Come on Bracewell, that was way too good of a pitch on 0-2.

Too much plate on 0-2 Ben

I'm sure he's not real thrilled with a few players.

I'm going to pull a Hugh Freeze and say that we just have to recruit a few better hitters so that this doesn't happen again.

I'm not sure batting a much weaker hitter just to get a "matchup" is even in the book. Yes, for equivalent hitters it makes sense but having a matchup just for the sake of having a matchup is dumb.

What Cadaver stated means its specifically not coaching from the numbers. The gut tells you to go with a matchup, the numbers say thats not always going to be the case.

Well, if we don't win today it looks like we will be playing on Tuesday. SC up 3-2 in the 8th now still with the bases loaded and 1 out.

Nice. Now we need to come thru and get some help from Faggies to hang our banner****

But TAMU is that school that seems to never win (or lose) when you need them to. SEC has one in every sport.

Big strike out

17 TAMU. Ole Miss now up 6-5

Bunting skills must not be taught in high schools anymore. If your name isn't Vanderbilt you likely are going to have issues with it.

Everyone talks about what a great fit they are for the SEC- and they just seem to 17 things up.

Shocking**

I sincerely hope they lose out in the SEC Tournament and get left at home.

So, why would SC have tie breaker over us?

Because they beat Ole Miss two out of three.

Doesn't matter, bc if we lose we are a 2 seed at best anyway. Not that I feel we have a shot at hosting regardless. Would be nice to win the tourney, but other than that, a bye means nothing if we lose today

Highest ranked common opponent?

I believe SC gets the tiebreak over us due to results against OM. They took 2 from OM while we only took 1. I'm still amazed we are going to finish no worse than 18-12 in the league. That is squeezing about as much as you can from a team with an offense as anemic as ours.

Man, this ump can kiss my ass.
