2021 Regional Selection Show - Official Thread

We got the NCAA hose job.

Hose? Where we’re going we don’t need hose.

Highest scoring team in the entire league. The disrespect is real

TN also led the SEC in scoring in league play. Which competition is more impressive?

 

[peerless98]

Highest scoring team in the entire league.

Against teams that can't pitch or play D. They also lost 2 of 2 against Vandy and 3 of 3 against Bama. They are not at our level. Anything can happen in baseball, but this is not as tough of a draw as many are acting.

 

[VolnJC]

There was never any thought of that. Vitello mentioned mid week they were throwing Dallas on Friday.

Honestly I don't think there is that big drop-off in any of the 3...Blade has bigger upside and lowest ERA imo

 

[EZE]

Highest scoring team in the entire league. The disrespect is real

When the ump cries, “play ball,” respect/disrespect doesn’t mean a thing.

Friday at 6 p.m. on ESPN3 (which is say, streaming only).

I just figured out how to get ESPN3 via YouTubeTV so I am all set. Does not require the app.

I like Dallas vs Wright State.

I really like Tidwell vs Duke.

 

[vol66]

Hopefully Presbyterian, THE Blue Hose!!! Will take down The West End Gurls!

 

[Hallie]

How does Vandy get easier regional that us .. pathetic .. Vols screwed again ...

 

[TheBigOne10]

I would rather have a more favorable Super matchup anyway. I think once we get through Regional we are set up nicely

I like Dallas vs Wright State.

I really like Tidwell vs Duke.

I like Liberty to beat Duke.

I wouldn't be surprised to see LSU in the super.

 

[txbo]

I like Liberty to beat Duke.

Then I really, really like Tidwell vs Liberty.

 

[txbo]

I wouldn't be surprised to see LSU in the super.

Yea, their Skipper really gave them something to play for, didn't he?

 

[vol66]

I wouldn't be surprised to see LSU in the super.

That team is gonna be fired the F up for their coach!

 

[hUTch2002]

Ok but Duke and Wright State have both won 12 games in a row. Piss poor selections by the committee. We got hosed.

Opportunity for you to be negative about the team?

 

[youcancallmeAl]

Then I really, really like Tidwell vs Liberty.

i think LIberty will come in here real cocky and beat Duke. I'm glad we'll have Tidwell to face them.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I do think we will see LSU in the Super if we make it there.

 

[VolnJC]

I like Dallas vs Wright State.

I really like Tidwell vs Duke.

Can you or one of the regs give us noobs a breakdown of velocity and top pitches of the 3 starters? TIA

LOL. I'm just a casual fan but I do know Tidwell has been hitting upper 90s with his fastball. Seems like he gets faster every week.

 

[Catbone]

Opportunity for you to be negative about the team?

Nope. Negative about the jack asses on the committee with clear biases.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Anyone know the game times for Saturday and Sunday?

 

[Volsbaseballfan]

Breaking News. - UT is good at baseball.
Will have to play good , which they have all
Year , to get out of the regional. I don’t care who we play , if we play like we have been playing we will be fine. It’s never been or never will be easy to get to Omaha!!!
The road to Omaha will go through KNOXVILLE this year. I like our Chances, because of our Starting Pitching , Defense at every position,
Offense at all 9 spots , Coaching staff , bull pen , the mental toughness, the overall make up of this team and not to mention the gauntlet they just finished... this team is prepared to make a run !
I guess I look at things differently but I would be thinking if I was the other team... we have to play the the Freaking Tn Vols..... I love this team and I believe they play their best baseball from here on out against some very good teams. Easy no... fun!!! Yes !! Can’t wait!!!! Go Vols!!!

 

[TN_gal]

I do think we will see LSU in the Super if we make it there.

I was just about to say that I’m glad we won’t face any potential SEC matchup in the Super, then I realized LSU was in Eugene.

And now LSU fans are already chirping how they’ll come in Knoxville to steal our coach…

 

[VolPack22]

I would’ve thought the only team that had a claim over us for #2 would have been Vanderbilt because of the head to head. I thought Texas should’ve dropped to 4th. They lost to the 8 and 4 seed in their tournament and didn’t even make it to the championship. I felt we would probably get the 3 so I’m not really surprised there.
