Not sure who we are going to see but Max Banks 6'4" RHP, 1.5 ERA has started last friday night against Stanford. Not a ton of SO's, looks like he pitches to contact. He gave up 2 runs in 6 innings and that’s where the score stayed. Might be a decent test for our guys. Bats need to travel to Vegas.

D1Baseball streaming looks complicated (and pricey). Anyone know of a workaround to watch this weekend's games?
Where the hell is everybody? I’m late to this party, but looks like Texas had a 9-1 lead going into the 7th, and our reliever immediately gave up 6 runs, good god. In the top of the 8th, Texas leads 10-7, but Washington has the bases loaded with no outs, what are we doing here?
I feel like I’m in the Twilight Zone, just happened upon this game in the middle of the night and everyone else is dead. Duplantier is on the mound but just beaned somebody and walked in a run, so now it’s 10-8 Texas.
A ground out to short brings home another run for Washington, now 10-9 Texas.
Two Ks end the pain, still 10-9 as we enter the bottom of the 8th.
Farmer singles, but Galvan grounds into a double play, two down.
Mendoza walks and Belyeu has a chance to be a hero…
Strike 3 called with Max looking, damn
So I’m guessing Chop and aUTfan both jumped off a bridge during that tragic 7th inning? If so, who could blame them?
Mad Max Grubbs replaces Duplantier to begin the 9th and it’s a quick 3 up, 3 down, thank god. Texas somehow hangs on for a 10-9 victree. Meanwhile, the #1-ranked fightin’ Texas Aggies lost their third game in a row, so it was a good day all around…

Whelp, I'm glad I wasn't following this one last night. Early in the year, a team is going to have a twilight zone game or two and twilight zone innings or two, and it sure sounds like Texas got that last night. Unlike the blown game against Louisville earlier in the year though the Horns had enough early offense to hold on so at least there is that. It's baseball so strange innings are going to happen and strange games are going to happen. Win at least one more in Vegas and it's a successful trip. This team is more ready than I thought they would be. I have always viewed this year as a shakedown and rebuild year for Schloss to get his system and style in place and hopefully, Texas would have enough to get in the tournament and then see what happened. I still view it that way but I am perhaps a little, just a little, more optimistic. We need to stay realistic though about this team and the buzz saw it is walking into when SEC play starts.
I fell asleep listening to the audio--long day with a long drive.
Looks like I missed Howard giving up 5 runs while getting no outs. It looks like even Burns had an off night on the mound, while Max Grubbs came in to clean up the mess in the end.
Well, our bats certainly woke up.
Glad we got the "W".

Do you mean Howard?
I went to sleep. Who was the poor reliever?
Outside of the first game where Texas absolutely blew it, the team has been tough as nails.
You wrote my exact response, from falling asleep with the radio on, was a long day with a long drive for me too.
