  1. Wrong thread!
  2. Yeah, I get it. My questions were more rhetorical than anything. I've taken a lot of flack in other threads for saying "being Texas isn't enough anymore." There's zero reason we should be sucking hind tit to LSU in baseball, Alabama/Georgia/LSU in football, and Kansas in basketball. Texas should be able to manage being the top dog in at least one major sport.
  3. That may be the answer to the question, but it begs another question - how does that happen? Does LSU really have more money than Texas? Does the LSU alumni base have more money than the Texas alumni base? Does Baton Rouge have more money than Austin?
  4. Florida isn't putting up 8 more in the last 2 innings. If they even get within 4-5, Skenes is in to close the door. Texas behind LSU in titles. Disgusting.
  5. We need to answer the question of "Why would a kid choose LSU/Baton Rouge, LA over UTexas/Austin?" and figure out a solution. There's no reason we shouldn't be the Alabama of baseball and get pretty much whoever we want, but as it is, Tommy White, Dylan Crews, and Paul Skenes are wearing purple and yellow.
  6. Makes me sick LSU is about to pass Texas in CWS titles in half the trips to Omaha.
  7. You can't?
  8. Perfect world - LSU knocks out Tennessee and then gets waxed by Wake Forest.
  9. Don't see TCU beating UF twice. Congrats on the CWS finals appearance.
  10. That's bad. Laughably bad. TCU should: Intentionally walk the next ORU batter. Walk over to first base, knock the runner off the base, tag them out, and then go absolutely bananas if the umps do anything except call them out. Repeat twice more in the inning. Make a mockery out of it.
  11. If they do, then TCU should just walk up to every runner, shove them off the base and tag them out. Of course, they can't do that...which is why this should have been a 10 second review.
  12. If you can just knock a guy off the base and tag him, then you'd just...push every runner off every base and tag him. FFS. How are these announcers not getting that?
  13. Guessing Oklahoma State fan. They can't ever get past Oral Roberts. Bob is like OSU's kryptonite.
  14. Somebody swapped out the champagne for Bud Light.
  15. Despise Tennessse, but not sure LSU gets past them. They don't have the pitching Tennessee has and both teams can hit.
  16. Definitely don't want LSU getting title #7, but hard to root for Wake Forest either. Just happy watching two good teams battling it out.
  17. Won't be overturned, but looks safe unless he grazed the knee.
  18. Safe
  19. This fidgety yahoo or Stanford's fidgety nerd...who burns more calories per at bat?
  20. HP umpire needs a Snickers, stat. Chubby's blood sugar is getting low and his eyesight is going. Strike zone is all over the place.
  21. Hurd has been so-so, but when he’s on he’s tough. Beat LBJ in a helluva duel. Was sitting behind home plate for that one and both pitchers had nasty stuff.
  22. Pitcher got screwed by his coach. Clearly out of gas and they just left him out there 2 batters too long. Gonna cost them big time.
  23. Announcer talking about the Hawaii kid having to "come to the United States" for baseball opportunities.
  24. Come on, Tree. Pretty much everyone ISIS Tennessee
  25. "10 singles" isn't because they're not hitting it hard. They're just hitting it right at people. "We're not seeing the swing-and-miss changeup" isn't because his change up isn't good. It's because Tenn is sitting on it, hitting the outside stuff up the middle or opposite field, and not looking to pull fastballs (that aren't coming) for HRs like our Texas hitters did. It's the recipe for that guy and why our guys couldn't figure that out is beyond me. Yeah, I'm still salty. Hate that we're not playing this week.
