The Official Texas A&M @ #1 Tennessee National Championship Game 1 Thread (Sat. June 22 7:30 EST) (ESPN)

I certainly wasn’t expecting this.

Neither was I.
It’s very similar to the Mets bulldozing my Cubs on a Summer Friday.

 

[barney]

Jeez curley has me bracing for something awful to happen every time he gets close to the ball on defense

 

[patrick]

Empty the bench. Let everyone play.

Re-group. Come back tomorrow with a new attitude.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

I didn't expect this.

Unfortunately, the first inning seems to be an omen for what was going to happen tonight.

A lot of you weren’t around watching every game this year like a lot of us were. A lot of you don’t understand that sometimes this happens in baseball. A lot of you don’t understand **** frankly.

Ok....doesn't mean it doesn't suck

Also this is the Championship series, the stakes are just a tad higher.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Do not use any other arms tonight.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

It’s game 1. We’ve only lost 1 series this entire year, if we lose today this isnt over

 

[patrick]

If the whole ball doesn't cross the plate this ump want give us a strike call. Pathetic

Well he left that pitch out over the plate. I’m sure he did not mean to throw it right down the middle.

Lol I like this post

What do you tell the guys in the locker room after a performance like this? Tony V, this is why you’re paid the big bucks.. tough one tonight. Tip hat to A&M.

 

[87&91ALUM]

9-2 TAMU,,,,Doesn’t look like we are gonna win this one.

 

[NO SIR EEE]

Dude. Stop attacking our fans. They obviously care or they wouldn’t be here. It doesn’t make you look like a better fan…

most of these new names in here haven’t been here all season watching every game. It’s cool that they support UT, but showing up all of a sudden because we’re playing for a national title and openly *****ing on tonight’s game is bs.

Jesus why I am watching this kids parents so much

Exactly.

I certainly wasn’t expecting this.

I wasn't nearly as confident as some of the posters on here but I didn't see this coming either. I thought we would win big or lose a low scoring pitchers duel.

 

[mattdingus2002]

Someone get Matthew Dallas on a plane, he’s pitching the 9th

 

[casetopia]

ok they blow us out. we blow them out. game 3 is a coin flip.

 

[theroyz71]

Cal thought that was the 3rd out.

 

[LivinginthePast]

Ugh well maybe it goes to Monday

 

[firestorm]

Jesus why I am watching this kids parents so much

Less depressing than the frustrating result we’ve seen on the baseball field tonight, and because most likely commentators are bored by this game that went from looking dramatic to undramatic.

 

[djwes]

Everything going well for A&M they’re saving their best arms and will likely beat Tennessee in game two

 

[Bigvalley84]

Not having a legit Friday night starter has hurt in this one , losing Russell hurt us big time

 

[volsagain]

I certainly wasn’t expecting this.

These guys are really good or they wouldn't be here. I expected a tough series but didn't expect us to make this many mistakes.

 

[Delmar]

You cannot throw that pitch at 2 and 2.

Threw it right down broadway.

Made at least four mistakes on 2 strike pitches tonight that weren’t full counts that cost runs. Just some poor pitching and that’s about all you can say.

Of course you can throw in poor defense and lack of timely hitting (10 LOB so far). Just an overall poor effort so far. Not over but it feels like it.

Most of them are horrible fans...always in here chiming in when crap is going rough but no where to be found when its going good. Gtfo with that crap
