Fire Pierce tonight!

No.  He needs to hear it and he needs to change, but firing him would be monstrously idiotic.

Damn. Tough loss.

But a great series and a great season overall.

Hats off to MSU, @msudawg, and other Bulldog fans. Y'all have a very good team. Good pitching and solid hitting--tough to get out and seem even tougher with two strikes. I'll be pulling for y'all versus Vandy.

🤘

Losing the 1st one is just so brutal.  Pushing them to the limit after that is nothing to hang your head about.

That 1st game man...the bats not showing up ready, a leadoff walk, and a misplayed pop fly down the line.  The margins are so slim.

I think that pinch runner for MSU hasn't been vaccinated ;) 

Shitty ending for one of the all-time great Longhorn teams.  25 years of deeply following UT baseball with season tickets and four Omaha trips...this was the best Longhorn team to not win it all that I've ever seen.  Sorry fellas for how it ended.  No reason this team needs to wait 3 years to get back though.  They should be back there in 50 weeks time.

You guys have got to be fucking kidding me. We finally have an offense again and you fuckers wanna blow it all up?

 When you go through the losers bracket you just have to use too many pitchers. Just ran out of arms. Good season. 

That’s not remotely what happened. We had plenty of arms we just chose, two days in a row, to leave someone in too long

Fuck y’all pulling for MSU. I hope the whole state of Nebraska gets hit by an asteroid, nuked and then sinks into the Earth’s core once we depart

Welp. Fuck.

Pretty good season, yet I still feel unfulfilled.

That’s being a Texas fan. Nothing but all of it matters.  But we had a hell of a week watching this team grind with the best of them. CWS is the best sporting event and it’s an amazing experience to watch Texas run.  We will be back, we will win it all, it’s what we do. We will never be the “could this year be our year team” we are still The University of Texas at Omaha.

Welp, Texas lost a game they never trailed and managed to instead of strike a guy out, put him on base and then fuck up the throw to second on the steal.  Two blunders bit them in the ass late.

You run out of arms when you're in the losers bracket you mouth breathers.  If we pull Stevens earlier, Quintanilla eventually gives up a run or has to be pulled before the 9th and then....?

Wtf were we not the home team?  I will never understand that.

Jesus Christ no one is going to explain this for the 47th time

Agreed. I’ve come around on him a lot this season but he still makes routine mistakes that the greats just didn’t. He needs to fix it but he needs to stay.

This was an offensively inadequate team. Yet we had some scrap that I haven't seen in a long time.

I don't know what to make of Pierce.  I think he should let the PC make the calls on pitching, though.  And stop coaching third.

Great season Horns.  Congrats DAWG.

What a game.

 

lot of this. UT lost to a good team. two teams going at one another, went down to the last pitch, 3 games. very good season for the horns

Oh yeah God was with you Leggett, arrogant prick I hate the God believers like he hates Cole or some shit. Get outta here with that crap. It’s arrogant as hell.

@Henry Hill nice double neg fuckhead. This team's strength all year has been arms and defense. We've gotten out of jams all season. That isn't a "big break" that's the baseball that we have played for 60 games now.

Do you really think we didn’t have more arms? Know how I know you haven’t watched this team all year?

Losing the first game in Omaha is almost guaranteed death by Bundha. We are one of the few programs that has a fighting chance of pulling it off. We made a good run at it.

this.  Pierce is OK but our hitting needs to improve big time.

Yep.  He's still learning, which is a bit disconcerting, but the dude has built this program back big time.  Some of his behaviors need to change and if they don't then I will join in on the "get rid of him" chorus.

We have lots of pretty good arms.  Would they save the day?  Who fucking knows.  

But he left two pitchers in too long, one way too long.
