I remember when that '87 (?) team was something like 58-5 and they lost a doubleheader in their regional finals to LSU.  That was fun.  

 

Edit: Whoops, it was '89: https://12thman.com/sports/baseball/schedule/1989

Wasn't that the year we fucking choked against Wichita State in the championship game?

Nah. I'm trying to get the sweetest tears. If they don't win it, they'll rationalize the tu conspiracy as taking a loser coach.

 

Who the fuck cares. We absolutely should never want to see aggy win a title in anything.

I didn't get to watch that game, but after I found out we lost, I honestly thought we had another game to play because I was under the impression that it was still double elimination.

Imagine my surprise . . .

I'd call it more a brain fart total malfunction than a choke. NCAA let a TV network dictate the play, and it changed from a total double-elimination to a one-game finish. Gus (allegedly) didn't realize it was winner take all, and thought we could still come back if we lost for the first time in the tournament, and managed the game basically to save for the next game. He was wrong, and Wichita State got the trophy.

I don't recall anyone being aware of the one-game deal. I wasn't tremendously unhappy about the loss until the talking heads started in on the deal. You sure as hell were not the only one surprised.

ESPN such trash.  aggy w 8 appearances and Tn with 6.  Zero titles.  And they’re legendary?  OU has 12 and 2 titles and I sure af don’t consider that legendary.  Morons 

[David Dennison 18851]

Maybe they were being ironic.

[Hank_Hill 18793]

A&M had 2 CWS wins until the 2020s. Legendary.

[Victor R. Franko 90]

Goodness gracious! Going to the HEB is tough enough with all the aggy flair out there. Those toe jam bastids win the CWS I'll be going to Randalls.

Didnt know that backstory. Gus is a fucking dipshit for not knowing the stakes. 

Also, we had 3 errors in one inning and fucked up a pickle at home plate. We soiled it. 

[Victor R. Franko 90]

Tennessee going to club aggy like so many baby seals, book it.

[Bullneck 19073]

We need more slow motion video of the players yelling and dabbing or dapping or whatever and making hand gestures and signals.

Maybe. Tenn giving up 14 runs, aggy 3... wind blowing out makes Tenn dingers look good. Should be a good game.

 

[Tex Long 4383]

Here we go...

 

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Well, one way to start. 

[tx 3 putt 76873]

Aggie going to Aggie 

[OU Sucks 8797]

Yay

[David Dennison 18851]

[59 Burst 434]

Well, now we know why this pitcher didn’t last long in his last two starts

[cabowabo 4484]

Aggies win a NC and we take their coach. I’m good with that. 

[Biff Tannen 45665]

That was the first year it was based on only one gamebecause CBS insisted on it.  Texas got fucked as far as I’m concerned.

OU won one that way against Georgia Tech team that had Veratek. Three game series GT beats them.

[The Ace of Aces 5175]

First CWS I remember not watching. I refuse to watch aggy win a title. 

[texastroubadour 1210]

Fuck aggy. Go vols

[LTtxfan 49144]

Already making excuses for aggy offense... days off should have them healthy.

 

Edited June 22 by LTtxfan

[WBT 20561]

nice call on the opener dumbass

[59 Burst 434]

I say bean this fucker setting up the force.

[jimmyjazz 45891]

I cannot express how much I hate this camera angle.  

[Victor R. Franko 90]

Tennessee better unfuck themselves. 

[David Dennison 18851]

PANIC!!!!!!!

[tx 3 putt 76873]

That was a quick hook 

[texastroubadour 1210]

Why is aggy so fucking weird? Rhetorical

I think people who go around saying 'book it', have never won an actual bet.

[59 Burst 434]

Damn, chased this guy in a 1/3 of a fucking inning.

It's an odd notion that anyone would be making excuses for a team that's undefeated in post-season play.

After an error too?  What was he supposed to do about his infielder dropping the ball?

No shit. Is he their top dog?

[OU Sucks 8797]

Maybe starting your pitcher who has been getting shelled, in game 1 of the CWS was not a Mensa move.

[tx 3 putt 76873]

Why didn’t they start this guy ?

Ta bueno. Tennessee wins a NC and we take their coach. That works too. 

[chemHORN 1239]

A wind aided Homerun, a dribbler that just happened to stay inside the line, and an error.  Seems a little early to pull him.

Hold the fucking phone.  Why the fuck is he starting tonight then?  Well, not anymore.  But y'all want a coach that chose to start a guy that didn't make it out of the first inning in the first game of the fucking championship?

Stamos is Tenn #3 guy,  only started 10 games.   Sechrist (ace) pitched Wed vs Fl St.   Suppose they wanted a LHP to start instead of their #2 RHP Beam.     FML !

Not a good move,  Tony.

[Pods 7551]

aggy looking good so far, but the roller coaster must go up, for it to go down.
