Texas Softball 2024 - Farewell to the Big 12 (and back to OKC?)

[Pato del Muerto 52494]

Their bats sound loaded. 
 

Their offensive plan is to go the other way and it’s working well.

bla.  I had feeling this game would look like this.  

Same. Was really hoping to play OSU again but then they tanked to avoid OU. What can you do. 

[kingkoopa6 8350]

Poop

[D3zii 3678]

Hope we got some runs left from this weekend 

[kingkoopa6 8350]

Poop again 

[Js1 85325]

4-1 OU through 3

[D3zii 3678]

Good pitching is still dominate in softball

[bschoolprof 6252]

Our one weakness IMO is we don't have anyone like a Maxwell or Kilfoyl.  A big game Ace that you know you can count on when it's all on the line. 

I think Kavan can get there, but she's only a freshman.  

[LonghornSean 3994]

Sloppy

[Honeysucklerose 987]

We stink tonight

[LTtxfan 49185]

First baseman has to catch that throw

[D3zii 3678]

Our defense is the only thing that keeps us from being an undefeated elite team 

[Cairn Horn88 8262]

Horns last loss was to OU on April 5, 5-2.  We are not tuned in tonight.

Let's not get run ruled....wouldn't look good.

[TrashMaster G 17554]

Yeah, it ain't happening tonight.

[LTtxfan 49185]

Playing scared defense...  Yuk

[Cairn Horn88 8262]

Just goober-punching the ball in play....nickel and diming us to death.

[D3zii 3678]

Mike has to start taking defense more serious. Citlaly hasn’t pitched bad at all

[Cairn Horn88 8262]

We don't want to be here.

[Js1 85325]

Yeah this is just blah

[D3zii 3678]

The hits look sexy but I just think great defense and pitching will win you more games then home runs 

[Gut Wagon 8065]

I'm heading out to look for the aurora. Maybe our team will wake up before I return. 

[Cairn Horn88 8262]

I still think OU is the team to beat to win it all....home field advantage is worth something...and OU don't need much.   We shall see.

[D3zii 3678]

See what happens if I don’t watch. That way I know wat to do in time for the tourney 

[LTtxfan 49185]

Come on... no runs in 5th for blOU and Horns score in bottom half to make this a competitive game!!! 🤘

Who in their minds WANT to be in Okiehoma!?

[Lou_Sassle 2875]

Lol, why does the blowU pitcher have a Texas flag on her glove? Bitch, you chose to leave the state... don't be trying to act like you're proud to be from there and trying to represent it. 

[Js1 85325]

5-1 OU through 5

half of OU's enrollment is kids from wealthy Dallas burbs.  The school itself is half texan, even if they hate us.  

[Gut Wagon 8065]

Horrible ABs by a lefty-heavy lineup against a dominant lefty pitcher is really no shock. 

[Gidnik 3269]

oklahoma players are much uglier than ours.

Did White recruit Maxwell?

[Js1 85325]

Citlaly with 9 strikeouts against OU is a bright spot

OU has ONE player from Oklahoma...from Texas, Calif, Az...and littered with few transfers.

she was a 2018 I think and likely committed to OSU long before he got here.

That's a very misleading stat...but still, good.

[Js1 85325]

Yes but we did recruit her out of the portal. 

10 strikeouts

So, Maxwell had TWO opportunities to play at Texas...and thumbed her nose up to us both times....hmmm.

[Cairn Horn88 8262]

Will this change the overall national tourney ranking....since our resume is still better than theirs.

Doubtful. They likely have decided on us being #1 well before this game based on our resume 

[perfectchaos007 6638]

OU is making plays on defense and we're not. Difference between a win and loss

[LTtxfan 49185]

Damn... nice play by CF

[The_Great_Hornsby 3236]

If we arent the #1 seed, that would be the most insanely laughable decision by a committee ever. We will have split with OU 2-2. And have taken the season series from them. We also had a much harder schedule and way more quality wins. 

[TrashMaster G 17554]

Goddamn, OU fans sure piss and moan about ball/strike calls a lot.

You would think a fanbase that has seen so much success would be more... realistic.

[Js1 85325]

Womp. Texas loses 5-1, splits the Big 12.softball titles with OU

Next up: selection show tomorrow 

[The Longest Horn 138]

Fuck OU

[HuntinHorn 975]

Well that was not ideal...

[Cairn Horn88 8262]

OSU losing all but gave them a bye to this game, but Baylor wasn't any better...

OU still sucks.

[LTtxfan 49185]

We got some work to do for the postseason

[perfectchaos007 6638]

Starting next year, the conference tournament won't be an annual set of home games for OU. Thankfully
