2019 Texas Softball - Connie's overboard, Anchors Aweigh!

[TwiceHorn 31,468]

Elish kinda falling apart here.

[Kel Varnsen 8,460]

Ump ain't really helping

[LTtxfan 49,186]

Umpire shrinking the strike zone....

DAMN

I know you're playing with 2 more games (today and tomorrow) but get some relief in there. 

[Js1 85,334]

This is on White. 

Elish isn't throwing strikes and you keep her in too long. From 2-0 to 2-3.

This inning sucks. 

[LTtxfan 49,186]

That was a meatball......

Dang

[spystud13 2,371]

Did only 1 fucking run score on that ball off the wall?!

Yes.

[spystud13 2,371]

Now this inning really sucks. 

[TwiceHorn 31,468]

Elish was squeezed some, but she wasn't locating well.

[Kel Varnsen 8,460]

Momentum is a helluva thing. Needed to break that up with a pitching change earlier.

[Js1 85,334]

Goodbye top 8 seed.  We were 6 outs away.  It'll take a miracle now. 

[spystud13 2,371]

Hey, nice of them to gift us an out finally. 

[Kel Varnsen 8,460]

That escalated quickly

Thought a Top 8 was a given if Horns beat Iowa State??

That was a goddamn pathetic top 7. 

[Js1 85,334]

Pathetic. Losers

This ain’t the year for us to go to a CWS

[bschoolprof 6,253]

What happened? Don’t have access to tv right now.

[spystud13 2,371]

We got rolled up in bot 6, didn’t even attempt to battle in top 7.

Bottom 6 - Elish stopped throwing strikes and Mike just sat on his ass and did nothing; 6 runs score

Top 7 - we roll over like gutless pussies

1) well, seems like just like in the regular season, we are the 3rd best team in the Big 12 right now.  We aren't that far from #2.  We are oceans away from #1 (OU), but so are most programs.  

2) I'm worried we have may have worn Miranda out.

Agree on Miranda.     She has yet to play this many innings at the collegiate level (both pitching and hitting).    Her hitting has also regressed.

As js stated,  don't see why MW did not relieve her earlier.    Bollinger would have been a nice change of pace. 

  Listen to MW and Hathaway's comments below.      At the risk of sounding aggy like,    I perceive the comments to indicate they are considering this practice for the Regionals.    But surely not with a Top 8 seed on the line.

That's fine if you're OU and basically locked into the #1 or #2 overall seed.

Texas is fighting with 2 or 3 other teams for a top 8 seed.  You treat it like it matters - we aren't OU or UCLA, IT MATTERS. 

[spystud13 2,371]

Scoreless in bot 3 now. 

[Js1 85,334]

Nope.

2-0 ISU on a yack. 

[perfectchaos007 6,639]

Maybe we’re not the 3rd best in the big 12

[Js1 85,334]

At least we won't have the embarrassment of losing a home super.

We will still host (top 16) and go on the road and be expected to lose. 

[LTtxfan 49,186]

After 5 1/2 innings... Iowa State leads 2-0

Gonna be playing KU for 5th. Wow Mike. Everything going to shit for the diamond sports. 

[LTtxfan 49,186]

Disappointed in outcomes today.  Expect a Mike White team to not perform like Connie's teams in B12 tournament.... SHIT!!!

Hope they have enough pride to win tomorrow and decide to show up at Regional....

C'mon Horns..... 🤘

[bschoolprof 6,253]

what the fuck has happened to our hitting???

[Poolflood 845]

Just got home.  On TV?

Already over.... Lost both games... 

Elish lost 2 run lead in 6th inning to Okie Lite... 6-2

Two run dinger all Iowa State needed to win... 2-0

[TwiceHorn 31,468]

Gracious.

[Machinator 32,099]

 

[Js1 85,334]

At least that game against a sub-100 has opponent is not happening 

[Kel Varnsen 8,460]

I'm not liking our momentum going into the tourney. A game against a scrub might have been a good thing, but then again, we might have lost it...

[LTtxfan 49,186]

So any update on LadyHorns rpi??  Guessing that they lost the top 8 position.....

But maybe if they are close (say #10) and a couple regional upsets happen to the top 8, could Ladyhorns still earn right to host a  Super if Texas wins their Regional??

 

[Js1 85,334]

Probably going to be in the 9-11 range. If our top 8 pairing is upset and we win our regional, we’d host. Gotta win our regional first. 

Find out tonight. I’m guessing we are 9 or 10. UF and LSU are in at our expense. Nice job ladies for that fuckup. 1-1 on Friday would have been enough

All the Saturday games got cancelled so they got the Autobid based on regular season.

Okay I just assumed they would make up the championship game this morning

Nope they just called it off and declared OU the automatic bid. Technically since OU/KU never finished (suspended in 4th, so not long enough to count), they couldn’t continue the tournament because there was no determined “winner” of the other pool. They’d have to have finished or replayed that game first.

9 Seed (Alabama is the 8 seed)

Austin Regional:

9 Texas vs SHSU

Houston vs Texas Agricultural & Mechanical University
