The Official #5 Tennessee at Mizzou Weekend Game Thread (Game 1 Friday @ 7:30 PM) (Game 2 Saturday @ 4 PM) (Game 3 Sunday @ 2 PM)

[6-4-3]

Shoutout to the bullpen yesterday. Only 4 hits allowed over 6 innings.

Agree. Outstanding in both games. Should have most of the pen available today too if needed. I think Blade will shut them down.

 

[ArdentVol]

Go Bama beat Vandy

dont think i could pull for either having suffered 39 years trrying to survive what feels like a lifetime living near the crapstone

Weather delay in Nashville.

Niagara is up 2-0 over Fairfield, a rare ESPN+ stream.

Dammit, I'm gonna break some stuff.

 

[NorCalVol67]

Pitcher did a terrible job allowing a stolen base.

Wow, Niagara is 41/41 on stolen bases.

 

[ArdentVol]

and one or two more words about yesterday's TV crew

that comment about exposing SEC baseball failed to the poor state of officiating
they did offer positive remarks about Diamond Vols
GBO

 

[NorCalVol67]

Two ground rule doubles in a row.

Time to grab the sweep and head home. Hope Blade has another strong game today.

T5, Fairfield trails 6-1

Weather delay in Nashville.

Really rained hard with lightning around noon. Ceased for now but who knows?

After flipping from the Fairfield-Niagara game and they showed the game recap before the 5th inning started, and watching up to this point, Warren Nolan’s RPI system is seriously flawed, not to mention that some pollsters have Fairfield ranked #25. Now I’m no expert like some of the drive by posters of late but they are awful…..

They certainly haven’t played well today thus far but I can see them coming back in this one...6-4 now...

I could see them getting a top 16 seed, but I agree, RPI seems way too high given their SOS.

 

[NorCalVol67]

And they’ve played 0 out of conference games.

And no Quad 1 games/wins

It’s similar to a mid major basketball school being high up in the computer numbers. Once you look at overall resume, the committee adjusts their status and they fall back a bit.

“Feels like” temp in Columbia MO right now is 41 degrees. Gotta love that if you’re a pitcher.

I keep looking for Amish buggies in the background…probably a very scenic area in that neck of the woods

Fairfield tuition runs about $50,000 per year not including other costs associated with school

 

[therealitytheory]

Need to put them away early. Mothers Day gig at 4pm..

 

[vol66]
