MSU vs. Tennessee Game 1 Thread

[whosyourdawgy]

The players didn't come thru with clutch hits, but the players that didn't come thru were there because Cohen totally ****ed this game up. First of all having Vickerson at the DH is just absolutely dumb as shit. How many times did he strike out and kill our momentum? Then losing Collins because we HAVE to put in Randolph to catch Lindgren(who sucked tonight too). What did Randolph do at the plate tonight when he got a chance? Struck out every freaking time he batted and failed to get the bat on the ball on a dumbass hit and run call that got Pirtle thrown out at 3rd. Momentum killer not to mention he didn't catch shit. That move alone I think cost us this game. We had the bases loaded in the 8th and the 9th. When the bases got loaded in the 8th, Walker K'd which is where Collins shoulda been, Vick K'd, and then our only hope Armstrong K'd(which is unusual). Then in the 9th we load the bases up again with one out and Heck pops up then Walker again ends it.

So the players didn't get the hits, but the coach and his management of the game is what had the players not in the game that needed to be there to have our best shot at getting those hits.

We needed to sweep this very average UT team. Instead we are in the hole again on a Friday like we started the SEC off with and will have to hope that Ross can once again come and get us a W tomorrow. Hopefully Cohen will set a good lineup tomorrow and not **** with it during the game so we will have a chance to have more than 2 hitters in a row that can actually hit the freaking ball!
