Yeah, and UT, Tech, Baylor, et al, never get discussed on Texags 🙄

MSU only down by two fgs 

[CDAK 216]

To be fair, two SEC teams are playing.  

[msudawg 371]

Wellllll ... unless we pull another miracle off.. Lemonis gets to play his best friend in a loser leaves town game. 

Self is horrible and has been. 6-0 now after the 3 run bomb..after the mental error by tanner allen not going home and get the lead runner to keep it at 2-0.

I was just using it as an example of why large conferences suck. Way to miss the point.

Hey I can use the Big 10 for demonstrations if that somehow makes us better people in your eyes.

Yours wasn't the only post I was referring to, calm down.

There's a ton of 'em on this thread.

Vandy pulling ahead here in top 5.....they've put up 5 so far and still batting.

[CDAK 216]

Assuming Vandy hangs on, they've got to be the heavy favorite.  Mich may have substantially similar (perhaps even slightly better) starting pitching, but Vandy has a large offensive advantage compared to Michigan.

[Cairn Horn88 8277]

Bot 5:  6-0  Vandy

[Augustus 3061]

State has pulled off a bunch of comebacks this year but this is a tall order.

Agree. we don't have the pitching to come out of the losers bracket to advance. Neither does Louisville.

Very... HAVE to get rocker out ASAP somehow... which is gonna be hard to do. He's got that slider going in the stikezone and we are just guessing. 

[msudawg 371]

Well back to back base hits.. it's not a run but it's something positive to start the btm 5th. 

[msudawg 371]

fuuuudggggeee. diving catch by 2b... saves a run for vandy

[Cairn Horn88 8277]

Great defensive play by 2nd baseman to save at least one run.  MS leaves 2 on.

Top 6:   6-0

Seems like every year lately there are a number of rain and lightning delays at the CWS. I don’t remember all that many from years ago. Is it global warming or me just not remembering because I’m senile.

You're senile.

[Dr Fear 1268]

How long was the Vandy rain delay?

[msudawg 371]

We scored!!!! 6-1 

[Cairn Horn88 8277]

Top 7:   6-1

[msudawg 371]

Rocker is out.. see if my guys can get something going against the BP.

And what is that point, exactly?

[Cairn Horn88 8277]

B 7:  6-1

solo HR, now 6-2.

back to back doubles makes it 6-3

walk puts runners at the corners, 2 out...pitching change

If a Vandy vs Michigan Final... in Gm 1 if it's close late in the game Michigan probably wins Gm 1.

Blue's been clutch and their speed is a weapon...

[CDAK 216]

This game ain't over yet.  MSU is having success against Vandy's pen.

[torre 1286]

These 'Dawgs got fight !

[msudawg 371]

Lordy lordy... being an msu fan takes many years off my life every year... 

6-3 on back to back doubles... 

[Cairn Horn88 8277]

Top 8:  6-3

[Augustus 3061]

Well State's got 'em right where they want 'em. 

Down 3 in bottom of 9th.

[Augustus 3061]

Or is it 8th?

[Augustus 3061]

Strong take there, bud

[Homesickhorn 2206]

I’m watching it on my phone. Please tell me the fans are chanting MSU and NOT the conference initials.

[Augustus 3061]

So it'll be down (at least) 3 in the bottom of 9th after all.

If they are chanting sec it ain't us.. we aint got crap to chant about. 

gotta keep it to 3.. and see what we can do in the btm of the 9th. 

[Homesickhorn 2206]

That’s a cute white cowboy boot on an already disgusting Vandy uni there Clarke.

[Augustus 3061]

C'mon dawgs break their hearts.

[Augustus 3061]

Looked a little low, blue

[Cairn Horn88 8277]

B 9, still 6-3..

MS gonna need miracle again!

FINAL 6-3 Vandy

Dammit

[msudawg 371]

Well that's that. we play again tomorrow.. with the Freshmen pitcher of the year going in JT Ginn. 

If we beat Louisville though, not sure who we would pitch against vandy on friday in game 1. (40% chance of rain) rain could get us back to ethan small. 

Tomorrow is my birthday. We are going to win.

Last batter for State knew that second take was the one.

Was just coming to ask that, thank you.

O/U on how many times Ben McDonald mentions LSU throughout the broadcast?

[BluTechsan 393]

0-0 after 1 but I'm not thrilled with that 20 plus pitch count to come out the gate with

[ButtFumble 5180]

nice lead off double by Josh "bat whisperer" Jung

no outs runner on second

now one out runner on second
