The Official #1 Tennessee vs Kentucky SEC Tourney Game Thread (Saturday Time TBD EST SEC Network)

[Volfan1000]

The way things are looking, Tennessee COULD repeat the baseball tournament just like in basketball. Play Kentucky in the semis only to play A&M for the title...the odds of that....

It would be nice to beat Texas A&M for SEC Championships in two major sports after losing to them in football.

Go Big Orange!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FloraBama may take 5 hours to finish.

Watching a Bama baseball game is akin to colonoscopy-root canal combo.

That’s so damn good. I saw it earlier in twitter and have watched/sang along with it like 5 times

Do we have a starting pitcher announcement yet?

Chase Burns?

It was absolutely incredible. In the 5th inning when LSU scored 2, and threatened to tie or take the lead, their fan base rose in unison, chanting “LSU” “LSU” “Geax Tigers”. “Geaux Tigers.” It cut through the late night air. They were LOUD. It felt intense and intimidating - like a fanbase with proud history. You not only heard them. You FELT them. Everyone around me (Vols) was just like. “WOW.” …..and then something amazing happened ( the kind of event that makes the hair on your arms tingle) In the midst of the deafening roar of LSU fans, an army of Orange clad fans rose from their seats and countered with “Let’s go Vols” and “clap clap clap” for strike 2. For 60 seconds both fanbases (in unison) filled the night air until Dolly whizzes a ball by at 98 for strike. 3, and just like that, TN’s fan base served noticed that we too, have arrived.

Man, what an experience! I’m jealous but proud that you guys are getting to be a part of this.
You could feel the intensity through the TV!
All of you in Hoover have represented this fan base very well!

GO BIG ORANGE!!

You are a a great writer.
That gave me chills.

Willis,
I understand that the SEC uses this tourney format because it is similar to Omaha.

My question, why does Omaha use this format? Instead of having two pods, why not have a true double elimination?

Short story to accommodate TV broadcast. Believe I am ok with the current format.

What’s the difference in an oral thermometer and a rectal thermometer?

Probably will announce after the LSU-UK cat fight.

One of the best post I have read on here in a long time. That’s gets my blood pumping to read that. GBO

LSU thinking last year was just a fluke and things would fall way off for us.
It’s gotta be hard for them to stomach.

We are going to drop our stuff at the hotel quickly and then come over to the game. My son is 11 so I am sure he will like it. Thank for the tip! Maybe I will see you there.

One last tip, if you or the wife have the clear bag thing, makes going through metal detectors quicker. I’m flying solo for 1st session and I’ve had to empty my pockets 3 times already.
