The Official #4 Tennessee @ #15 South Carolina Weekend Thread (Game 1 Thursday @ 7PM) (Game 2 Friday @ 7PM) (Game 3 Saturday @ Noon)

Next 3 days are going to drag on forever. My 4 yr old has spent the last 2 hrs going through how many more days we have until we’re at the game and what are we supposed to do until then 😂.

🤣🤣 I know the feeling. Ecstatic for both you and your son. These types of experiences are priceless. These memories will last a lifetime.
 
Oregon lost...so who gets the west coast national seed?

Arizona. I think UO was down the line for a top 8 anyway but they still have one more with Stanford tomorrow and a series vs. Cal.

I think TCU could be on the outside looking in now. They’ve lost 3 series in a row including 2 bad ones to ULM and K-State. They lost the TX and TTU series which are their two marquee series and went 1-2 in the Big 12-SEC tournament. So 3-6 in the 9 toughest games they played. Their SOS aside I’m not sure their resume screams national seed. I’m biased but I’d argue us going 6-6 vs UF, SCar, Ark, Vandy is as good or better than them going 8-4 vs TX, TTU, Ok St and Baylor (their 4 biggest league series).
 
You guys have broke me from getting on here on game days. Not the regulars but the ones who have gotten on the wagon the last few weeks. Go Vols! You asked mindset and I can sum it up with they have bought into Vitello's mindset of one game at a time. They are not talking about the future just the next game. Son had no clue who is pitching Wednesday. Speculation among fans at the game was that it would be mid-week mindset on Wednesday, then Dallas and weekend guys and no one throwing more than they usually do in a week to be ready for Regionals. They do see the big picture but are not talking about it. This week is Hoover then move on from there. I think if they keep that mindset then everything is ok.
On who they want to play, I don't think they care. Each team in SEC is tough and brings different things to the table. I think it is great that Ark and Vandy are on the opposite side but no cakewalk. I would personally like to see Alabama win. I can promise you no one wants to play us right now. One pitch, one catch, one throw, on hit at a time. We can play with anyone. I do think we need to have a good showing at Hoover to get that higher seed. They have proven that they try to give the higher seeds the better pools but no easy pools in baseball.
 
Arizona lost to Oregon State ..Im sure they would like to give a national seed to a west team but I'm not sure how you could give it to Zona when they will probably not even win their league
