2025 Softball Season

I have ONLY one complaint about our schedule....no trip to Houston...sigh. Everything else about it is great. I'm most excited about the road trips, especially the SEC ones.
I am really surprised we don’t play more Big 12 teams! I don’t think they want any of that action.
 
Wow lots of double headers and a few games with ranked opponents. Tech twice, Baylor, Arizona and Stanford. ULL just missed being ranked top 25. Hope everything is on espn and not this Flo sports crap! Games have not been updated with times yet!!
I'm glad Longhorns are playing Tech (twice) early. It will give us a chance to see how our batting is vs Canady. This would be a good measuring stick for the season. :hookem:
 
Steve Singleton just posted a Hook’em! Not sure if we got a commit or if it’s because the mens bb team beat the ags.
 
FYI, the start times of softball games have been updated, so you can see them now on your calendars if you've got a subscription to them like I do. Back-to-back double headers to start the home weekend series. And part of the Texas Tech second game runs into the WBB vs. LSU game.

For double header games, do they clear out the stadium after game1?
 
The opening weekend is going to be a logistical nightmare for the team!!

Feb 7 - Double header, game 1 3:30 - 5:30, game 2 6:00 - 8:00. Get on a bus to Beaumont 2 hour drive. Maybe arrive by 11pm.

Feb 8 - 2 games 12:00 - 2:00, 6:00 - 8 pm. Get on bus to Huntsville 2:30 hour drive. Maybe arrive between 11 and midnight.

Feb 9 - Double header, game 1 11:30 - 1:30, game 2 2:00 - 4:00. Return to Austin 3 hour drive. Maybe arrive by 8 or 9pm.

These times are based on presumption every game is played within 2 hours and nothing causes any delays which never happens.
Wow I’m tired just thinking about that schedule.
 
Where is first game? Cause their. It getting to Beaumont from Austin in 2hours I don’t think. Beaumont to Huntsville might be a bit shorter though. Rough trip all around.

First game is in Lafayette La. I got the travel times off my gps and they are conservative.
 
Does Texas really deserve to be ranked higher than gooner? I know they lost some good players, but they got some really good players from the portal and had a great recruiting class.

Same as last year. Looks too good to be true and we're always looking over our shoulder to see how Patti is going to use not being #1 to motivate her squad. Always waiting for Pitcher 1 and Pitcher 1a to graduate....and then she reloads with some freshman phenom(s).

Good thing our girls are young and full of energy.
 
Had no idea Longhorn great baseball player Tres Barrera is married to Longhorn great Softball player Lindsay Stephens and they have 2 children. A couple of future Longhorns!
 
There is a tik-tok meme going around where former players diss on their ex-coaches to a song. My daughter has been sending me screenshots of some of the hotter takes. I had one for volleyball, but it's too harsh to put up in Volleytalk. But this one is for Craig Snider and his 2 year stint at Tech.
