Wow, when I looked a couple of days ago we were way down the line. But like you said, too early to look at, but still fun.

Back in the old days, I'd be taking a Playboy w/me .... I liked reading the stories.

GBO!!

So will the stats from this game only kick in after we "finish" the game in April?

I would assume so

I like it.....but I sure as heck don't understand it.

Sweeping GS at home takes you to number 1?

I think GS beating Tech actually helped us a lot. When I looked Monday we were in the 60s-80s.

Okay. Dumb question bc I am new to this site. Do they have designated hitters in collegiate ball? Guess I could Google it.

Ok, that makes sense....but it sure doesn't seem like enough to get us to number 1 in RPI.

Early observation from week 1... sure seems like there are a lot of mid-majors playing some really good baseball. Better than ever.

College baseball is DH strictly

Yes

Thanks. What's our pitcher look like?

Agree on both statements.

I can't resist. I can't describe all of them. But one has this stupidly long hair and a funny mustache that rolls up on the end. he could be your huckleberry.

To seriously answer what I think you were asking. Our pitching staff is really good. We have 2 guys that will be big contributors that are hurt right now but the rest are really good so far. Added a freshman that could have gone first round in the draft but chose to come to UT, a transfer from Georgia Southern, a transfer from Missouri and several other good freshman. Returnees have shown good stuff also. If everyone gets and stays healthy we may have the best pitching staff in the nation. Those are big IF's though.

Here’s a great resource for box scores and schedule: Warren Nolan

Dolander, the transfer from Georgia Southern, was also a freshman all american, right?

You answered my question. Don't usually go for facial hair. It's a jinx.

I have a question: Since Tennessee was only one out away from an official game yesterday, whenever they resume, will they play until the out and call it a game, or go for 3 more innings?

 

[Juanita]

Lawd...12 innings? Okay, is this thread where you guys actually talk about the game while it's playing out? Asking for a friend.

I imagine they would play 9 innings however the coaches could agree to go 7 for the 1st game then play a 9 inning game.

Thanks OT! Will be interested to see what they decide to do.
