    Something that is underrated right now. Mike's call to have the runner steal second during the intentional walk. It would've been easy to just leave her at first...Reese is being walked anyway, what's

Gasso clowning us now. Since the series loss in Austin, OU has now won 5 straight and looking for 6

The disrespect starting a 12 ERA pitcher over Landry in game 3. She knows we cant score in the early innings so she's toying with us, and we can't do anything about it.

Not even disrespect. It’s pure gamesmanship - they have the series locked up and we have looked awful at the plate. Gamble with Smith and maybe you don’t have to throw Landry at all today

This team is COOKED

70 pitches in 2 innings.  Ouch.  One speed just won't cut it against them.  Have to have a credible off speed.

Disrespect?  I’m sorry, but what have they done to earn OU’s respect?  So far, it’s just another routine asskickin’ in the making …

Edit .. 3-run HR

Put in Sophia Simpson. 

This is insanity.  She's got one credible pitch and they aren't missing it.  Either foul or a rope.  Her body language is terrible.  Pull her.

Ok. got that over with. 
 

LOTTA GAME LEFT. 

bat to ball. See ball be ball. 
 

Get on base and play 

If I thought getting run-ruled would help, I'd root for it. Anything to wake up this lethargic bunch. 

Singleton has to be actively telling them not do draw walks lol.   Every hitters count we get in we swing at a ball and get weak contact.   

Huge difference in the offensive approaches.   We go in hoping to hit a pitchers mistake, they go to the habit looking to make adjustments on where the pitcher is attacking the zone.

I think the graph on Smith was in error.   OU board shows her era at 2.59 overall and 7.15 in conference.   Regardless,  good move by Gasso to start Smith in this environment to gain experience for the postseason.   

aggy defeats Ark 2-0 to prevent a sweep,  but will be behind OU by 1 game in the loss column for first place.

it really is frustrating White can't get great pitchers.  he may have reached his peak.  as far as the hitting goes, he's gonna need to recruit bigger players.

Correct.  They don't even swing at anything but rise balls up in the zone.  They are geared up for it 100%

Good thing we didn't sign Canady. It really might have set TK back. 😡

Run-rule looks to be coming. And I guess I'm here for it. 

Getting embarrassed *might* be the only thing that kicks this team’s ass, mentally. Or we backslide, drop a game to Kentucky, lose early in the SECT and end up outside the top 8

Here I was thinking we might win a game in Norman. I’m not sure MW is ever gonna get over the OU hump. He’s Mack at this point.

We knew this when we hired him from Oregon. He'll get most teams to the CWS, but he never has a team that can win a title. He was still a major upgrade over Connie Clark

Come on Mia damn!

I mean not that it would have mattered in the grand scheme of things but come on.

Ain’t this like loss 6 in 10 games. I feel like we’ve been losing a lot lately 

Execution. Details. Mental engagement. It's all in one dugout, not the other. That, my friends, is coaching. 

This should about do it. They get 10 it’s over here right ?

Or is it 4 innings?

Yeah, 6 losses in our last 3 SEC series. We knew this was our hardest slate (Tenn, LSU, OU) and we failed

As long as Gasso is there you aren't going to out-offense them.  That's been a miserable failure.  Like was said above you have to have great pitching to beat them.

Exactly. 

Leaving on Tuesday to play OkSt was a mistake.   Should have been totally focused on OU and been watching film and working on approach.

yep. the pitching was never gonna be good enough.  goal should be to make the WCWS at this point.  that is the ceiling for this team.  too many flaws.

This reeks of a few years ago in Clearwater. Something is wrong in the locker room on this team. They have shut down over the last 3 weeks and there has to be a reason for that. 

Our offense seems to have fallen off a cliff the last few series, our pitching was never gonna completely shut them down. The lack of run support is sickening 

I have admittedly kinda checked out of the softball team because the baseball team has me pretty locked-in. So, I'm not tracking what's going on with White's crew. So, having said that...

What the fuck is going on with this team?

Kavan just seemed like she had this flippant "I just need to get through this" approach

I really think it is more simple than that.  we can't ride having one pitcher and inconsistent hitting.   TK has to be mentally drained at this point knowing she's can give up 1 maybe 2 runs max to win against good teams.  she's not Canady, she isn't built to withstand all this work.

Why has Salmon been in the dog house?  She looks way better than Morgan.

Great question.  Eye test and stats are both better
