Congrats on the high honor.

Thanks! I’ve never been so honored

Looking forward to this. Let's go!

 

[TN_gal]

Look forward to Monday's game! There's still a lot of fight left in our guys and they've had their backs against the wall before. Let's go!

It's gonna be HOT Monday. And not just our bats

 

[VollerNbham]

It's gonna be HOT Monday. And not just our bats

The bats need to get hot.

Seems like that would hurt them more than us. But don’t wear black.

I agree. We’ve looked more like Okie State or Oregon State than UT during the playoffs.
please wear ORANGE vs Stanford.

Please win at least one game so that we don't have a second 0-2 and out tourney......

Lefty Quinn Mathews is not a good matchup for us. Crafty lefty that mixes his pitches up. Watched him pitch against Texas and thought to myself that I hoped that we wouldn't see him if they made it to the CWS.

No matchup is ideal in Omaha. Our boys need a break out game to stay alive.

It’s either him or a lefty pitcher from Wake Forest, At this point, they are all tough. Just have to find a way to win.

It would actually be 3 in a row (2005), but who’s counting?

Post of the day

[VolunteerVandiver]

VOLS bats about to come to life while Dolly and Burns pitch back-to-back gems

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Let’s stay alive tomorrow and then go eliminate LSU on Tuesday now that Skenes is toast.

Agree. My thoughts exactly.

 

[fryeguy93]

The other game that day will be important. I hope I’m not looking ahead.

I know Tennessee can beat LSU twice but with their pitching depth it would be far more difficult to beat Wake Forest twice.

It would be in our short term best interest to see Wake win Monday and play LSU in elimination game.

But if we want to advance into second weekend, we may want LSU to win Monday and beat Wake once on Tuesday, and go up against LSU #3 and 4 Wednesday and Thursday with our 4 and 5.

LSU may be forced to use Skenes in that if necessary Thursday game

Skenes is a great pitcher, no question about it, but it seemed the umpire gave him a little bit more strike zone than Lindsey. Anyone else think so, or was it just my prejudiced view?

idk the zones were consistent just consistently horrible. Skenes needs no help and if he gets even the smallest (in which last night he got tons ) he is unbeatable.

If anyone in this tournament has the pitching staff built to win 4 games in a row, it’s our guys!
