Not sure that is true.

If we lose tonight we are out.

That’s stupid! Should be double elimination on your side of the bracket until you reach the championship game. Very unfair for us if we play LSU again. Would have been unfair for them too if they had beat us last night. It’s hard to beat a really good team back to back.

 

[Weezer]

They should just switch to single elimination for the whole tournament if they're just going to switch back to single elimination at the end. Why reward the losers in the middle of the tournament rather than the ones who make it further along?

Problem is it would be Monday before it was over with if continue all the way as double elimination. nCAA brackets come out Noon on Monday.

I fell asleep in the 4th, no bourbon. Woke up @ 6a to a win. I wonder how the hangovers are going for VN today. Hopefully not too bad.

Slight headache and I need a nap. Otherwise all good.

Tell the NCAA to wait. We're the SEC, dammit.

The entire tournament before a tournament, after a reg season is just dumb. Esp to be played on 1 field, with double elim, then changing to 1. Just silly.

Hope we win just to spite the SEC.

 

[Weezer]

If we get eliminated by a team that has already lost in the tournament, I'm going to feel cheated.

They did not change anything. This was the setup going in. Known before it ever started.

and its really really silly

 

[Weezer]

At this point, they should just make the other games meaningless and have us play A&M for the championship.

Main reason is so all of the final teams don't wreck their pitching staffs before NCAA regional start.

What can I say…bourbon got the best of me. Fell asleep in the 4th and woke up at 1:30 am to a win.

Mood…

Don’t let it happen again.

Whoever we play will be playing 2 games and the second game is late. Our opponent also will have to manage their pitchers for 3 games in 36 hours...regardless of who we play tonight we still have a pretty good advantage going in...

It's still BS that we could be eliminated by a team that's already lost.

I don't disagree. But we were the beneficiary of it last year....

Just want to say I am also praying for these requests even though I didn't have time yesterday or much this week to post. I know I appreciate all those prayers for me!!! (Husband has not drank again 3 months!!!!!! ) So many good people on here! If you don't like it then scroll on by until you find something you do like which is what everyone does. Obviously there's a lot that appreciates having friends to turn to in a time of need.

That is so good to hear!!!

Well, we all knew that two days ago…It seems that the powers that be would know that as well and should have changed the tournament to single elimination the entire time at that point. It’s just a very unfair set up for the teams who win all the way until the finals of their bracket.

I almost never stop and watch a video that long on this site. I felt compelled to do so. Very glad I did.

Yeah...that was cool

They never changed anything. The set up was same one used last year too. The weather just caused shifting of some start times. And as someone said earlier, we benefited from this last year.

I just finished watching the game. I recorded it and watched it this morning. Great pitching by Dollar man! I really like how UT came back with 2 runs right after LSU had cored two and got it to 3-2. You know that had to knock the wind out of their sails. Then of course we had fly gate. Walsh left out there exposed to the world and not one teammate helped him out. HAHA! I died laughing when they showed the UT dugout and the players are checking their zippers but not one of them told Walsh. LOL I do admire Walsh's concentration through it all. Great game by the awesome VOLS! GBO!!!

Wonderful to hear about your husband! I will continue to pray for God's peace, love, and strength to fill him up as he battles this demon. Prayers for you as you walk with him and encourage him. God has paid the price for all of our sins. All we have to do is be willing to accept the grace of that act and walk in freedom. You and everyone will always have people ready and willing to pray for you here.

Back at the ER. Fever and swelling over her right eye for our little girl. The swelling had initially went down but has come back. About to do scans. Would still gladly appreciate prayers. Thank you guys.

Prayers
God’s got ya

 

[RiseToTheTop]

These teams not named UT have no pitching left. None of these guys can get an out right now lol.
