    Never been more glad to see a game end. Nice day even WITH all the drama.

    We'll take it. Just says "Win" in the win/loss column....not "dramatic, heart wrenching, wins over subpar teams".

    I'm just concerned on how this will transfer over to our SEC play. I'm glad we have won 10 games, but the lack of consistency is going to kill us on the weekends.

    Just crazy that we pick that situation to give Mangum his first pitching experience (at least that I'm aware of). Glad we survived it.

    At this point anything over 10 wins in the SEC and I will be very pleasantly surprised.

    It's good to win those two games and the first three this weekend. We win tomorrow and then beat UAPB- not exactly a given with this team- and then all of a sudden we're 12-6 headed into SEC play. The thing that upsets me is we should be no worse than 14-4 with a loss to Texas Tech and two on the road to Oregon and some pretty nice wins over La Tech, Oregon, and Texas Tech.

    We have talent. Some of it is young- like Blaylock and Skelton. I think the biggest thing that has killed us overall is our pitching staff management. We're leaving guys in too long- and it's making it a LOT harder on us. And has already cost us a few games. And it could have cost us two more today. Cann has to improve in that area if he wants to reach our goals. I'm pretty sure a lot of it is Henderson- and I think part of it is Cann maybe not being totally comfortable with him. It has to be kind of awkward when your pitching coach has more head coaching experience than the actual head coach.

    It's a good thing that the SEC looks like it's down this year and we don't have Florida or Vandy on the schedule.

    We'll let the Clarion-Ledger and the people in Nashville handle that.

    Not having four games in a weekend should help Cann out some. If Pilkington pitches like he capable we will win some of his games too. We need to get Rigby back to 100% as well.

    Not playing vandy and Florida may be a bad thing. They look pretty bad at the moment. And of course, I'm playing... they won't be down long
