February 24, 20223 yr Alabama (5-0) @ #1 Texas (5-0) Friday (4:30pm) - Pete Hansen (LHP, 1-0, 0.00) vs Garret McMilan (RHP, 0-0, 6.00) Saturday (1:30pm) - Tristan Stevens (RHP, 1-0, 0.00) vs Antoine Jean (LHP, 0-0, 4.50) Sunday (1:00pm) - Tanner Witt (RHP, 1-0, 1.80) vs Grayson Hitt (LHP, 1-0, 0.00) Our last meeting with Alabama was in the 1983 CWS, with the NC on the line. You only have to look to the back of the bullpen in left field to know how that turned out. Alabama's last visit to Austin was almost 100 years ago, April 1922.
February 25, 20223 yr They have had all home games so far. 2 one run wins over Xavier and they had to get it done in the 9th for one of those games. The other victims were Jacksonville St. and Alabama St.
February 25, 20223 yr Goodness, gonna be a hell of a few days for baseball. I'd anticipate the strike zone to double in size.

As is the last visit especially. Where do you find this crap op?

February 25, 20223 yr Aha Airline seems like an odd choice for a Bama flight to Austin. It's a small regional that flies between Reno and various places on the west coast.
February 25, 20223 yr I remember that game. Alabama had a human hitting machine in Dave Magadan who hit over .500 in the CWS. Somehow, our pitching that year slowed him down.

Hitt tossed 4 shutout innings.

One of the best in-person sports experiences.

They went 28-26 and finished 4th in the Big East last year. So probably not very good. This made me laugh though. To open the 2021 season……in College Station….

But yeah they’re probably a .500ish team. Loving our sec heavy out of conference schedule. Give these fuckwads a small taste of what’s coming

February 25, 20223 yr 38 degrees with a 10 mph north wind, and no sunlight. Should be interesting. Hope trey learned how to keep his throwing hand warm yesterday.
February 25, 20223 yr Stream for the game? Can't get LHN via Hulu/ESPN+That's why I got rid of Hulu and use Sling Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

February 25, 20223 yr It's cold as tits but this is a pretty good turnout considering. Edited February 25, 20223 yr by ztejas
February 25, 20223 yr 3 up 3 down. Hansen pounding the zone early. Intersting no Campbell at DH and Stehly instead. Those 2 are gonna be battling it out all year

February 25, 20223 yr Checking out Alabama roster, only about 15 guys from in-state. I expected to see a bunch of suburban Atlanta guys, but not many.
February 25, 20223 yr Three of Texas' four batters made pretty solid contact in the first...encouraging.
February 25, 20223 yr Hey, harmless question. Please don't anyone get upset with me. But before the series starts, could anyone help me out? Does anyone know who Alabama was looking at as their head coach 6 years ago? Just curious.
