They had to come to Austin to play #1 and are complaining that we didn’t have to go to Austin to play #1?

I guess they don’t realize that most of that discrepancy can be explained by the pesky fact that we keep beating our opponents at a much higher rate than they do.  I don’t feel like doing arithmetic this fine morning to quantify it. Tennessee probably makes up the balance of any difference. But we do have something Tennessee does not- a series win vs Kentucky(oh yeah and one vs aggy- two things). And our win was in Lex, their loss was in Knox.  And then the above mentioned fact that we cannot have the 19-2 team on our schedule home or away. 
 

last add- I’m sure before the season they thought it was great that all the easier teams on our schedule were on the road because they, LSU, and Georgia could beat us in Austin while the rest could beat us at their home field.  Alas, turntables.

The announcers barely mention that Kash played for Texas and was a douche towards us the whole time at Tech. There’s history. 

To go from being in line to take over at 1B after Melendez to  bolting for Tech and then aggy shows septic waste trying to reach its natural level. The pride of Sour Lake keeps showing his true colors, and they sure ain't burnt orange.

Having Kash not in the game actually improves Aggies chances to win the game...

To put numbers to what everyone is saying, remove 8-12 aggy and our conf opponents' record is 37-53.  Remove our 18-2 and theirs is 40-49.  Also keep in mind we've already played mizzou and they haven't yet.  The horror.

We had a difficult preseason projected schedule, as the team picked to finish 8th. Excuse us that aggy sucked so bad, they brought down our conference schedule strength

The baseball rulebook is pretty vague about ejections. Is talks about unsportsmanlike behavior and language. A part of the game is razzing the other team. I don't know what Gasparino said, but to get that kind of reaction out of Kash it must have been pretty bad (or pretty good). But an umpire would have to actually hear what he said. The other team can't say "He said...". The umpire 100% heard what Kash said in reaction and his physical movements. What do you want them to do? Sucks for you, but that is life.

I don't think there's anything wrong with that clip of Earley talking about the ejection.  He's obviously frustrated, and he's calling out his own player ("I've never seen someone fly out and then go talk to the other team's dugout"), and he's entirely correct.  

Maybe I'm misreading it.

I didn't see it, as I was at a family event, but I taught my kid very early on that it's almost always the guy who reacts to the offense who gets tossed.  That served him well.  

On a different note, I don't really remember much about Kash during his time here, but I sure remember him at Tech.  The guy is a textbook douchebag.  Enjoy your day off, the weather should be nice.  Even in the dugout.

can someone help an old dude out and let me know what M# and T# are? 

I'll help another old guy out.......

M = Magic Number to clinch title

T = Tragic Number to be eliminated from the conference title race

Magic # is the number Texas needs to clinch.  Texas wins or Arkansas losses.

Tragic numbers are numbers of losses required to be mathematically eliminated from SEC regular season contention.

Tragic and Magic are the same number (it's the number for each team vs the leader)
I was pretty lit up when I made the spreadsheet the other night so it's not my most lucid work.

Pierce couldn't play him much because he looked absolutely terrible at the plate.  Looked like he had never seen a slider in his life.  Other than that, there wasn't much to remember.

Feels like A&M is going to try to do something stupid today to draw us offsides. Last thing we need is multiple guys getting tossed because they throw at Gasparino and we lose our composure.

A&M has already lost the series and their only chance to get the last laugh is to hurt us in the long run with ejections/suspensions.

I love the fact that Billy has some level of sportsmanship and understanding about how serious to take the rivalry, and his subscribers hate him for it. How dare you fraternize with the enemy!  Probably drafting letters of recommendation for a court martial addressed to miss rev every time a pic like this gets out. 

Will be a line outside the front of the TexAgs offices waiting for a Looch Ass-Kicking.

There is clip here somewhere. Texas v. TTech (last year?), Gasparino thrown out at 1st, Kash's (1B) momentum took him into the baseline behind the bag, and Gasparino clocked him. 

Yesterday, Gasp, as he was running back to the dugout after a flyout, allegedly said something to Kash like "I'll do it again." Nothing wrong with that, just the normal baseball chirping.

Kash, turned towards Gasp and the Texas dugout, and responded in kind. It was the turning towards and barking at the dugout that got him ejected.

Don't worry. His minions are busily deleting all threads and posts of any criticism for him showing his mug at DFF.  Lulz.

No wonder Earley didn’t want to repeat what Gasparino said. It blows up his whole argument. I’ll do it again? That is what caused Kash to go ballistic? Would have thought Gasparino has some inside info about his sister.

Peterson said during the broadcast said that Kash did not have sit out today because he was not a position player at the time of his ejection. I would think he or somebody checked for him before he made this statement on air.

He was a pinch hitter and flew out, then the confrontations happened.

College baseball has a lot of different rules, and you need the rule book handy to know all of them.

Earley himself said Kash wouldn’t be able to play today.  To be fair, wouldn’t shock me if that scrub didn’t know the rules.

Be very aggy to hold him out and find out later he was eligible to play.

Peterson likes to hear himself talk. He’s a good color guy but way past his prime.

It would be very odd for a long-time player and broadcaster like Peterson to just pull a statement like that out of the air, without checking on it first.

All the articles written post game seem to confirm he will not play today.
