*****CWS Game 1 vs Auburn Thread*****

Might as well burn Gordon.

Who knows if we rebound or not, but losing with Small throwing takes the wind out of your sails.

Agree, but the fact that we continue to be over aggressive, only to see Auburn throw a changeup or curveball, is embarrassing. It's players that aren't prepared or lack the maturity to have an approach at the plate

We found out in this game that our SRs & players that went to Omaha apparently learned nothing

This will be 3 straight losses in Omaha

That's the thing really. We've given up 4 runs and had 11 guys on base, 7 of which in scoring position. We've done enough to put ourselves in position to win but haven't gotten the clutch hit.

It's been completely obvious that Auburn is going soft with every critical pitch & we've made absolutely no adjustment.

Butch & his coaches have coached circles around Lemo & Geaux tonight. They had a plan & have executed it to perfection

Just amazing that we haven't made any adjustment to an obvious trend

---

Another great comment by you, oh if our coaches had told our guys to hit a home run... wow. I swear you have lost your mind. Great approach by them. We outhit them by 6.....but be smart how you hit them boys. That's what you are saying. Utterly stupid.

If you made me pick right now Lville will be pissed off at us and we will mope around and they will beat us by 4 or 5 runs

I?ve been an MSU fan for years, and, somehow, I?m still that happy schmuck who never sees the kick in the nards coming.

Anybody besides me that felt apprehensive about being in the bracket with two other SEC teams?

So basically its 1:57 at the bar and you're wearing clothes that are two sizes too small and all the women there have boyfriends

We will probably have a better chance against Louisville since they haven't played us. Butch knew just how to pitch us tonight. But I can't see us winning 4 in a row now to get out of this bracket.

We just look lifeless tonight. Absolutely no energy.

We all are. I don't know why I put myself through this shit over and over again

Assuming we lose, we really need to pull for auburn vs vandy. I don't wanna have to beat vandy 2 times.

In case you forgot, Oregon st lost game 1 last season. The road is gonna be tough, but it isn't over

Look at the bright side, a lot of our best MSU baseball teams don't even make Omaha (84, 89, 16). At least this one did so we should be happy right. :)
