The Official Tennessee vs Texas A&M Round 1 SEC Tourney Game Thread (Tues. 1:45PM EST SEC NETWORK)

[JCP201]

Yeah, last years team could hit anywhere just bad luck caught them at the worst time.
I feel like this year's team needs LNS.

Sadly, we lose to this team, we aren't going to see Knoxville.

Miserable game.

I hope they don't call it. Give us those three outs.

May as well.

 

[Weezer]

Don't foresee us making it very far. It'll be interesting to see who becomes available in the portal and how TV goes about retooling this team. This just hasn't been our season. Doesn't mean we can't bounce back and be better next season.

Oh, I know. I just transitioned from fescue to zoysia so I’m wanting Mother Nature to do her thing for me. What’s left of my fescue is showing a little stress after just three days without rain, which is fine. Got tired of trying to keep fescue alive in the summer.

Knoxville open is this weekend so I’m hoping for no rain on Friday Saturday Sunday

Every well hit ball has been right at em. No walks. Not our day - so far. A&M pitcher having a career day. Maybe the rain delay will hold the magic.

Depends on the matchup. We hit well enough at LSU Arky and USC to win. If we don’t pull this one off get your mind right and go win. We put MSU out and run ruled them two years ago and ole miss lost the forts round last year and won it all.

Last year was an anomaly more than the rule.

 

[JCP201]

I don't care about any of these teams if VOLS lose. Will see you guys Friday when Lady VOLS plays super regional.

no walks because we didnt make the pitcher work, we had an absolutely pathetic day AB

Need a favorable draw. Hopefully somewhere warm where the ball will fly.
I've seen us projected in Miami where I wouldn't hate that, but I've also seen Indiana, which I think would be terrible for this team

While I agree it still can happen. I’ll still watch us play until we ain’t. Then it’s pool time. Except for golf summer is time to take off from sports. Not an MLB guy

Lefties aren't picking up the slider at all. I have no idea why we haven't seen Tears today

I'll still watch, I just don't have high hopes.
Good news is the softball team should make Omaha.

As long as I get the weekend

Barring a comeback, our pitching will be set for Regionals and maybe the guys who have been struggling at the plate (Ahuna, BB & CMo) can “get right”. Meanwhile, we won’t have to juggle our lives to watch these games the rest of the week….ugh.

Definitely don't seem to play well in terrible weather. Team started playing well as weather got warmer.

 

[fryeguy93]

The team has struggled in nearly every game with questionable weather.
They let bad ball/strike calls get in their head.

CTV needs to bring in some stoic philosophy professor come in and conduct a seminar.

 

[Weezer]

Who works with the guys on hitting? Elander? TV?

Man I just don’t get into softball. Guess I’m just a sexist but the game isn’t for me. Wish them
Luck though

I’d say @NorCalVol67 would be down.

Hope they don’t go to Omaha…the WCWS is in Oklahoma City!

Yeah, that is one good way to look at it. I was going to have to miss a portion for sure tomorrow.

We need a proven catcher, upgrades across the infield and right-handed bats.

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Can't have Burke in the clean-up spot in the regionals.

The way he has swung the bat the last month, idk why we haven’t benched him for a couple games to give someone else a chance. The swings at inside and low breaking balls have been little league level at best.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Hope they don’t go to Omaha…the WCWS is in Oklahoma City!

My bad. I forget there not in the same spot
