OU @ Texas Series Thread

Bye

[Horn80 6,131]

Seems like PAC12 transfers to Texas work out well.

[ztejas 43,532]

Fuck we needed that one to fly. 

[Horny Bull 2,766]

8-6 OU after 7.

[Had Enough 2,088]

Just thought some might find it interesting that #4 Vandy lost 17-1 in 7 today. #7 ECU lost 7-0. Arkansas has lost two straight. All those losses to unranked foes.

DDA looking surly today

I understand that posters here typically lose perspective when it comes to the rest of the country but we're down 1-0 in the series and put ourselves in an 8 run hole today. I'd like to see us finish this comeback before worrying about what Vandy did today.

Not that it matters, but Arkansas was actually swept. Blew a 4 run lead in the 9th today.

Man this thread is sad. A lot more posts talking shit when Texas was sucking earlier. Now we're on the verge of stealing one and you could hear a needle drop. 

[ClubWhatever 12,157]

That was such terrible fucking baseball. Didn’t even hold him on.  Easy steal Lummus had clearly lost it.  No change  Just hang him out to dry.

Yea that was ugly

[Pato del Muerto 52,583]

I feel like the new rules make it unlikely for a pitcher to throw over twice in a row, so they need to use their quick delivery after a pick off attempt. 

[Bevo&Pevo 5,217]

Lummus shows a lot of guts today.  He says TEXAS FIGHT!

[Had Enough 2,088]

Then have some damn pride. And maybe act like we know some baseball.

It’s a continuous stream of shitting our pants around.

… and the throw was so weak and off line that it couldn’t be cutoff to prevent the hitter from jogging into 2B.  But, there’s no point belaboring the horrible fundamentals which are this team’s trademark.

Still 8-6? I'm at the Astros game.

No we gave them another run by being stupid.

Terrible at bat by Daly

[ClubWhatever 12,157]

Daly has to be able to hit a 88mph fastball righ down the middle.

His bat speed is less than impeccable.

[Bevo&Pevo 5,217]

2 outs mofos.  LFG!

[hobbes2702 13,061]

We really need Shaw to get back to his best

[Bevo&Pevo 5,217]

^^ true that, but today I'll take 3 outs.

They have a baseball team?

I still believe in these guys. 

Well, not Daly, but the rest of them.

Shit the bed. 

[ClubWhatever 12,157]

Thanks Pierce.  Maybe if there’s a high leverage situation in the finale, don’t go to Morehouse.

What are the NIL deals of all the many teams who've been beating OU? Not sure that's really the answer. I'm more inclined to scratch my head over "veteran leaders" like Kennedy. I have just as many hits this weekend as he does, in eight fewer ABs. 

[BillyGoatHill 4,312]

The hopes of hosting a Super Regional are pretty much disappearing this weekend?  

We were never hosting a super…

More talent isn’t the answer?

More talent never hurts, but we have several pitchers with a lot of talent. LBJ, Hurley, Morehouse, Shaw, Sthele all have talent. They just don’t pitch well consistently 

[Victor Lazlo 1,777]

Just give me someone that can throw a goddamn strike.

I'd always welcome more talent. But we've been playing badly against demonstrably bad teams after looking much better at other times. So I don't think it's all a talent gap.

I just don't see anyone rallying the troops. I'd hope to have found more evidence of it in Kennedy, but he's clearly in a funk when we need him most. Maybe he and others will blow up in the nightcap and we'll be on our merry way to a strong finish. Hope so. 

[Lat22 4,015]

WTF? These guys threw strikes in high school or they wouldn’t be playing college ball. What is Woody doing with them?  

[Horn80 6,131]

Adult running after foul ball.  Wonder if he still goes trick or treating.

You can’t start Galvan behind the plate in conference games yet we continue to do it
