    Wasted a gem of a performance by Stephen bc we wanted to get freaking cute. Ridiculous. I’ve been kemp’s biggest supporter. And I still am behind him. But I’m losing faith FAST! If we get swept by Florida, and I think we will, then I’m done with him

    Year 6 and look where we are, I will say it's early but we did blow a huge opportunity last night, another bad coaching decision with 6-2 lead. It will be interesting to see how we handle the loss today.

    "That's baseball", seems to be factor now.

    The judges scored the first round 100-99 Florida. We slugged toe to toe on the road against #6 and came up a little short. Two more rounds to go in this prize fight; it's far from over. Our Dawgs are prison tough and will be ready for Round 2. Don the wife beater and leather jacket. Time to go to war again today.

    We lost. But Lemonis brought in two of our most successful arms in Davis and Auger. They just didn’t get it done. If he had left Schuelke in and he had gotten hit, everyone would have griped about that and said “why didn’t the idiot bring in Davis who has been lights out this season”. Too many posters on these message boards have the benefit of hindsight.

    If I have a complaint on Lemonis, and most college baseball coaches, it’s that they try too much to manage like MLB. Major leaguers are more consistent, so they have defined roles often (setup guy, closer, etc). College players lack maturity and consistency so sometimes you just need to ride the hot hand. If a terrible hitter is hot, ride him until he cools off. If your middle relief guy is hot, don’t yank him just because it’s the 9th and the book says to bring in a closer. Because all of these guys are up and down.

    I figured once it got close we would lose. We seem to have 'terrible losses' over and over in conference play in whatever sport. If a game gets close we usually find a way to crap the bed. KY loss at the buzzer at home in basketball, SC in OT at home in basketball, the LSU comeback that fell short at home in baseball by a run, and the loss last night to Florida in a game where we can't cleanly field a ground ball to end it on one hitter and the next hitter we throw 2 balls in the dirt for a walk after having a 2-2 count and only being one strike away from the win. So far every baseball win has been by at least 5 runs. Its tough sledding being an MSU fan these days but whatever conference games we do win we seem to win handily. If it gets close just go ahead and prepare yourself for a loss.

    Well, when you have Landon Sims that's a good strategy. We don't have that kind of guy on the back end anymore though.

    I get what you're saying, 100% and always enjoy your takes. Losing sucks. I guess you have to take an overview and some perspective. 2 years of men's basketball in nova tournament, women's basketball team having some success, softball team is playing very well, baseball is a work in progress but scrapping and fighting, the football team sucked but we have a new and exciting coach. While i would like to win it all in every thing our teams are good and competitive(losing makes me sick), I like the fact we seem headed in right direction with most of our teams(baseball yet to be determined this year. I lived through so many years of our teams(outside of baseball) being bad to mediocre, that being good(maybe not elite) and competitive makes me believe we are headed in right direction. Jmho which dint count for much lol!

    I think we get swept @UF and @Ark. Lose 2 of 3 against @OM (then beat them in Pearl) and @ Vandy. Win 2 of 3 against UGA at home, Bama at home, Mizzou at home and then we sweep Auburn at home. That will put us 14-16 and we sneak in
