Never in doubt!

Texas wins the series and remains in first place in the conference.

Let's go home and see if we can remember how to hit.

Now do all the arm pump shit 

Seriously I have not seen that level of nonsense from a dugout. I get all the celebrations stuff teams too and some of the other antics but the organized routines and songs and shit was truly like watching a softball game or little league.

Who stepped up this weekend? Saunier, Burns and Ruger, big time!

Moffett looked good, actually surprised we didn’t see him after Saunier got the 1st out of the 9th

Kentucky is a good team that has been in every game this season besides maybe the uga series they had. Have not been swept yet.

They play good defense and throw strikes.   That will keep you in a lot of games

Their approach at bat is interesting. I thought you had to by rule make an effort to get out of the way. I listened to the games and did not watch so I might be missing something.

HBP are clearly a way to get deeper into bullpens.

Texas has never lost a series against Kentucky. Great win.

BRING ON THE VAQUEROS!!!!!!!

Moffett is a real wildcard, that does need to be played more.

yes and cause(s) for concern 

I’m not sure there’s much to be concerned about. We seem to have the best pitching staff possibly in the country top to bottom.

Our bats are boom or bust but we all knew that, especially when you take Beyleu and Arod out. This is a team that depends on the long ball to score. If anything though I think we learned that we can still scratch out wins. Flores, Gaspo, and Rylan have to deliver now though since we have the injuries.

A road series win for the team sitting at first in the SEC.  Not bad for a team whose lineup is not very good and who are the ninth best team in the conference

with fans like these...

They have some good arms and could very well end up as a 2 or 3 seed that fucks up some ACC or BiG no. 1 seed's regional.

They were for sure leaning into pitches.

I come away from this series thinking we have more serviceable arms than i thought we had. There was going to be some point where not having Belyeu in the lineup was gonna hurt us. This series was it. The biggest mistake in the series was 9th inning last night and having Duplantier being thrown out stealing. I think Farmer had a 2-1 count there with Mendoza coming up. All you want is those guys to get on some how and have Mendoza come up with runner in scoring position or have Mendoza lead off if you go to another inning. Neither of those things happened.

Whose lead in every game in conference until today and hasn’t been swept. They aren’t good but they play in a way that they are competitive against anyone. 

Grammar guy: in my first sentence there, would either “who’s” or “whose” be acceptable? I think yes

If this means that Saunier can be a part of the bullpen moving forward I’m all for that. We need more arms.

As someone else said, several of them stepped up

They got a bunch of close loses and some weekday loses. They aren't bad and have given everyone trouble.

I bet you they make it to a Super Regional at least.

Go on the road and take 2/3, no complaints. And the one loss was extra innings

Yep. And it was a fluke blown save by Volantis.

I worry we have a soft part of our line up though, that's a big problem. You need to get some production from top to bottom.

I think they're going to have to string together some Series wins just to make the tournament, imo.

They're a decent team that has only been in every game this season because of their bush league antics.

Take away all their HBPs and they pretty much suck.

Good defense and good pitching to go along with bush league bullshit. Not talented, but capable for sure.

They'll make the tournament....secsecsec.  I'd be very surprised to see them get out of a regional.

It isn't gonna be any white meat on the plate for the Auburn series.

It depends on the draw they get but they have 3 good starters, 3 good bullpen arms, and play with their hair on fire. You put pressure on teams in the postseason like they will and not a lot of teams will be able to handle that. 

They will be on the road though and that their park plays massive

Pretty sure they got left at the altar season before last and may have had a stronger case than this season, but... secsecsec.

Great series win .

Taking 2/3 on the road is a big builder for the rest of the way.

Patchwork lineup and while we still have work to do,  the bullpen stepped up and guys found a way to win against a pain in the ass scrappy team.

Nice home stand coming up, get out to the games as Schloss said post game they'll need us! Let's go!! 🤘

Put them in the B1G or the ACC and they’d likely be near the top of their league though.

Yeah, mid-season 500 teams have done a lot of damage at the end of the year.

If they come across an umpire crew who doesn't put up with their bullshit they'll quickly get bounced from a regional.

Or a plate ump like this:
