The Official Tennessee @ Mizzou Weekend Series Thread 3/17-3/19 (Fri. 4PM EST) (Sat. Postponed) (Sun. 2PM EST Doubleheader) (All games SEC NET+)

Listened (possibly watched) some of the game while road-raging thru traffic hell in Atl. Was our approach as bad as it looked? Outside of C-Mo, our line-up looked over-matched.

They haven’t hit consistently all year so it shouldn’t have been a surprise

I knew they’d play the Sunday D/H

They can protect their bullpen with a shorter game

Doubleheaders should be 9 innings each. Not a fan of the 7-inning games. This just gives the advantage to Mizzou. Our bullpen is a strength, so Mizzou doesn’t have to use that many arms now.

We could have hit better and got into the bull pen today.

They had the Missouri football spring game scheduled for tomorrow.

Cancelled that stuff.

Gonna be like mid-30's for a high. And the wind howls...


I can tell you why Kansas and Missouri girls have weathered faces...

Ha! There is usually travel restrictions, so just surprised.

Find a way to win this series and this team may finally have an identity.

 

[NorCalVol67]

Has the program been disbanded yet?

Thanks in advance for info.

Wish they were starting at noon o well long night of driving Sunday

I have said our hitters will struggle with pitchers who work fast with the new rules. I thought guy tonight was liberal giving us time between taken pitches. New rules lean towards pitcher can work as fast as he wants if you take a pitch.

 

[fryeguy93]

If things go to plan, we may not see our bullpen the rest of weekend. Sure we have a better pen, but we also have far better starters remaining

By the way,
My NCAA bracket has rocketed today from the 11th percentile all the way up to 17th

Just when you thought my bracket couldn’t get worse
that’s right 7.3 percentile
I’m am officially the lowest ranked literate, straight player on the app

 

[BP4Prez]

I’m assuming Sunday will be two 9 innings games, right?

 

[Volfan1000]

The team can relax tomorrow and follow the basketball teams as they look to keep dancing in March Madness.

Congratulations to David beating Goliath.

Hell of a victory for Fairleigh Dickinson.

Some good news!! Another top 10 win!

Guess I picked a good night to go support the local HS in the state Mock Trial competition.

Hope some of y'all had a good night despite the score and weather. Maybe with some hot chocolate and peppermint schnapps? (Haven't had that in 40+ years... Gosh that would taste good right now!)

I think it’s the environment more so. The cold is what helps make some of these series a ****** environment even more. We seem to feed off the back against the wall/villains/chip on shoulder vibe that you get at big time road locations and/or the 4500 people on top of you and pulling for you at home. Where there is no environment, hostile or friendly, we struggle.

Yep. And with the cold and wind, it's bound to affect players who aren't used to it. Mizzou lives and practices in those conditions. Not making excuses, but it does give them a distinct advantage. If we can avoid a sweep in this one and get out with no injuries or pulled muscles, I'm happy.

Ridiculous how Mizzou was able to string together those XBHs down the line yesterday. Have to get the offense going tomorrow though.

True character and long term strength comes through challenges accepted and overcome. I bleed orange. This difficult time will pass. Just be a little patient Vol fans. The weather yesterday and being home team favored Zoo . Our time will come. Having said that, like our basketball team missing free throws and committing turnovers, you gotta take care of business and play like champs and not chumps. I have faith in CTV and we do have a young/new group of players that have not found their groove yet. I do agree we need to get a couple signature wins. That would help a lot. Cheers to the Lady Vols for win last night at LSwho. Need basketball wins today so cheering for men and women. GO VOLS!

Was there a reason given for the postponement?

Your son is very good at working that speed

It is like 4 degrees there today

I’m assuming Sunday will be two 9 innings games, right?

No, the SEC rules always say two 7 inning games.

Yes, that change helps the tiggers.


In life....you got to love the hills!
