At least the TN Vols brand is out there front & center for all to see that we are relevant.

Not sure I want the redneck trash-the-field, run your mouth "brand" we are right now.

A rough day @ work and ended worse w a TN loss. The sun will come up tomorrow and I’m confident this team will bounce back as too much leadership on this team.

Have a good night and see y’all tomorrow and ready for a better outcome. Go Vols!

 

[Stoerner Fumbles]

Time for a change then. It’s just a word. 12 year olds use it casually while they game online. Some things are outdated. Lol

Everybody knows the rules before the game starts. Rule changes happen between seasons, not during games.

 

[Halph66]

Lots of talk on Twitter and online about Norte Dame throwing their ACE tomorrow…. As If our ACE wasn’t lit up tonight. It could go as badly for him tomorrow as it went for ours tonight. He’s 9-2 on the year.

So far, all the hot air about ND has been correct. They have a good pitching platoon, solid in the field, and they are not afraid of the bright lights.
They just put all the pressure squarely on the Vols. GBO! Quiet the noise.

Is Gilbert suspended for the game tomorrow?

Yep

 

[DazzleVol]

You are missing the point too. It has nothing to do with the 3 game suspension rule. My opinion is that he should not have been thrown out in the first place!!!

That's kinda automatic too tho ... if a bench coach comes out to argue he is gone.. it's why he got tossed so quick

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Is Gilbert suspended for the game tomorrow?

That's the rumor being spread about.

Well, then get divorced.

 

[Weezer]

Whatever happens tomorrow, I love this team. It's been a fun season. I hope things break our way, but no matter what, this season has been awesome.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Why do you get to post that and I can't make a comment about the calls without flashback!!! I swear, you guys are so sexist.

Lol go take a stab at the rant

 

[VolsSportsFan]

we are the Alabama of football, the New England Patriots with Tom Brady. Folks hate winners.

Mmmmmm....yeah I don't think we're there yet.

 

[Vtonerider]

You are missing my point by a country mile

There was a point?

 

[Rizzo924]

Same umps but they rotate around the diamond. Home plate ump will be int the field tomorrow.

Which way do they rotate? Wilkerson said 1B ump is Big10. Don’t like that option

 

[Juanita]

Maybe you should get back to the kitchen and start making sammiches for tomorrow.

Will do. But, you aren't invited.

 

[Halph66]

Wouldn’t surprise me if he is behind the plate time tomorrow. I’m not sure how umpires rotate.

Clockwise around the diamond. Plate ump moves to third. 1st base ump behind the plate.

 

[Jimmy Football]

Whatever happens tomorrow, I love this team. It's been a fun season. I hope things break our way, but no matter what, this season has been awesome.

Yes. Baseball isn’t basketball: it’s more than just the tourney.*

*Still really wanna win it, though.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

GO BIG Orange .... let's take Game 2 tomorrow & then Sunday's Game 3.

 

[Volstylexx]

Mmmmmm....yeah I don't think we're there yet.

point being people love to hate us because they aren’t us.

 

[Volfan1000]

I thought this was an SEC umpiring crew working this regional.

 

[Weezer]

Will do. But, you aren't invited.

I'm never invited.

Hope you’re right. Would really love to get back to the CWS and show out.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

*Still really wanna win it, though.

Not sure I really agree with this; it's still a tournament sport. Programs are still judged by how many titles and CWS you've been to.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

“You just stand there. I could say so much, but I won’t go there because I don’t want to”.

 

[Vtonerider]

Well, then get divorced.

Brick-bat funny!

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

point being people love to hate us because they aren’t us.

And they're shocked that we are so fabulous at this.
It's like we came out of nowhere to be so good all season long.
