    Hah, four pitches?

    Oh I agree. Law is unreal. Ohio State is pretty good too and everyone is sleeping on them. I can see OSU leaving early (Sweet 16/Elite 8-ish). Of course I can think of a way any team could be out early, there's no clear cut leader of the pack this year. They are what 15-1 in the big ten. I love how since you are from the big ten you are the team that will go out early. I think they have grown a lot and will be a very, very tough out. I'm not saying they won't go far because they're from the Big Ten. (And I'm not even saying they are or are not going to go far. I'm just saying they have deficiencies like all of the higher-seeded tourney teams that could be exploited before the Final Four).

    And now Woody will join Prior in pitching on Monday. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20070303&content_id=1824960&vkey=spt2007news&fext=.jsp

    Nice inning by Samardzija. Any word on the offspeed stuff (no Ks but only one batter even had 2 strikes on him)?

    :shock:

    Are there any velo reports on Wade? Samardzija should be the next pitcher in. :D

    Don't sleep on TAMU, guys. I really like them and think they can make a run to the Final Four.

    Overall: 4 GS, 26.2 IP, 9 ER, 21 H, 41 K/6 BB, 3 HBP, 3.04 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, .212 BAA

    So OSU has to be the favorites for the top 1-seed, right? I guess I gotta root for the Wolverines, though if OSU is the top seed, UCLA could still be in Sacramento/San Jose.

    No you don't, you want to win. :P I do, but I don't expect the win even now. I've seen this play out a few times this season already. Cut down a big deficit on the road but end up losing (think @ Oregon, @ WVU). Told you. Gotta win the tourney now to get a 1-seed. Relax you have a good coach who isn't destroying your program. All is well in Bruin land. Eh, I'm fine. Saw this game coming but am disappointed all the same and I'm afraid of the ramifcations in terms of seeding. Oh, and I can't stand it when the fans storm the court and the players act like they just won the championship when they beat us...but I guess that's respect for the program.

    Hah, Collison wasn't fouled there? BS. And how did Mbah a Moute foul Brockman there? Please.

    Collison and Shipp got their heads out of their asses!!! 14-2 run by UCLA, only down 50-46. I just want the score to be respectable.
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    No o, no d. Ahhh ok, so he used to be Rey Rdnez early in his career, but by the time he played for us he had become Rey Rnez. Exactly. Who came up with that name? UMF?
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    Eh, I predicted they'd lose this game beforehand (I also predicted they'd lose at Stanford and West Virginia). Not shocking, they had an emotional win and clinched the conference on Thursday, they're playing in a tough arena against a much-improved team that will make a run in the Pac-10 tourney. It'd be nice to win this one because I really want to see the Bruins in Sacramento and San Jose. ETA: Darren, you're 1/12 shooting. If I can suggest something, don't take a shot unless it's a wide open layup.
  18. CaliforniaRaisin
    I've heard that too the last few days-I've also heard it's almost certainly dead now though that the Pats have picked up Adalius Thomas. I do hear they may go after Randy Moss though (but that's not a huge issue for this thread I guess :D) It will be a disappointment for Charles Tillman. :D
  19. CaliforniaRaisin
    Good to see Veal looking strong in camp. He does need to learn how to repeat his delivery - especially on the offspeed stuff. I think that alone will help him improve his control.
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    Alfred Aboya hurt his knee against WSU (MRI negative!) and he'll likely miss today's game againsts Washington in Seattle. Looks like Ryan Wright (bleh) and James Keefe (woo!) will get more PT backing up Mata and Mbah a Moute.
  21. CaliforniaRaisin
    sounds like a patriot league game, at least judging by the score WSU was up on UCLA 23-22 at the half yesterday.

    UCLA beats Washington State to win the Pac-10 outright, 29th Pac-10 championship. :D Washington beat USC in Seattle, Arizona beat Cal.
