The Official #1 Tennessee @ Evansville Knoxville Super Regional Game 2 Thread (Sat. June 8th 11AM EST) (ESPN2)

[Switch 625]

Last call! Quit swinging at crap! Work the count and get on base!

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Game 3 tomorrow. Will we get lucky to win?

 

[VFL1127]

Let's go guys, start a rally!!

 

[utVolFanInVA]

Dude trying to get hit again. Steps into the plate every pitch

Yes, this is why he got called back on his last review. If you watch the replay, his toe comes down out of the batter's box. Negates being hit by pitch.

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Antigua looked like he wanted to push Burke out of the way.

I mean, as 2nd base.. if he calls off Burke it’s Antigua’s ball

 

[NOLAPhil]

Pluses about tmmrrw. They will be pitching someone from the pep band
Minuses if our bats from today show up, said pitcher will get drafted.

 

[Orange931]

Game 3 tomorrow. Will we get lucky to win?

Nope, season over and this team is overrated……..

 

[BreatheUT]

That’s fine, but right now I do not give 0 effs how the Evansville fans feel. I care about how we feel.

Do you realize you are making the same type of posts that I defended you on yesterday when someone called you out?

Please tell us who are those drive by posters you want out of here because we are all pissed at different levels and different ways how the game has turned out.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I still don’t understand why people listen to espn announcers.
Perfectly good Vol Network to be listened to or, at worst, mute the TV. Much healthier alternative.
TV announcers are atrocious, especially ESPN.

People only say this when we're losing. When we win they kiss our asses just like everyone else. It's called that's how they've been for like 30-40 years at least.

 

[BP4Prez]

We had the advantage today, too.

It’s baseball. That’s why it’s a series

 

[Zues1]

We had the advantage today, too.

We had Beam, stayed too long. Then Kirby

 

[utvolpj]

a team that gets mad at a result and starts taking it out on each other can snowball very fast. Hope that’s not what I’m seeing, but they look angry in a self pitying sense right now.

Now you're just making up stupid crap to bitch about

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

CMO is somewhere else today.

Plus all those other guys on the team.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Nothing wrong with hoping for it but some posters state it as if it is a fact.

Well we should have destroyed the guy. We didn’t. When judging a pitcher his ERA says a lot. A terrible pitcher made us look really bad. It shouldn’t have happened.

 

[RAVOL]

Garcia working nicely!

He looked very relaxed and confident. Don't know why Nate was so uncomfortable but he was and its baseball

 

[Volstylexx]

Folks were saying they shot their shot with their best pitching yesterday and we had too much pitching to lose today. Folks said Evansville wouldn't win a game in Knoxville and the Vols would sweep. Methinks folks are whistling past the graveyard. The pressure tomorrow will be off the charts for UT while Evansville is playing with house money and nothing to lose. They'll also be the media and nations darling for the next 24 hours. I'll be curious to see how this team responds. Not sure there are words to describe what a loss tomorrow would bring.

Folks were saying it... because they did. This isn't basketball or football where the talent is essentially the same game to game. It's a 3 game series for a reason, and the talent gap shows largest in game three. We've seen it all season long. Sure we would have loved to have finished this thing today, but let's not act like tomorrow is a coin toss on odds.

 

[VolGee4]

Lot of people posing as Vol fans that obviously are not posting in here today.

Kind of sad how some fans just give up.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

That’s actually a bad thing in these parts.

That doesn’t even make cents hUTch.

 

[Christian Lowe]

Now you're just making up stupid crap to bitch about

no one has to make anything up to bitch about right now.

 

[Drewbydoo]

Take the walks.

 

[volplaya8]

Blake sets the table!

 

[CAVPUT]

Years from now, "Remember back in '24 when Vols were up 4-0 and 5 innings from a trip to Omaha as the clear #1?"

Just like the path opened up for us in hoops only to be a footnote in our long history against Cinderella foes.

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Take the walks.

Bare minimum, get this PC up so he done for tomorrow too

I just meant he really wanted to catch that pop-up.

 

[VFL1127]

Duck on the pond! Time for a Billy barrel!
