I fully expect them to change the clearly defined rules and reschedule Game #3 for tomorrow.

Is there really a rule that says it must be played tonight?

It's great to be a Tennessee Vol.

Makes sense. Too little time until the WS is a disadvantage. Hell, it's already a disadvantage for the winner.

Black jerseys for a late night game let's go

But it makes no sense to have 2 teams (Tex/Stanford in same boat) that would be in bracket 1, which means they'd play on Friday, not finish supers until Monday. If you're going to have teams finish supers on Monday, make them bracket 2 teams, which don't play until Saturday.

With that said, it may make sense to finish tonight, but is there a rule that says so?

Everyone knows the NCAA has an unblemished record of selectively enforcing or deliberately turning a blind eye to its own rules.

We're all looking for oblique signs and weighing possibilities while dismissing the letter of the law like people do confronted with fiat powers in third-world states.

I believe there is.

They did just release the CWS schedule and we would play Saturday at 7 if we advance.

But I have not seen any rules that it has to finish tonight. Seen some twitter/Reddit posts saying Tuesday is the deadline but none of them have been able to show any rule that has a definitive ruling

Pontiac is such a weird brand. They had some horrible designs and some wonderful designs. Right before they shuttered they had put out a top notch sports car design that would've helped them had they gotten to it years before. I forget the name of it (wasn't in production long).

Question: I know they have to play the game tonight or cancel. Is there a time cutoff? Does Cinderella get the CWS slippers at midnight, where the team winning at 12am advances? If this goes into 14 innings at 3 am do they call it a draw (Advancing Vols) or keep playing? If they're allowed to play to through the night then why can't they break and finish tomorrow?

 

[Orange.]

Don't let the b--tards get you down!

 

[SoilVol]

Absurd

247 poster is saying it could be played through tomorrow. Then it's cut off.

Surely there is something definitive here.

Those are good questions and tbh, the NCAA has a lot to answer for. The game could've been played earlier if anyone had bothered looking at a weather forecast. You know at all this week.

Borderline cheating given the time difference.

 

[crawdaddyjc]

my bed time is at 9. guess i wont know results until tomorrow morning. gotta get up way too early and hit the road for work. oh well.

GOVOLS. I BELIEVE!!!! ️

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Preach.

Yep! Said this earlier today that it should have been a 12pm start time. Stupid to try to play it at 6!

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Worst run regional of all time. From the host decision, delays/scheduling, trying to serve sausage on a bun to our players under the metal bleachers in btw said weather delays. Just horrible man. They knew what they were doing. Just an embarrassing look for the NCAA per usual.

Texas/Stanford are in the same bracket as us. The other side of the bracket were Friday-Sunday games.
