Just hard to believe we have yet another choke job in Omaha

 

[BigALWiLson]

Sorry but this stuff is just as much on Coaches as players. These guys have not been mentally ready to play this game outside of CMO.

You get a day off in between games. Snead can pitch again Sunday. And if we lose today the season is done anyway. We aren’t winning 4 in a row.

The field is wide open when you have our offense. We’re probably one of two teams in the CWS that could win from the losers bracket. You can’t turn a game one loss into an 0-2 exit.

I am only 35 but I genuinely believe I won’t live to see the next time UT wins a natty in any sport.

Point?

 

[LLcoolDave]

c'mon Hunter...good AB

rally time

 

[BP4Prez]

Uh...is there a " stupid take" thread I missed?

Who else is unavailable on Sunday?

 

[Orangeslide]

Tony not throwing in the white flag.

I just don’t get leaving Benhke in against someone batting .400 vs lefties… do we wanna be in the losers bracket???

Agree. If we are situational pitching(and should be at this point) you bring in Snead vs the righty..

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I get it at the time…TV was thinking it was going to be a pitchers dual when he did it….this game is just far from that now. I would have stuck with him since it wasn’t even his fault we were in the situation…but it happens…

Yeah, there is no way TV was expecting this team to give up 11 runs in 7 innings with 5 unearned runs on 3-4 errors. I don’t fault him for doing what he did.

Strike zone is tight, Vols need to be patient at plate and get guys on.

 

[TheBigOne10]

Ensley down with a whimper

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Ensley just swinging at trash tonight

We decided to go in losers bracket after pulling our starter after 8 pitches.

 

[LLcoolDave]

welp, not a good start to this inning

 

[SGMVols]

FSU is the better club

Link Jarrett owns us

 

[Vtonerider]

Who else is unavailable on Sunday?

No one

 

[BreatheUT]

So how do we match up with UVA?

Well the good news is they only scored 2 runs today. The bad news is they only gave up 3 which means they probably didn't have to use many arms. I think normally they are considered to have a good offense.

 

[Sudden Impact]

Giddy up

Can’t give any team in post-season play extra outs. But for those extra outs this game is at worst a tie game.

 

[firestorm]

Trying to relax at Hooters after a fast work day hoping Tennessee comes back instead of just keeps competing by keeping it close after Florida State found the holes.

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Terrible AB by Ensley

 

[LivinginthePast]

Point?

Point is that it sucks.

Just hard to believe we have yet another choke job in Omaha

Is it really hard to believe though?

 

[Christian Lowe]

So how do we match up with UVA?

They have the best batting average in the entire field. 2 and q likely.

But it doesn’t really matter, as I said. Losing game 1 may as well eliminate you.

Strike out….cmon men!
