Vandy has lost 2 series. Arkansas hasn?t lost any series off the top of my head. I think they win regular season Sec title. But things are tightening up.
Gonna be interesting next 3 weeks.

Btw way, I was watching Fl/Vandy game off and on. In 6 and 7th inning Vandy had two on no outs. Corbin had sac bunts both times and they were down 4 runs both times. Strange strategy to me. I think they got one run each inning.
Yeah that was dumb strategy wise. We're one back in the SEC though. We have a chance. We'll see how the South Carolina series goes and see where we stand.Quote:

Yeah, it was frustrating. The silver-lining, however, is we've responded really well since that weekend.Quote:

Arkansas is pretty clearly the best team in the country.
Man the Sec tournament will have as good as any regional in the country. Fact is may have more talent than the CWS this year.
Gotta have some luck getting that far IMO. Not always best teams advance, see 1989 team.
Interestingly enough SC is the only team to win a series against ARK.Quote:

I think it's very common for the SEC Tournament to have a better field than Omaha just because the NCAA has the system set up where some of the best teams will be eliminated before advancing to Omaha.Quote:

Matt said during one of our games that their two starting pitchers have been pitching 100 plus pitches every time they go out. It is catching up to them late in the season.
Rocker is probably fine. Big stature, and he's been a starter. Not so sure about the smaller leiter, who is in first year as sec starter. I'd put him on about a 70-75 pitch the next few weekends... maybe even skip a startQuote:
