June 5, 20187 yr I would have guessed Vandy had way more CWS appearances than Duke... Surprised U-Dub has zero priors, what with the west coast influence and their resources. Edited June 5, 20187 yr by slorch

June 5, 20187 yr I can be very millennial in these situations...lol. The here and now is spectacular... For right now.

Our resources have historically been spent on everything but baseball. We didn't have a stadium with permanent seating until 2014, IIRC. Before that, the "stadium" was a collection of those temporary bleachers that you normally find at shitty high school fields: That's actually the "improved" version from the one that they used when I was there in the 90's.

June 5, 20187 yr I believe the purple warning track only lasted one year because it was universally mocked.
June 5, 20187 yr Anyone remember when old Comiskey Park had the turf infield/grass outfield? Those fields remind me of it.

June 5, 20187 yr I actually feel really damn good about our matchup with Vandy. Yes they swept us in the regular season. But this team is completely different since the page turned to April. (14-15, 2-7 in conference.. to start the season). Now we are 35-26 and went 15-15 in conference. During that winning span we went 10-1 vs Top 10 rpi teams (UF,Ark,UM and FSU). The NCAA put the regional in Vandys tiny stadium due to construction on ours is what Kendall Rogers said. I hate it because we would of easily pulled 11k (Upper level isn't finished yet) and had to turn people away in droves. But so it goes. Sorry guys both of us can't lose for the anti-sec haters.

I'll root for Vandy, just because they are the oddest ducks of the SEC.
June 5, 20187 yr That would mean the Vandy Whistler heads to Omaha. I don't know, I may have to take MSU in this one.

June 8, 20187 yr So in the D1Baseball podcast they still are sure our pitching will collapse underneath a cascade of walks at any minute...and fair enough. But at least one of them, Kendall Rogers I think, picked us to win.

June 8, 20187 yr Omaha Prediction: Bracket 1 Florida vs. Texas Tech Texas vs. Arkansas Bracket 2 Cal State Fullerton vs. Mississippi State Stetson vs. Oregon State

June 8, 20187 yr Seems to me that the unc coach is overmanaging his pitching so far. Pulled his starter after a leadoff double in the 6th and just pulled the reliever after a leadoff walk in the 7th. Both looked to still be effective.
June 8, 20187 yr Something brewing for Stetson in the 9th. 2 outs, bases loaded, down 7-4. And a fly out to the warning track to end it. Edited June 8, 20187 yr by WBT
June 8, 20187 yr Just now, Horny Bull said: Washington loads the bases with no outs T2 and fails to score. CSF leads 1-0 That's bad baseball.
June 8, 20187 yr Haven’t been able to watch any of the games today, but I just checked the box scores.CSF has 5 errors?
June 8, 20187 yr Minnesota pitcher did well to get out of the first alive. 3-0 Beavers, and it looks like Heimlich has his best stuff.
