Hook'em Horns!  Glad we were able to hold Air Force to single digit runs.

Pretty sure we want DBU. 

They have very erratic starting pitching. I'm not sure who they would even start against us because recently they've been trying bullpen arms because their starting pitching is so bad. 

Need to see who they start tonight against LA Tech.

DBU has had several Omaha caliber teams over the last 8 years or so.

This team is not one of them. I agree that I think I prefer DBU tomorrow.

LA Tech has 3 starters with a sub 4 ERA. 

DBU really has nobody that starts with a sub 4 ERA unless they're going to start a bullpen arm. Which may be their only chance to beat Texas. I think we definitely want Dallas Baptist.

This was the first postseason game I've been to. Good stuff. 

I think my first that I remember was the 2000 super against Penn St. 

Theres nothing else quite like the tradition of excellence and the expectation. You can feel it in the stadium.

Nickel City if anyone wants to come hang and buy me a drink. 

DBU is starting Bubba Hall again. Made his first start in the conference tournament last week. That should give you an idea of how bad DBU's pitching has been recently. Their Friday guy is only getting his 2nd start. 

If DBU wins this I guess we would face Johnson (FR with a 4.30 ERA).

So what's their deal? Do they hit really well or something?

You can and you can see opposing teams wilt under the pressure.  AF did a little bit and Penn St for sure did.  I think they had 4 or 5 errors on bunts that series

They've been really bad for 2 months. Their deal is they haven't been good since the start of the season. 

Had they not played the #1 nonconference strength of the schedule they likely wouldn't even been in the postseason. D1 baseball didn't have them in their regional projections.

AF for sure did today. It's just different. I wonder if it's almost worse for them having played here earlier this year.

A month ago, a team that lost today to an Ivy league team was projected to host.

I have never been more proud of a club than the 2000 team. We had not been to Omaha since 1993 and had weakly flamed out every time since. And we were in the losers bracket and looked to be going that way again and then suddenly we didn't, storming back to shock ASU at their place. Hosting our first Super Regional and going to Omaha for the first time in what seemed like forever.

Sure we went 0-2 when we got there but it signalled our time in the baseball wilderness was over.

First inning today reminded me of that Penn State game -- the atmosphere was simply too big for them.

You can thank Penn st for that one

Sure but the unexpected part was beating Arizona State. That was all us.

That and they aren't very good. They went 15-15 in the 15th best RPI conference in the country.

Wasn't that the coming out party for Regional Ray Clark?  I could be getting my years mixed up.  Anyway, we need a pitcher to step up like that this year.

La Tech starter is a big boy

Yes it was!

Double for DBU in the 2nd but then thrown out at 3rd. What the hell DBU? You don't get thrown out at 3rd.

then he got busted trying to steal 3rd.

Trying to steal 3rd with a lefty batting and he was out by 10 feet

That had to be a missed sign. The runner at 2nd took off late. 

Probably a hit and run but the hitter missed the sign.

I hope DDA is NOT who you are referring too.....

Disgusted Steve Carell GIF

That was a bomb.  It hit pretty high up the light pole to the left of the taco shack sign

DBU cf just made a sweet Willie Mays catch for the 2nd out. 
 

hit to his left trailing away and headed for the wall, he ran it down like a deep safety for the interception. 

Edited by Droopy

These teams aren't fucking around...lots of first pitch swings and not many deep counts.  I guess the pitchers throwing strikes is a big part of it too.

Edited by WBT

DDA was behind me in the bathroom line after the game. Dude stank. 

DBU in a bit of a spot in the bottom of the 5th.  Men on 2nd and 3rd with no one out.  Pitching change.

DBU only has 2 decent arms so this is likely to be a disaster. 

That’s one more than Air Force has.
