Need a 3-1 week over Mississippi and Bama. Keep the RPI climb going. Mississippi is at 28 currently and Bama 17

Lemon’s got this!
Huge series win. This team is frustrating at times but keep doing this and everyone will be back on board.
Nothing seems to come easy with this team. Glad our 3rd baseman finally hit a homer. No reason it should have taken him this long. Hope he can dial 9 more often moving forward. Would be huge to get him and DJ going.
And how about the play Kohler made throwing out that runner at home on the bouncer behind third in bottom 8? Saved the game right there.Quote:

I will admit we are ahead of where I thought we would be in SEC play right now. If not for our non-con, we would be sitting pretty. What makes me mad is that we could be better in the SEC if not for a combo of player and coaching mistakes throughout those close losses. This team can infuriate me and make cheer with each inning played. I just cant figure out how to judge the job Lemo has done this year. So many variables to think about on whether to keep him or not. Hopefully we just keep winning and it doesn’t matter. But I just want him to be good enough to get us back to Omaha at the rate comparable to the other top school.
Hell of a play that made that ending possible. Should be top 10 worthy for the week, especially in how significant is wasQuote:

The ending had to sting for Vandy. Ha.

Maybe so. But I bet the female AD at Vandy makes him quietly apologize to the female reporter for replying with snarky responses that essentially insinuated she was a dumb girl asking stupid questions. They were stupid questions. Except for "why did you decide to pitch to Hines in the 9th?"Quote:

OUCH!Quote:

Yeah I pitch to Hines too. The one time I was glad Hujsak was hitting behind him.Quote:

Man this team. They are game as hell I can tell you that much.
You have to pull for them. I'm back on the bandwagon but feel punch drunk from the pummeling my fandom has taken the last couple of months. Lemons needs to stay out of the way and let the chips fall.
I love this post! I can't give you anymore rep!Quote:

If he had to do it over, he'd do the same thing. Hines' splits vs Lefties are terrible, but he got one. We've been on the wrong side of too many "That's baseball" moments for the last two years. About time we get on the right side of one.Quote:

If we can keep him where he is and keep ramping up Ligon, our backend could be night and day from where it was a month ago.
Right. He struggles with lefty breaking balls no reason to throw him anything else! Glad they did though lol!Quote:

Meh, I still have doubts, but it will play out. No use worrying about it at this point. Best thing is to just hope we win every game we play, as always, and enjoy it.Quote:
