The Official Tennessee vs Clemson Regional Game Thread (Sat. 6/3 6PM EST ESPN2)

It’s my softer side…..

Not unclever

 

[OldTimer]

talylorvol, you’re going to be busy all night my friend ….

I imagine, at the end of the day it will be a 2-1 series with the Vols moving on. All 16 teams left are good…..

I think we beat Hall on Friday And break their spirit. 2-0 Vols.

I’d take it, free drinks for all of we go 2-0. At home it’s a very good possibility, on the road, maybe 2-1

 

[taylorvol]

When is my walk of atonement?

Shame. Shame. Shame.

Umm, you sure? Some of us drink a lot.

I quit drinking years ago, lots of money saved up…..I’m happy to buy

Lol. I finally stopped at page 34. This would likely take all night. Lots of quitters and soft posters giving up. Just the opposite of the BaseVols. I should note that there were several supportive posts that were liked and appreciated. GBO!

I never thought I’d say this two weeks ago, but I think Southern Miss needs to host more than we do. Tennessee is just THAT good at home. We do not lose series in Knoxville.

Enjoyed the banter with you bastages. Good night. God bless.

Didn’t Hall throw like 400 pitches this weekend? Seriously 200.

He threw today I believe

 

[Volprofch05]

Please pinch hit dreiling for Zane next inning, then move Scott to center and put him in right, stick kendro at 3rd until his next AB and then pinch tears

I remember you saying a while back that you knew a couple of players who told you that most of the team had packed it in and given up on the season. What happened, did they change their mind and decide to unpack it? Because what I saw in that grueling win over #4 Clemson was not quit.

If these prices continue to rise, I might also jump on the abstinence trail.

I'm glad OldTimer's post is quoted to provide context here...

Orsl Roberts is really good for a lower level conference they will give Oregon a fit

Yeah, I took Oregon in the Pick 'em because I'm going for style points with another upset. But I am somewhat nervous. Do you happen to know if Jace Stoffal (best P) will be available for the Ducks? He's been out, I read.

An hour ago stated still unavailable to start or go deep into a game sounds like situational duty,due to his finger

 

[tn4elvis]

We have a pretty powerful lineup ourselves.

We have hit 45 or fifty more home runs than they have this season. So I am not really worried about the power numbers they put up.

What up Vol nation? Peaceful Eagles fan here just to chat baseball. Quick run down of thoughts and glad to help with info for Hattiesburg.

1. We are a baseball town and have an incredible fan base. Pete Taylor Park is a great college baseball experience. For anyone going you will be treated phenomenally. The right field roost is a great spot. It’s been going for 30 plus years. We allow 30-40 cars to drive in and tailgate in the stadium…. They grill, drink, etc. Go chat with with those long time fans and you will be treated well. Also if in town and out to dinner or bars and wearing Vol gear you will be treated well. Probably get a free beer or meal…. We are very appreciative of fans making the trip.

2. Our fans will be obnoxious and talk a lot of **** to the players…. Which May back fire because that seems to motivate TN baseball. As mentioned above your fans will be treated well though.

3. As a USM fan I hate this draw. This feels like Ole Miss again last year.. I said last year I would rather the team go to Miami than host Ole Miss…. This weekend I said I think going to Clemson would be easier the TN at home or in Knoxville. Hope I’m wrong, but we shall see.

4. Tanner Hall our ace is as good as anyone in the country. Big league change up and pitches.. doesn’t over power, but just an amazing pitcher. Storm out the bullpen is a shut down guy. After that we have solid pitching, but none are just dominating guys.

I think TN fans making the trip will come away impressed and amazed at what “little” Southern Miss has going in baseball atmosphere.

Safe travels to anyone making the trip and all that good stuff

Thanks @Baseburg2000 for the solid info and welcome to Volnation! You’ve made me feel a lot better about how hospitable SM fans will be. Most folks think I’ve lost my mind for making the trek to Hattiesburg considering the long trip and ridiculously high prices for SRO tickets. Based on what I’ve sent and heard, SM has a tremendous love for baseball and the environment will be loud and electric. Looking forward to my first trip to Hattiesburg/Baseburg and to The Pete.

Where do you recommend to eat before/after the game? Any tips for best SRO location to view the game?

PS I will trade you 4 seats for any Vols weekend series game next season for one chairback seat to Sat’s game. .
