The Official FSU @ #1 Tennessee CWS Game 1 Thread (Fri. June 14) (7PM EST) (ESPN)

[KptVFL]

I gotta go back and see if they missed that call on Burke for strike 3. I got a buddy who’s an FSU fan and he’s mad lol

They did IMO.

Don't feel bad though!

Home plate ump was trash all night! We were due!

Guys, our record when I watch vs. Our record when I don't watch is terrible. Turning it off now

You're welcome

 

[volmoon]

So good!

 

[Volprofch05]

How big was that walk Peebles earned?

 

[VOLtaism]

I still don't believe what I just saw. 4 straight clutch hits are impossible.

 

[rocketskates]

Check swing was not a strike.

Yep. Even the announcers said it was 50/50 after replay and a good ump isn’t going to end a game on something like that. You let it play out and you see what happened.

To win championships you always need a certain amount of luck (that check swing was a strike). Sound familiar? 1997. Arkansas game. #destiny

I have not heard one single analyst say it was a strike. Everyone has said it was a 50/50 call.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

We have so many numb n@t fans

Guilty.

 

[vol94]

I’m so happy for the Vol fans that were in Omaha and got to witness that comeback win!

Me too! I texted one of the parents of the o players. Very happy for them. And I know it’s tough for them to visit the board and read comments about the team when things go south.
But most know Volnation loves their Vols and truly don’t mean any harm.

Tonight I get to make the rounds on SEC message boards. You never know how many of these good feelings you'll get.

I bet the idiots in the sec rant are in absolute shambles

Exactly. Live I thought it was a strike easy. Replay I said whoa whoa that was close.

 

[DC_Vol]

CMo with an absolute incredible game to make this all possible. Not bad for a second team all American.

That’s a whole lot of

 

[Purplehaze26]

I thought the Burke check was borderline, called either way. Hard for the ump to end a game on a borderline call.

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

They did IMO.

Don't feel bad though!

It was very borderline and they never ring up batters like that to end games

 

[StarRaider]

a stoerner

shhhh he's on a roll

 

[rocketskates]

How big was that walk Peebles earned?

Im glad he got the walk but I was surprised he didn’t continue to frame the bunt. It seemed to be getting into the pitchers head. I wonder if he thought of that or Tony V told him to do it and try to draw bad pitches.

 

[firestorm]

I’m very stunned I get see the amazing outcome in a Hooters because it’s the famous restaurant that has orange as a main color, white similar to the Volunteers and black.

 

[CDB]

Honestly I was ready to give up. But stayed with it. Insane! INSANE! CMO is a beast!

You are a true fan. Never give up hope

Triple. Sac fly. Walk. Stark not hitting into a double play. 6-9 flat got it done and got us back to the top.

 

[I4Vols]

The Greatest Game on Dirt is played by the players.
Kudos to that ump for allowing the players to play.

 

[LivinginthePast]

Need Florida to exit left.

 

[firestorm]

If I was with Vols fans right now I would be celebrating with them by eating McFlurrys at a McDonald’s and chocolate chip cookies.

 

[rocketskates]

I thought the Burke check was borderline, called either way. Hard for the ump to end a game on a borderline call.

And a good ump won’t let it end on one. The bigger question is why did they pitch to CMO to begin with? When a batter is that dialed in with two outs you walk him and keep him at first. They can only blame themselves.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

snatched that W right away from the Noles

It’s a heartbreaking way to lose, especially with their history in Omaha.

I wished that the crew at SEC Shorts did baseball skits also
