In Hoover Prager lasted 2.1 innings, Stamos gave us 3 good innings but gave up a dinger to Grahovac.

Feeling a deep sense of gratitude this morning to our BaseVols. The sacrifices, hard work, and commitment to Tennessee is very much appreciated. Also feeling humbled by the fact that I get to be a fan of this team.

We’re proud of those young men who have given their all for Tennessee. Go Vols!

I am grateful for everyone involved also. Some on this board don’t deserve the greatness of this team though.

I like the fact that there will be ton of fans from both teams. No one can argue they were playing a hostile crowd.

A 50/50 split of 25,000 fans can't be considered neutral. It will feel like a home game for both teams. Lots of orange and "Rocky Top" on one side; and oodles of cultish and effiminate "yells" and traditions on the other.

Also from what I've heard the massiveness of the park is such that its louder at smaller more enclosed ball parks.

He will be laying claim to Tony for sure

Also Ellander played for him. I believe he coached for him also.

I bet a few thousand diehard local season ticket holders attend as well. They def attended the finals last year LSU vs FL. Many have had their season tickets for 25+ years.

SWEET!!! Nice job AD Danny White!!!

GBO!!!

It's hard to believe we are playing for a national title. I think with our team it comes down to our pitching and defense. We know our offense will show up. If we can just pitch OK and play decent defense, we should win.

NNW 10-15 mph for Saturday night
SSW at 5-10 on Sunday
S at 10-20 on Monday night (if necessary, of course)

Saturday is the day to make hay for right handed hitters to LF if I’m thinking about that right. Wind should blow balls from center to left.

Gotta come out hot, firing on all cylinders and take game one, leaving no doubt... I think if we can make a statement game 1 and not only win, but win by at least 3 runs, it will shake TAMU's confidence and we take home the trophy in game 2, or worst, game 3...

 

[Remy]

This team can win so many different ways

Which is what it takes to win it all at Omaha. One dimensional weak sisters tend not to get to this game. It simply will come down to whose horses show up and perform the best. GBO!!!

I had the pleasure of meeting our very own Preacherman this afternoon. A wonderful gentlemen. Sleepy but excited!

 

[TheBigOne10]

I’m a little surprised they are going with Prager game 1. He’s a good one. Really glad we’ve seen and had success against an abnormal number of lefties this CWS. We’ll be ready!

Wonder if the Longhorns are pulling for Tennessee or A&M?
