Especially not when you're a national seed. That's just how it is. Hopefully it works out, but that doesn't make it less of a stupid decision. And if we don't win the regional - it's on Cohen for this bullshit.

You are going to blame Cohen if we don't win it? Really. What else's is new? You would blame him if we lost no matter who started! And who really gives a flying **** what you think. He damn sure doesn't.

We need this first win. Cohen needs to get this first win to instill confidence in the team.

Yep, & ULL regional already in a delay.

Is our game not starting on time? The WatchESPN link hasn't moved from upcoming to live.

Not seeing it either. We're not blacked out, are we?

Isn't SEMo the better hitting team (or should I say CSF the worse hitting team)?

To me, I think it's a mistake to simplify it down to, "our ace vs the best pitching staff we're likely to face in game 2. I think it makes sense to use our ace vs the better hitting team, regardless of who they are pitching, and trust Sexton to be more than enough to handle CSF's hitters better than CSF's ace can handle our hitters.

Let's not forget how very damn good Sexton is, and how weak CSF's hitting has been.

Yeah, I have the same issue. Still, at 1:35.

ESPN3 has it on now. Breaking out the Purity vodka today! Omaha here we come

Watch ESPN is showing no games past 1:00 PM starts. Are we blacked out or not even worthy of streaming?

Just takes a couple minutes to go from upcoming to live now. It's up now.

The most important game is the first one. I agree with throwing Hudson. I hope he's better than he was against LSU in the SEC tournament.

Well, keep us up to date. May have to break out my iPad.

Groundout to Lowe starts the game for Huddy.

Yeah, got it now.

It's on now, but have you noticed they are behind the live action?

Hudson Ks the second batter.

Ground out, K... 2 down.

They're always behind by maybe a minute or two.
