Florida looking shellshocked early

Post by roanoke »

“It isn’t their day.”

Ump really screwing Florida pitcher. If I were rooting for Florida - I’d be very upset.

After 2 innings, they are lucky to only be down 3-1. Not the way you want to start an elimination game.

But 6 runs in the third turn things in a hurry.

I give Florida credit. They looked left for dead.

Good teams pull out of a death spiral. They did.

The wind is blowing out. I think it will take double digits to win this one.

Re: LSU looking shellshocked midly

Rarely have I seen a game turn on a dime like this one.

Ump continues to make life miserable for pitchers.

LSU fielding is also contributing to the meltdown.

Can LSU recover from this tomorrow????

A meltdown of epic proportions.

Now 12-3 in the 6th. And LSU is really kicking the ball all over the field.

Hard to bounce back from this…

Did anyone see Christian Little pitch? Came in the game during the 6th. Got rocked like all the other LSU pitchers:

IP H R ER BB K HR PC-ST ERA
1.2 4 4 4 2 1 1 41-24 7.79

Interesting game. UF almost lost the bubble with Waldrep who just barely survived his bad start. Can't believe UF coach brought him back in the 3rd b/c he was horrible today. UF got lucky. Credit to them though, they feasted on some crummy LSU pitching. Tomorrow's game should be interesting.

I think there should be more time between the first round of the CWS and the finals so the two-out-of three games could feature the teams' best pitchers.

Has my hearing gone dyslexic or did I hear L.S.U.'s coach describe Skenes and Crews as "better players than people" in his post game interview tonight? I guess if I were coach, or an L.S.U. fan, I would be okay with that in these times.

If he said that it is non-coach speak but sends a very clear message.
