Miami Regional

[Malcom]

Very good game.

Fun question....

Has aggy ever won or even FLIRTED with the Director's Cup?

Hell no! To both questions.

 

[Sangre Naranjada]

Has aggy ever won or even FLIRTED with the Director's Cup?

No. I checked, and there is absolutely, positively no wool on that cup. Therefore aggy has no interest in flirting with it.

 

[HoffHorn]

Troy, Oral Roberts and Penn… oops … wrong thread! Lol!

 

[mchammer]

Now we need Stanford to beat Aggie ***! Having said that, it will cost us Directors Cup! Truth! Stanford leads us by “5 points”…. I’m cool as long as Aggy loses!

Tough Spot!

Won’t Texas get more points after the track and field NC next week in Austin? Our women team will be 1st or 2nd. Maybe folks are assuming the points we likely win.

 

[mchammer]

Yeah, go Stanford. They can lose in the supers while we take home the title, along with the director's cup for good measure.

Alternatively it would be good win the directors cup in Palo Alto next weekend.

 

[FWHORN]

Just an absolutely incredible performance by LBJ, the starting pitching yesterday and today are why no one wanted Texas in their regional. Now Texas needs to find a rest of the pitchers win to close this out.

 

[STHAustin]

Just an amazing performance by LBJ. Without it we’d be talking about the amazing performance by Schlesinger. Gutsy game when we had to have it

 

[txhorn_et]

Announcers said game is scheduled for 6 tomorrow, looks like the rain leaves the area by midafternoon around the time the 1st game begins, so might be a slight delay from the first game but likely getting these games wrapped up tomorrow.

Gotta hit while the iron is hot! Whomever the Horns play next doesn’t need time to recover.

I know you guys don’t want A&M to win, but if they do, we likely host the super if we also win ours, that would bring A&M here

 

[mchammer]

I know you guys don’t want A&M to win, but if they do, we likely host the super if we also win ours and A&M comes here

Aggy would likely be ticked - maybe better to play overconfident Stanford at their place.

Alternatively we could have the directors cup awarded at Disch-Falk field before the game with aggy.

 

[Sangre Naranjada]

I wonder how conflicted aggy would be if somebody made it clear to them that if they win in Palo Alto, it means WE win the directors cup. It might flummox them so badly they choke the whole thing away, from their position in the winner's bracket.

 

[aUTfan]

Coach had Stehle and Ace warming up last night. I was getting worried, I sure hope Stehle gets his stuff together, would be a great time for him to bring it all together.

I love when the ags get put where they belong, the back of the class. I do like their baseball coach, just not happy he is there.

 

[aUTfan]

We get by todays game, I’m going to like are chances all the way THROUGH Omaha. Big time game today.

important to see how Witt performs when his team really needs him.

Wouldn't they host?

 

[aUTfan]

Wouldn't they host?

whoever is ranked higher would host IF they put in a bid to host. Is A&M ranked higher than us?

 

[mchammer]

Wouldn't they host?

Why? We are both #2 regional seeds. It normally goes to the bidder with the highest $$$.

 

[mchammer]

I don’t think that is true. They look at bid value, number of seats, and other factors to make a decision.

[Chop]

It may not play out this way but Florida teams always put up big offensive numbers till they face real pitching. I’m not skeered.

I can think of one BAMF pitcher in the college game who is from Florida.

 

[Chop]

Now remember, LBJ held the Nation's top hitting team (LSU) down pretty well.

And he did the same with mighty Miami's lineup.

 

[Chop]

Real good pitchers can keep them in check, and sometimes shut them down.

Consider the following 3 game series:

Against Wake, in 3 games Miami scored: 0, 1, and 1 points

Against Virginia, in 3 games Miami scored: 2, 5, and 3 points.

And against Texas, they only scored 1 point.

 

[Chop]

Now this is a relief pitcher:

All-American, Andrew Walters.

"Walters has recorded a 9.7 [to 1] strikeout-to-walk ratio, punching out 68 hitters and issuing seven free passes. The Palm Bay, Fla., native has held opponents to a .168 batting average.

The 6-foot-4, 225-pound hurler ranks among the nation’s active career leaders in ERA (1.36, first), K/9 (15.1, first) and saves (25, tied for second)."

Yeah, he's good.

I guess they're saving him for ......................................something.......?

I know LBJ was amazing last night but does anyone else wish he hadn’t been left in the game to throw 130 pitches? He seems to have a career beyond the college game and I would hate to see him have arm trouble down the road. No one game is worth that.

I don’t follow college pitch counts like some of you guys do so i might be totally off base but just putting my 2 cents out there.
