April 21, 20241 yr What’s hilarious is if they reviewed it and he’s out (which he was because the ball did hit him), Pierce would be out there arguing with them about that after the review.

You can't invent hypotheticals to get mad at Pierce about. Plenty of other things to knock him on. 1 minute ago, GreenspointTexas said: The last 3 outs will determine our season/Pierces career This feels like hyperbole
April 21, 20241 yr Cool, so now looks like Pierce will miss the first game of the OU series. Over some bullshit.

April 21, 20241 yr 16 minutes ago, SameSame said: Why do you need one? Everybody knows the ball hit him. He is throwing a tantrum over semantics. Well the umps didn’t know it hit him apparently. They didn’t make any call on the field. That’s ridiculous to not get a review when no call was made.

April 21, 20241 yr Just now, jimmyjazz said: It's hard to believe we've won every conference series but one. Those BYU cougars are borderline unbeatable. lol

April 21, 20241 yr Bizarro season. 1-5 on conference Fridays. 5-1 in conference series’. Nightmare non-conference performance. They certainly know how to turn it on when things are on the line, but it’s hardly enough to dig out of holes they create for themselves Edited April 21, 20241 yr by UnhappilyMarried

April 21, 20241 yr We win just one of those 8 Q4 games we lost and things look very different right now. Don’t even want to think about if we won 2 or 3 of them. We are going to need to win 18 or 19 conference games to get our RPI in respectable territory.

This conference sucks ass which is why we are muddling our way through some of the series. I'll take the series wins but they don't really tell us much due to the competition.
April 21, 20241 yr It doesn’t appear by a cursory reading of the rules that whether or not a batter ball hits a base runner is reviewable by a head coaches challenge

The conference sucking makes the non-conference underperformance even more damning. We pissed away every opportunity to build a good RPI base. Every 2-1 weekend performance vs a middling Big 12 team is immediately cancelled by the next q4 home loss.
