Absolutely should have swept UT and aTm. Have to give aTm credit they put grinder us, but still should have won that game.

Because they won 1 game against the averages. Is what it is. Tell me you fear that team?

They prolly think they shoulda won 2 outta 3. It is what it is and we are what our SEC record says we are...not everybody in the league however can say that

We've only had four-five games this year where I would say we just got our ass kicked. The other five-six were one-two run games where things didn't go our way or something weird happened.

The winning run was on the bases because the ump had his head in his ass. A&M guy was walking back to the dugout before the ump told him to go to first. Everyone saw strike 3 but the guy behind the plate. Saying that, if Gilbert did anything but hit into a double play then we run out the starter early.

Having Mangum up with the bases loaded is as much of a sure run as anything in college baseball.

Their batting averages as individuals and as a team say different.

In a lot of sports, but especially in baseball, you can always go back and say “we should have done this, we should have won that”. Truth is, though, we have a handful if not more wins that the losing team could say the same thing. We are what we are.

When you play a game and get shutout I'm not sure how you can really say you should have won that game. Yes, we had chances to score when we didn't but so did A&M. We've only had 10 losses this year but 2 of them have been by a 1-0 score.

Yeah, but aTm really didn't have a shot, except for the one time the ump let them score. We had like 3 chances in the 1st 5 innings. We love hitting in the double play.

FYI, I’m not trying to be negative. This was just a general statement regarding the 2 that we lost were pitching gens by us, and by UT and aTm. The only difference is that we didn’t give up a run to UT without the Plumlee mistake, but we also didn’t have a hit after that inning as well if I’m not mistaken. It’s easy to say this after the fact, but it’s just 2 games that we left on the table that were winnable.

As long as we get a national seed, it's irrelevant.

We 'shoulda' won 10 football games .. We 'shoulda' not got beaten by a 12 seed in the NCAAT .. BUT I can understand NOT getting sweeps on the road.

That A&M Pitcher in the first game of the DH was dynamite. We worked counts well and had his pitch count inflated. If that is a 9 Inning game I think we get the sweep. Give them credit though that guy pitched lights out.

"No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference."

― Tommy Lasorda

We're 15-9 in the SEC so that means we're currently 7-1 in the "other third" category with six left to play. It seems like we're getting better and better every week so I like our chances to continue the trend.
