It's going to be tough to stay away from this shit.

UVA and TCU should take them out.
We pull for Texas Tech game 1.
No one to blame but ourselves. If wanted to keep em out of Omaha, we should've manned up last weekend and done it ourselves. Screw em! We're gonna stomp a mudhole in them thanksgiving
I thought Washington/ULL would too.
The ONLY good thing to come out of this crap is that they didn't get to dogpile in Oxford in front of us. Dead Injuns looking out for us.
If they had to go to Omaha this season, I'm glad it went through ULL and not by beating us 2-0 in Oxford.
You can really see how bad our hitting was now. They pitched us pretty well 5 games deep. They didn't have enough arms to last 3 against the bears.
completely amplified everything that was wrong with us.Quote:

We never forced them deep into their pen. OM did the last two nights and it paid off, mainly with walks and extra base runners.
I agree with this.Quote:

Luckily they don't care about baseball as a fan base....or that's what they've said the last 42 years while we've been going to Omaha and they haven't anyway.
This is all Polk's fault...Thanks Polk, and Thanks LT*
much as anyone but they are playing extremely well right now. I think they'll beat UVA and to be honest, it wouldn't surprise me at all if they don't make a run to the finals. If they get there, look out.
They're winning the NC.
Come back off the ledge they will be coming home a week from todayQuote:

Texas, Virginia, or UCI will win itQuote:

Yea, no question it's hard to believe it finally happened. Hopefully, they go 0-2 and this minor disaster goes away.Quote:

Watching the last 2 games OM played ULL just etched in my mind how we TOTALLY blew the second game against ULL. Both series played out similarly in that ULL REALLY fed off the emotion of the crowd the first game against us and the first game against OM. They ripped us both new ones in those games primarily off of emotion, but after things settled down it was pretty obvious that ULL was just a very good team that played in a very weak league. Not a great team. The ONLY reason we didn't beat them the 2nd game we played and OM did was that OM didn't beat themselves like we did and OM has a significantly better offense than we do. But if you remember ULL did almost nothing offensively the second game and score FIVE runs off 2 singles. We crapped the bed with walks, hit batsman, misplays and the umps didn't help either. ULL scored less against OM the last 2 games than the 5 runs they got off us but actually had many more hits off OM pitching in those games than against us in the last game. OM just made plays in the field and didn't give away bases with walks and HBP so they move on and we sit home.
OM is hot rite now and playing good ball. What a lot of you are missing is that their style doesn't usually do well in Omaha. We'll see how they do but they are starting with what is probably the most talented team there in virginia. If they can beat them twice to get to the final series then they more than deserve to go.
Yep, if they beat VA in the first game then I think there is a very high likelihood they make the championship series.Quote:
