Tennessee can eat a dick. So glad they got bounced. They behaved like trash all season and cheated to boot. 9 dudes with double digit homers? Ya right. Yep, that’s right, they were caught rolling their bats and nothing happened.

 

That said, they were really freaking good. With them gone there won’t be a favorite in Omaha this year.

I don't follow college baseball closely to earn ND fan bona fides but that was a really fun series. Better enjoy it while it's there because FSU fired their coach and ND's coach played at FSU and lives in Tallahassee.

Yes, Link Jarrett's bags are already packed. He has done a phenomenal job at ND.

 

I'm cautiously optimistic about the chances of my Rebs. They are peaking at the right time. In their 5 postseason games so far against Arizona, Miami, and USM, they've outscored them 46-11. That'll play. Their pitching staff gave up 0 runs and only 7 hits in the Super.

no idea what bat rolling was until a few moments ago. that's wild!

Yeah watch their coach when he knew they were busted trying to get the bat back so he could run off with it. Although I guess the theatrics were unwarranted since the league office didn't do anything and no one cared enough to write the story.

 

 

Tennessee hit 158 HR this year. For comparison, let's look at the season HR totals of the other SEC teams that are currently still alive:

 

Arkansas - 99

Auburn - 72

Ole Miss - 99

TAMU - 80

Texas A&M vs Texas on Sunday in an elimination game. Should have seen that coming a mile away.

O/U 3 fan brawls in the Omaha stands?

It’s only baseball so I wouldn’t expect anything like that. Now in 2025 when Texas returns to Kyle Field all bets are off. For that one I may be in the Texas family section too. My best friend’s kid is dying to play there and I think he’s got a real shot. That would be so weird for me.

Might be sooner than 2025. I’m hearing it could be as early as 2023 that OU and UT join the SEC. They’re trying to legally wiggle out of their BigXII contract and some speculate that could be accomplished this year.

Could be. But from what I’m told Texas @ Texas A&M is already official for 2025. Even if they join before then there may not be a game before ‘25 although I assume we will play them every year. If we have to play them I’d rather it be a soon as possible. Our program is way ahead of theirs right now.

You just HATE to see it. I’d say UT is maybe the 4th best program in Texas right now.

Breaks my heart. Lol.

 

I honestly don’t think Sark is going to succeed there. I guess we will see. They’re in for a rude awakening when they face an SEC schedule. Manziel saved us for the first couple years but once he was gone we found out just how tough it really is compared to the Big 12.

Interesting. I would have thought between the CFP not expanding as both sides assumed it would when this move was being discussed (for UT and OU) and the new SEC TV deal not kicking in until 2024-25 (for the SEC) that both parties would be alright waiting it out for now. But you can't put a price on the awkward factor I guess.

It will more than likely be as early as 2023.

 

Cincinnati, Houston, UCF and BYU will be joining the Big 12 in time for the 2023 football season. Because these four schools are coming, there's a clause that will allow Oklahoma and Texas to leave early (can't remember if there's a fine or not, though they'll most certainly pay it).

Trending toward ND vs A&M in an elimination game Tuesday

Well, that magical ride crapped out in a hurry. Two punchless performances in a row won't get it done in Omaha.

I mean, he was safe at 2nd. Glad they upheld that.

 

I feel like either OM or ARK would beat the Sooners.
