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

[VOLinAL]

You can see the massive difference in college and MLB. Defense.

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Just keep screwing up... awesome

On offense and defense today. Just picked a great day to play one of our worst games of the season. Team just doesnt look focused in any asset.

 

[djwes]

13 should return his NIL $

 

[Caz]

I almost believe if we trotted out Greg Maddox tonight A&M would hit him.
We aren’t playing well at all, but….

 

[LLcoolDave]

hope Marcus has calm nerves and can settle in quick like

 

[Proud Army Wife]

This is certainly a choice

 

[Zues1]

Could you just field the damn ball like you were taught at 10 years old !

 

[Orange931]

Just throw strikes please

 

[Purplehaze26]

Fans bad mouthing our players. Y'all are disgusting. It's a frigging first game in a series!

 

[Butch s]

Please no Phillips. Every game I’ve seen him pitch, he’s been rocked

 

[Switch 625]

They are about to bust this wide open.

 

[Carlitovol]

We are looking like we did against Vandy in the first game of the SEC tourney. Hope we can put this one behind us like we did that one.

 

[Orangeslide]

Stark gotta be tough here.

 

[Orange.]

This will be interesting. LFG, Marcus!

 

[firestorm]

Please get the 3rd out.

 

[patrick]

The Vols look lethargic and sloppy….. what’s going on?

Wait wait wait.

I dared to say the Vols were flat and got chided.

Lol.

But I agree with you 100%.

 

[Titan05]

None of them are so far

Needed Kirby to eat some innings. Didn’t happen.

 

[VolFanGBO]

shut up Cmo we’re down 5

 

[patrick]

Bringing Phillips in pretty much tells everyone CTV is playing the long game with his pitching.

And he should.

He knows his team isn’t in it to win tonight.

 

[vols4lfe]

Phillips is the conceding game and saving arms choice. Seems early to do so, but I get it.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Kid is a quality pitcher.

I think we forget that aTm is an elite team with players heading to the pros. I can’t stand losing but at some point you must give the other team credit.

The game isn’t over but I’m a bit on edge down 7-2 top of 5th.

They would not be here if they weren't. That is why I don't understand us play like a bunch of playground kids.

 

[vol94]

Pressure... Lots of it. Support this team. Lots of guys out there that have sacrificed to give you something to be watching tonight. They know they haven't played well you can see it on their face. Still got Game 2 and hopefully 3

Agree 100%. Well said!

And I am 100000% sure volnation will support this team. The fans care and aren’t angry with the players. They are frustrated with the situation and starving for a natty in one of the three primary sports. So i don’t look at most of the comments as Nega Vols, just passionate fans.

 

[patrick]

Threw that right by the guy.

 

[NATHAN05]

The Vols look lethargic and sloppy….. what’s going on?

They're just home sick.........

 

[Rocky Top T]

They are swinging for hits, we swinging for homeruns.
