This. Yawn 

Yeah, I was bummed about missing the WCWS, but it would just lead, at best, to yet another ass kicking by OU.  There wasn't a single inning we played them this year that I thought we had a chance to win.  I enjoy the emotion and excitement of softball playoffs (Jomboy has some great breakdowns this year BTW), but honestly with OU being 8 standard deviations better than everyone else, the whole thing seems rather pointless.

Even the 6 innings of game 2 when we had the lead, you just knew 

That was a shitty game.  Maybe there was a brief moment after we homered and went up 2-1 or 3-1 (memory is fading), I let a small ray of hope in.  That was foolish.  

Happened to glance at the espn scroll at the right time to see that fsu has an outfielder named muffley and a pitcher named sandercock?

tee hee.

You "tee hee" and "heavy duty" too, don't you?

And which beach would this be, out of curiosity?

Stanford eliminates Washington. Stanford moves on to the final 4, which is 2 rounds further than expected for a 9 seed

Stanford and OU tied at 2 in the 7th inning. Game is closer than I expected it would be 

Tree pitching is so good. They have like less than 30 HR as a team lol

Canady is a stud.  She nearly did this herself.  If they bring her in at 2-1, Tree may have taken this.

Maybe but 2 isn’t gonna beat OU. Stanford has a pitiful offense 

To knock off OU as the champ, you just gotta be the best in the country at hitting. and pitching. and fielding.  It's a simple formula really.  

FSU beats Tenn 5-1 so it's OU vs. FSU in championship series Wednesday night

OU is on a huge win streak, but FSU is 24-1 in their last 25 games. 

Two pitchers with an ERA under 1.05 and 1.60 as a team
.307 team average with 59 HR and 129 SB

FSU lost to OU 5-4 in March in Norman.  They scored 4 runs off Alex Storako in 4 innings, and the Bahl shut them down for the final 3 innings as OU rallied from a 4-3 deficit.

Games 1 and 2 of the World Series make sense having run rules in place, but for the if necessary game 3 I would remove the run rule.

Far from a given.  I’d bet OU in 3 but wouldn’t bet on a sweep.

Lol.  Double standard BS.  We do what the men do?

Men don’t scream like that all game 

Men don’t slam the bat down and go crazy celebrating an intentional walk 

If it works, great.  Do it.  But don’t pull this ‘it’s girls so we get shit on’ BS

There, I feel better.

OU in 3 is what I’m thinking as well. 

Well, I like teams who run at high level/maximum performance.

OU is about to pull the paddle out.

Really fun team to watch x3 years.

Delayed again 

 

Nice robbery there. FSU had a pitcher with a 33 mph changeup I've never seen that before.

56-1 and 53 straight is probably the greatest NCAA season of all time in any sport in the modern era with more parity and given the game-to-game luck involved in softball/baseball and it only being 7 innings. Sucks that it's the sooners hopefully we get to that level at some point.

I am going to keep putting off coming to terms OU is a softball school. Pretty good season.

more parity

Really?  I'd hate to see how lopsided things were before.  Right now there's only one team with enough talent to win it all.  How can there be less parity that that?

Back in the day 2-3 west coast teams were amazing and everyone else was trash.  Even outside of OU there’s very solid programs throughout now - but I get what you’re saying too.  
If you look at the top 15 it’s all very solid programs in the big money sports - mainly football.  80’s/90’s OU, Bama, FSU, UT were almost nonexistent in softball.  Even Clemson now has really invested softball and it’s showing.  

There are other schools that can compete with OU, but they won’t until they commit their attentions and resources towards the sport the way the Sooners have. They have the best coach, the best players, the best NIL, the best exposure and they are building new facilities. No one else is making that type commitment.

And every goddamn mother fucker on this site wishes we were that good. 

No one really gives a shit about swimming. 

OU is literally the standard, period.

They’re definitely making a major commitment.  Gasso would be the second highest paid ncaa baseball coach.  That’s insane.  
Also saw last year the women’s final had better ratings than the baseball finale, both on ESPN.  

I never really viewed female athletes as giant douchebags until OU softball. Jordy Bahl strutting around after every strike. Bat flipping walks.  So thanks sooners.
