That 9th run is a bitch though

Seriously. And with all the golf swings from this weekend you’d think we woulda won with the lower score.

The soft part of our schedule couldn't have arrived at a better time. Let's go 6-0 and get our confidence back before conference play begins.

With NIL now in play, I will be dropping some serious coin to get these guys back on track.

They definitely did. 3 day passes to this are 2x as expensive as Shiner College Classic tickets. Individual game tickets are 1.5x expensive. You only get to watch one game vs three games a day. Definitely a money grab bc the land thieves are poor. 

[Hookem2147 21281]

It was either build a lemonade stand or move the series to help finance the early move to the SEC.

OU chose the latter unfortunately. 

[jimmyjazz 45952]

If it helps them afford the exit fees, I'm all for it.  I want out of this shit conference as soon as possible.

And could Rangers Marketing want to pique the fans interest due to the delayed MLB season - and the B12 obliged ?  The Yankees were scheduled to play the Rangers at Globe Life that weekend.  The BYU/OKSt series was also moved there due to weather in Provo (allegedly).     

You are right about the expense.

 

Single Day Tickets and Weekend Passes for the weekend series are on sale now at texasrangers.com/collegebaseball. Tickets are $30 for general admission for one game, or a weekend pass can be purchased for $80. Parking is available the day of the game for $25.

On the phone with OU ticket office to get a refund despite their “no refund” policy.  They just sent an email saying that I could exchange my tickets for any other OU home game or the football spring game.   Yeah… that ain’t going to work for me, bitches.

Get some Bedlam tix and scalp 'em.  Of course, they'll be 4-5 at that point, but maybe you can catch some sucker early.

[Guadaloopy 10971]

They refunded, but not until I sat on hold for 15 minutes listening to Boomer Sooner and their alma mater.

Texas drops to #2 in the D1baseball rankings.

We are currently #4 in RPI and have already played 11 Q1 or Q2 games. By comparison, top ranked Ole Miss has played 6, Texas Tech and OU have played 7, Arkansas has played 9, A&M has played 8 (all Q2 games, they haven't played a Q1 game while we've played 6 lol).

There are a few organizations that I would never donate money to, Sooner athletics being on that list.

Did you expect any less from the land thieves?

Texas also confirmed that this is a one-year deal. Oklahoma will come to Austin in 2023.

Holy shit, never realized that was him.  Not often you see him in a film with Werner Brandes.  

Also, 4 years already we lost Augie.  Damn.  RIP, Coach.

Ha, I pointed that out years ago on the thread on Movies/TV board. Pretty funny. Anyway, I caught the final 30 mins of Donnie Darko on HBO last night and never realized Seth Roger is one of the guys who attach Jake Gyllenhaal and Jena Malone at the end of the movie.

Tomorrow's game (Citadel) is on ESPN+, but no such luck tonight. Have to go with the Flo(w): https://www.flobaseball.tv/

Basically it's $7.99 to watch the game.

But, no extra charge for the inevitable Surly poster whining about the camera work, “homer” announcers, and biased officiating!

The bullpen catcher must have passed the flask …

[ClubWhatever 12144]

I mean we did have 4 walks and 12 hits, and the bullpen "only" gave up 3 runs in 8 innings.  So he's not completely off.   We just left 12 on base and struck out 12 times.  That's obviously unacceptable against this level of competition.

[ztejas 43448]

We lost the game in the first inning. But yes - there were much more than 4 runs on the table.
