The Official Tennessee vs LSU CWS Game Thread (Tues. 6/20 7PM EST ESPN)

[patrick]

May have hit the bat???

 

[Christian Lowe]

Cooper gonna come in. If he shuts the door on us, that’s just poetic /s

 

[Orange931]

Biding all this time for LSU

 

[FranklinVFL]

They’re done, I guess the best word is complacent. They were complacent with getting just 1 win. Now they’re gonna have 2 auto outs coming up in critical innings, and lord knows Vitello won’t bring anyone off the bench cause of his precious right lefty matchup. He’s a grey recruiter and he’s built this program up but his in game management is average at best

Well, this comment sounds like us. Been to the CWS two of the past three years and our coach sucks, fahr Vitello, etc.

You know, sometimes you need to remember where you came from and appreciate being one of the last 6 teams playing.

Yeah, we likely we get beat unless bats wake up big time, but we still need to appreciate and pay CTV. He has woken up our baseball program.

 

[Baulder]

There's a start HAVE to capitalize now

 

[patrick]

Confirmed.

 

[DD4ME]

I need all the negativity clouds to clear out for at least this inning. Please and thanks. New pitcher new chances.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Oh, boy. Riley “Grabs His Crotch” Cooper is up in the pen. Please let him be the one to blow this for them.

 

[mattdingus2002]

Its really bad.

But maybe we should just keep the focus on football, LNS is right next to the practice facility, maybe bulldozing it and adding a couple extra fields can help us beat uga

 

[patrick]

I would bunt.

 

[Orange931]

Well no sh*t HBP

 

[Switch 625]

Even getting a batter on after a HBP is a struggle

The progression of Volnation:

2.5 months ago, it was “this team won’t make Hoover, much less NCAA”

2 months ago it was “not looking good”

1.5 months ago it was “won’t win anything if we do get in”

3.5 weeks ago it was “what a horrible performance in Hoover! We’re cooked!!”

2.5 weeks ago it was “Clemson has won 17 straight. No chance!”

A week ago, “no way we win an elimination game against all American Tanner Hall!”

A day ago, “Tony V can’t win in Omaha”

Today, “Boys collapsed”

I’ll be back after the drive bys fade in a few days to talk with the regulars about just how remarkable this season truly was.

Great season! We're still in this and it happens to be the CSW!

 

[clarencepeabody]

Why does everybody on LSU’s team look like a second-rate country music singer?

 

[RockyTop140]

Is this the first time we’ve had the lead off guy on?

 

[vavolfan6]

Wave a cheeseburger with this new pitcher to throw him off

 

[fryeguy93]

flop sweat into the game

 

[mr.checkerboards]

NO

 

[Orange.]

If that’s the case we’re in for a pretty historic final 2 innings.

I would be ok with that

 

[chuckiepoo]

Pork chop in the pen…

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Kung Fu Panda II now enters the game

 

[wmcovol]

I’d hit for Scott. He’s gone blind

 

[IH8TheHaslams]

We're gonna smoke this big bitch

 

[barney]

alright lets light this guy up!

Season changed when Vols beat Candy in that Friday night extra innings game.
