Q: What's the difference between Ashley Judd and Kentucky?







A: Ashley doesn't choke on the big ones.

I’d be very surprised if Kentucky won it, I don’t believe they have the pitching depth to win 4+ games in Hoover.

They don’t have the pitching depth. They can win maybe 2 games but by the time the 3rd game rolls around they will be out of pitching. Starting with their 5th SEC series against Auburn they have given up 8.67 runs/game in Game 3 of their series. Not coincidentally, they are 3-3 in those games and you can probably guess which ones they won.

8 vs Auburn
13 vs Tennessee
10 vs South Carolina
4 vs Arkansas
5 vs Florida
12 vs Vanderbilt

So, it's South Carolina's fault that Kentucky lost to Vandy, while Tennessee swept South Carolina? That must be Kentucky logic.

They are right up there with Bama on the dumb meter.

The two best forms of entertainment in the world are Kentucky and Bama boards after any loss.

You can't leave out the Vent. It's hysterical.

 

[tn4elvis]

Just like a Wildcat, barley make the podium and claim a championship....

Sounds like a lot of Bama’s three loss championships they love to claim also.

In before the NEGAs arrive and complain that we're not pitching our starters 7 innings.

We should be up by 7 by now

I don't understand why Tennessee doesn't pitch staters 7+ innings @Volstylexx

How many times has Tennessee been the number one seed in the SEC Tournament?

There will be plenty of noobs drifting in to ask questions. Many will not have read through the thread prior to asking a question. Please be patient and helpful….

Really? Cmon

This forum is equally entertaining after a strikeout, error, or walk, a loss is like some folks jumping off a cliff……

Don’t forget base running.

Don’t forget base running.

So true

So true

Last year it was we can’t hold runners.

@OldTimer how did VU move up +6 in D1’s RPI? Only +1 at WN?

I always assumed D1 pulled their RPI data straight from Warren Nolan. That I’m not sure unless it’s a typo

Look at those VOLS.

To be honest the poster is correct. South Carolina is a worthless ACC school. Really outside of women’s basketball more of a mediocre/top tier SoCon/Sunbelt school.

They have won to championships in baseball… how many we won?

Not sure what that makes Kentucky… Kentucky and South Carolina are basically the same, just spelled different. South Carolina used to be elite at baseball, Kentucky used to be elite at basketball. That’s pretty much all they’ve got.

We depart for Hoover Monday morning & will be there all week, every game. It's become a tradition for us. Our seats in Section EE Row 3, behind 3rd base dugout.

8 tracks… a couple I had were Jim Croce and Brownsville Station.
I also remember betting Beta vs VHS. Eventually bought a converter.

My aunt had a powder blue Pinto, with an 8 track.
I was a little guy and she was maybe 18-19, but would let me hang out with her and I thought it was the best thing ever!
Sorry to get off topic, I just had a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
Carry on...

I’ve always hated how they do the format for the first 2 rounds. After the first round the top seed should get the lowest remaining seed and so forth. So you have Texas A&M as the 4 seed but if Ole Miss wins they get rewarded with having to play the 12 while the top seed in the tournament is stuck playing 8 or 9. Same thing with Kentucky and Arkansas, if LSU and South Carolina win they would get lower seeds also. Never made any sense to me. The lower seeds are suppose to have the most difficult path to a championship and the way that it is set up is not that.

I would agree with you if this were any other run of the mill conference, but being the toughest and deepest conference in all of sports, there’s usually not a lot of separation between 4 or 5-8 or 9, IMO.
