The Official Tennessee vs Stanford College World Series Thread ( Mon. 6/19 2PM EST) ESPN

Dolly choking at the wrong time. I could tell he looked scared in the dugout before we started. Anderson should have recognized it.

Why did don’t you call Tony….I’m sure you got his number

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I wouldn't say.anyone lost their minds. Just people wanting a D1 SEC level catcher. I would also point Elander and bad base running seems to be common

Come on, man. Let’s not be that way. Stark has clearly won the job for a reason. He’s a great defensive catcher. Don’t throw him under the bus after a big win.

 

[Orange.]

He was here Saturday. I don’t think we have won a baseball game. He has been at in the four years I’ve been here.

He is supporting the team. Peyton has been at a lot of wins, for football, at least. Television created a fake story by only showing him in any sport when we lose. He hasn't had the chance until today to be there for a W.

Did they show him today? I didn't see it. Idk if he was there. But it wouldn't surprise me if he were there and they just didn't show it.

But that Bama football game last year they couldn't not show him!

I'm not throwing anyone under the bus. I answered the mans question.

 

[Mccage]

Within the program? So he’s openly talking about leaving and where he’s going amongst his current teammates/coaches/trainers/staff? If you say yes, does that not sound extremely far-fetched right on the surface to you? Who’s going to talk about that in the open and still show their face around their boys?

Well his been on here for two years I’m sure he knows

 

[volsagain]

This one is easy. If it’s LSU next, we face them without Skenes. If it’s Wake next, we have to beat Wake to get to LSU with Skenes.

Basically, we’re going to have to beat both LSU and Wake regardless. The question is, do you want to face LSU with or without Skenes? Pretty simple answer. Go Wake.

Honestly I don't care. We're still in it that's what matters. We just seen Skenes pitch 123 and finally got to him. He want last as long on a short rest . Wake may be overrated but there really good or they wouldn't be this far without a loss. Just beat the one that's on the field. GBO

 

[southgatevol]

Hey listen bud, I agree he's pretty good defensively. That's 1 side of the game correct ? I think most complaints about the C come from being able to hit. I was more upset with the Elander than a player. But you have a good day

You willing to be critical of young men playing an extremely difficult sport and getting testy with criticism of your random misguided opinion. LoL.

 

[tn4elvis]

I agree. If LSU wins and UT continues to win we would see Skeens again.
If LSU loses to Wake well have Beam against their pen .
Be awesome to send the corn dogs home

Nothing would make me happier

Getting testy LOL no. Not at all. He asked I answered I veen here all game long.

 

[Orange.]

Heupel has been to a lot too in Knoxville. He takes recruits to see the baseVols. He has them taken to see LNS and TBA if there is no game. He's very aware of the effect of synergy on the Vols brand across sports, as are CTV and CRB.

 

[Volprofch05]

I’m guessing some lost their minds.

Just posts demanding that we fire Elander and pull Stark’s scholly, and saying that Tony V can’t win in Omaha, i.e., the usual

 

[southgatevol]

LOL Bud.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Highly doubtful we see Skenes tomorrow IF Wake beats them tonight. They'd save him to try and beat Wake twice IMO.

They wouldn't save him, it'd be highly irresponsible to bring him back that quickly after 123 pitches.

 

[vol94]

He was here Saturday. I don’t think we have won a baseball game. He has been at in the four years I’ve been here.

Manning attended regionals and supers two yrs ago and @ Hoover last season iirc.

 

[Jax_Vol]

Next time, we told him to come dressed as Tom Brady.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

So, none of our guys pitch counts are all that bad.
Looking forward, and I know this is putting the cart before the horse, I think you do everything you can not to use Halverson tomorrow.
Beam/Sewell/Russell with Kirby if someone gets on.
Then start Seth on Wednesday.

 

[Zues1]

Let's go Deacons

 

[BigALWiLson]

So who you all got tonight ? Wake or LSU ?

 

[87&91ALUM]

Winner of LSU vs Wake Forest this evening vs Tennessee tomorrow at 6:00 pm CDT. I prefer our odds this time around. Go Vols!

 

[Switch 625]

We get the loser

 

[SN-A-C Orange]

It's literally like wanting to face randy johnson makes zero since. Skenes is unreal

That is a highly exaggerated comparison.
The only relatively fair comparison would be to compare how they both fared against common opponents ... I think the only team is Alabama ... and Wake Forest held Alabama to fewer rpg (4.5) than LSU (7.5) did. Wake's pitching appears to be better. More SO per game, Less hits per game. On paper Wake is the better team!!! I want to face and beat the better team ONCE. I say the stats are better to play LSU twice.

 

[Jax_Vol]

Peyton has been a great ambassador for the University of Tennessee. We just need to learn to win more when he is around.

Difficult in baseball because they seem to be the biggest believers in voodoo.

Speaking of which, I hope we don't start down path of wearing gray uniforms for remainder of tourney.

Vollie or Zander need to pitch in the open fly striped pants.

Probably Lyndsey Wednesday start back to the beginning. Lyndsey has been really good, just a bad start on the big stage. He has that out of the way now. But they will pitch the best that feels good enough to go.

Sad.

I want to see the orange jerseys with white pants. That’s UT.
