Boom! Big win. Sec tourney is now basically a lock. And the NCAA tourney spot feels a little better. Still not convinced we're a lock just yet but its looking more likely than it did 36 hours ago. Would love to see things get at just the right time. Although I know we were saying that after ole miss.

was that before last nights game or after?

Our hitting has always been up and down. But this year definitely feels different. I don't know if it is Baxter or if there is something going on behind the scenes we arent privy to. Or if perhaps this class of recruits ultimately isn't as good as prior classes. Sometime the recruiting rankings dont...

what are those decisions?

Who thought we were still on pace to host a regional? I suppose if we went like 7-1 the next two weeks and then won the SEC tourney, then yea I suppose we could sneak our way back into hosting.

Won't matter. I think it is safe to say we are squarely OUT of the NCAAs. I don't agree with that. If we were to somehow go 6-2 over the next two weeks, I think we'd almost be a lock to get in. 7 games over 500, a solid RPI, and a bunch of good wins... I think we'd be nearly a lock. But if we go 2-...

We'd probably have to get swept the next two weekends to miss out on the SEC tourney. Only two teams dont make it and Alabama has essentially locked up one of those spots. So really it's a battle for the next worst team. Currently Mizzou is in that spot at 9-15. And then there are a whole bunch of t...

I've been thinking about that as well. This is the year that would have impacted us the most by the loss of Everett. He would be at his peak and headed for a first round draft pick, if not top 10. And as you said, everyone else in the staff would be starting one day later against an easier opponent ...

Good grief. Glad I left

Joe is so far ahead of the tv but I have also done it. bases loaded one out and Raby gets the guy to pop out to foul territory.. whew... still need one more out to keep it a 3-2 game. Anyways think you're gonna have to hold down the fort... I'm off to a cinco de mayo party. Although I'm sure I'll c...

Joe brought up the fact we are the only SEC team with more strikeouts than hits. So far today through 6 outs, we have 5 strikeouts.

Raby getting tattooed. 3 straight hitters pound the ball for hits. still no outs.

Yea I turned these clowns off and pulled up Joe on the radio.

Tigers answer in the bottom of the 2nd.... solo shot. Now 3-2 Tigers, still no outs.

Tigers score 2 in the bottom of the 1st. Go up to 2-0. Duval hits a solo shot in response.... 2-1 Tigers... still top of 2.

If we lose this game, we need to start being concerned about making the ncaa tourney.

All the projections have more than 8 SEC teams in. Most are saying that the SEC will likely set a single-season bids record (the current record is 10, from the SEC in 2014 and the ACC in 2016). The way this is setting up, the SEC looks good for 10-12 bids. We will be fine unless we have an absolute...

Two straight weekend series losses. And we've only won 6 of our last 15 conference games. Feels like the wheels are starting to come off. Too bad. Year started off with so much promise.

Why would you take the bat out of Demarcos hands 4-4 at the time and you know you at least need two runs to win with our bullpen? Because statistically you are more likely getting a run when you've got a guy at 3rd with one out. And I'd rather take my chances going to the 9th with a lead than tied.

Cant believe we didnt try to bunt over the runners. Get guys 2nd and 3rd with 1 out. I'm not watching any more of this series. Was busy friday night so I missed the beginning of the game. Got home and turned it on during the inning that we blew the lead. Watched us lose. Didnt see any of saturdays g...

Thankfully it is at home.

what happened in 9th? I had turned it off.

Only 9 strikeouts for us tonight.

Do they have any college eligibility remaining?
