Well sh*t. We cant let aggy or ou go to Omaha without us.

Well sh*t. We cant let aggy or ou go to Omaha without us.

and the pigs will be there too! All of our favorite teams! Even the Irish are coming!

Well, at least Ole Miss will probably be there, to bring some class to the field...

 

[Chop]

Host So. Miss isn't going to make it easy for the Rebels.
Still 0-0 in the 4th.

"Say, I recognize some of those twats waiving yellow hankies in the stands. They're caddies and waiters at our club."

 

[HornHuskerDad]

U Conn beats Stanford 13-12 to take a 1-0 lead in the series.

I stayed up and watched - Stanford beat themselves with baserunning mistakes.

I stayed up and watched - Stanford beat themselves with baserunning mistakes.

And that (base running) is one of the few weak areas of OUR team.

From Hattiesburg, Miss

The Southern douchebags are now up 3-0 on their caddies and waiters.

Woah!

Major league play there by the caddie shortstop!

 

[Chop]

This Ole Miss pitcher, Hunter Elliott, is a force on the mound.

63 strikes
24 balls
10 strikeouts
0 runs
Through 7 innings.

The Rebels are two innings away from punching their ticket to Omaha.

 

[Chop]

The announcers said earlier that Ole Miss had an excellent bullpen. This is a dark horse team to take it all.

 

[Chop]

Woah!

the swine are in trouble. Tied 2-2 in the 8th, and they just made an error on a potential double play ball.

 

[Chop]

Ole Miss punches their ticket to Omaha. Watch out for this team.

NC/arkie back on
Tied 2 2
Bottom of 6th

 

[Chop]

Pigs were down 3-2 in the bottom of the 9th.

Pigs rallying. Now tied up 3-3. One out, men on 1st and 3rd...

 

[Chop]

pigs win

They did a hog pile on the mound

pigs punched their ticket to Omaha

So here's some of what you'll get to see in Omaha:

 

[Chop]

Ugggh!

So, it's possible, maybe even likely, that Omaha will be littered with all sorts of unsavory characters from this general region of the country in another week or two.

And now all 3 of these teams, and their delightful fan bases, are confirmed invites to Omaha...

 

[Chop]

Stanford 2
U Conn 1

in the 1st. Conn has 2 on with 2 out. High scoring game yesterday. Looks like that trend will continue.

The Stanford fans seem much more sedate than the E. Carolina mob.

Woah! U Conn just stole 3rd.

U Conn in their Yankees pin stripes.

Stanford coach out to the mound to discuss various vintages of Chardonnay with the pitcher and infield.

 

[Chop]

Woah!

U Conn's OF robs Stanford of a homerun. Great catch above the outfield wall. Saved a 3 run homer. Still Stanford tags a run in and leads 3-1.

 

[Chop]

Stanford came to play today.

8-1 Stanford. It won't be a cakewalk for Cinderella U Conn. They've got to earn it.

U Conn suffered an ejection for excessive griping to the umps. (leaving the dugout to make such excessive gripes might have also had something to do with it...)

 

[Chop]

"Omaha? Isn't that like in Kansas or something...?"

 

[Chop]

Still undecided. Series tied at 1-1


Vs


Vs

 

[HornHuskerDad]

I'm guessing that Oregon State and Stanford will fill the last two slots for Omaha.

 

[Chop]

I'm guessing that Oregon State and Stanford will fill the last two slots for Omaha.

I'm flipping a coin for both. U Conn is catching lucky breaks like they were Notre Dame or something. Auburn has a tendency to have a freakishly high scoring inning that blows the game open. You're right about who has the better players, I just don't know who will win these games, this particular day...?

 

[HornHuskerDad]

^Good thoughts, Chop. That's why they play the games on the field. My final prediction for each game - at the end of nine innings (or extra innings, if tied at the end of nine), the team that scored the higher number of runs will be declared the winner.
