  1. Guo and Park having not played at the regionals are now playing in the NCAAs
  2. If anything about reputation...there's an actual twitter thread going on right basically calling out the current Line 4 player at UF. One poster is showing multiple clips of him hooking different opponents. Present and past NCAA players have joined in.
  3. I really have to second that ? on that thread. I may be some years removed from undergrad but never got that sense about Texas. If anything it was the old Baylor coach Matt Knoll that had an extremely bad reputation in the state. May be from judging from the outside but Berque seems a bit docile and mild mannered.
  4. Rain delay for the UF and A&M match 😈 Awesome- keep delaying this match (even if it's just a short delay)
  5. Should also mention that OU and Texas Tech's head coaches also played for Texas
  6. Yep- check on TexAgs. Feelings for him have always been on and off due to his alum status. Some are convinced that he'd jump ship if he was ever offered the UT job.
  7. Best hope that UF and A&M match will drag out as long as possible Not sure how much is left in the tank for these players
  8. What a match! Huang stepped up big (lost 0 and 1 to the same opponent earlier in the year). Next opponent is either Florida or A&M. Have won against both teams this year.
  9. Spizzirri had break points in the second game of the third set. Alas he couldn't convert and lost six games in a row. Siem just lost his break Huang held and needs one more game!
  10. Just a preview of tomorrow's match- Texas and NC State played last year with Texas winning 4-3 after losing the doubles point. NC State's doubles are really good and I won't be surprised if they won the doubles point. That said I still like most of Texas' matchups in singles. Anna and Fernanda should be playing the same opponents as last year (which they both won). Hopefully Peyton will continue her form from the last match. I also think Kylie will play better tomorrow compared to her last two matches (played against players with semi pushing styles) as her opponent's game is also that of a ball striker.
  11. NC State in the Final Four! Really good doubles team. FSU did beat NC State in the regular season. Really good to see Peyton absolutely crush her opponent today.
  12. Breaks on 1, 3, 4, and 6 already. Keep going!!!
  13. Won the dubs point. Just need 3 more singles matches. Should be interesting- Anna should be very familiar with her opponent. NC State upset Georgia

    What an interesting poll...Texas number one despite getting less first place votes than Washington. Some coaches must have punished UW for not sweeping all the races at the Pac 12s.
  15. Comeback complete! On to the Elite 8!
  16. Yeah he called out on deuce but up chair over ruled At least he had the composure to hold serve at love. Get the break!

    Rowing

    You're right https://texassports.com/news/2021/5/14/no-2-rowing-preview-big-12-championship.aspx "Originally scheduled to take place on Sunday, the regatta was moved up one day due to thunderstorms forecasted for that morning." Excited to see how this team does at NCAAs. People on RowingIllustrated are basically saying it's going to be a UT vs. UW shootout (UT has also been closing the gap on the coaches poll this past month)
  18. Won the doubles point. Ohio State would be the next opponent if Texas gets the three singles wins.
  19. NW (one of the last two teams in) beats UCLA
  20. UCLA and Northwestern going on Should be noted that UCLA's top player got into a pretty serious car accident and has not been in the lineup since
  21. Elliot and Micah are selected for NCAA singles while Elliot and Siem are in the doubles draw
  22. Peyton and Anna get single bids Lulu and Kylie get doubles bids I honestly wonder how many selections will actually want to stay and play the individual tournament
  23. Fair draw for Texas. Vandy might be able to pull off the upset against Ohio State The R32 match ups of Baylor vs. Duke and Pepperdine vs. Stanford will be interesting Iowa got hosed unfortunately
  24. Draw will be revealed tomorrow. Texas will be the second seed. Predict that Arkansas will be the second seed of the regional. Guess is based on Arkansas being around the right rank (top 30) and that the NCAA will have to split the SEC conference (11 or 12 bids) between the regionals evenly. Wonder if the NCAA will go ahead and send A&M over to Baylor. Would be unfair since that wound a nationally top 10 match up in the second round. Either way whoever gets A&M in their regional is going to be pretty unhappy. Rice and A&M Corpus Christi likely to be sent between Baylor and Texas. SMU likely to be one of the first teams out.
  25. UNC's roster is packed, extremely. They have basically three super seniors and haven't lost a dual match since 2019. Saw a tweet that summed up what they've done this past few years The good news is that Texas lost a nail bitter to them earlier this year indoors. UNC also has not made an NCAA final yet with this illustrious class. I'd rate Texas as having a 20-30% chance of beating UNC. Things that have to happen are Peyton needs to get hot during NCAAs and Joffe has to decide between Labrana and Rapolu at 6.
