The Official Evansville @ #1 Tennessee Knoxville Super Regional Game 3 Thread (Sun. June 9th 7:06PM EST) (ESPNU)

Ummm Travis Bazzana is one of the best bats in the country. He will be a top 5 pick.

Lol..wish he’d get it going soon and inflict some run damage in Lex

It’s crazy that all teams in Omaha may be from two conferences - SEC and ACC.

I find it remarkable the Big 10 can't put more than 3 teams in the tournament. The Sun Belt had more than that

@preacherman20 Super proud of Kirbs. A one of a kind young man, for sure. Proud of his hard work and the kind of guy he is. Truly a VFL.

I second this! @preacherman20 it's been a privilege watching your son the last few years.

 

[TheBigOne10]

Well if @OrngeJuiceJones is going, we may just have a chance to win the Jell-O shot competition in Omaha lol.

Funny how some posters didn't show up at all during the game today....funny how that works

 

[ArdentVol]

Same for me. I said several times he wasn’t a weekend pitcher but I was proven wrong.

He has had a great year and is getting better when it matters most.

it's healthy to confess

 

[vol94]

Everyone have a great night. What a great way to end the weekend.


Go Vols!

 

[VOLtaism]

This was absolutely a game they could not afford to lose, great response on both pitching and hitting. I was sweating bullets for them.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Tell your son @greasemachine that he is a damn stud and has been absolute NAILS these past 3 weeks. Can’t wait to watch him pitch in Omaha.

 

[Volstylexx]

Just want to add that 35% of ya'll on here yesterday and early today don't deserve to celebrate this. The way you trashed this team, coach, and put all that negative energy out into the baseball universe was sickening. You know who you are.

For everyone else, lifelong fans, recent fans, or casual observers. Congrats. What Tony V has done here isn't something that happens in baseball. Enjoy the ride.

Just the way we like it!!!

 

[Bigvalley84]

Just got home from the game , that was awesome , big shout out to Zander and the entire offense

 

[VFFL@THE BEACH]

Right off the bat, I think our toughest game in the CWS will be the first one with Florida State. I am not 100% sure how we match up but they hit well and score lots of runs.

That is his Aunt…. @greasemachine expect a text from me in a day or two!!! Enjoy tonight!

Don't sell your current self short Prof

I definitely dug deeper today, think it was a combo of having been at yesterday’s game, with sad kids, also Notre Dame game 3, and then wearing a dark mode Ortega shirt with a daddy coat over it. It was a potent mix for mischief.

Only KY could have a no hitter going for 6 innings and be tied 2 - 2

You wore the coat? You legend!

You called it. And I teared up.

What a great moment. Hope Preacherman enjoyed.

Name names!!!! I’ll get the popcorn!

So, I discovered something new today. I didn’t wear the coat during the game, but whenever we hit a Dong! I would shake the coat in the air to the beat of Rocky Top! It seemed to work. But, you bet your ass I donned the coat as soon as the last out was made!

Classy post. Y’all gave us all we could handle. Team, Coach, Fans, much respect. Be safe in your travels.
