March 8, 20196 yr Great start to the weekend. Perhaps these goofy bastards on the stream will learn how to pronounce a few names by the end of it. Hook em. Edited March 8, 20196 yr by brojangles2

March 8, 20196 yr great sequence in the ninth to get those runs. great at bats to draw walks, getting the bunt down, then clutch hit with RISP.(juiced)
March 8, 20196 yr Is tree throwing their normal Friday guy tomorrow and so forth like we are, or did we just beat their Friday guy?

March 8, 20196 yr Tomorrow's game starts at 8:00 (CT). Hook'm. Does Calif do daylight savings? Edited March 8, 20196 yr by Cairn Horn88
March 8, 20196 yr Getting different for me not to be thinking top 8 seed. 2 more wins at tree and I’ll be all the way there I think.
March 8, 20196 yr Fields' outings have been phenomenal. Makes me think I'm watching a big league closer sometimes.
March 8, 20196 yr Hibbler made a fantastic play for out 2 in the 9th. Charged hard, nab, hard dime to first just in time.
March 8, 20196 yr Love watching us win at sunken diamond, had to mute the stanford dorks on the feed.
March 8, 20196 yr Just got back to the hotel and I have two tree three things to note. There were more Longhorn fans than tree. I don't know what the hell people are talking about, the nike swoosh in chrome looked fantastic during the night game. This team has no quit whatsoever. FUCKING AWESOME!

March 8, 20196 yr Late night .. really late on the east coast. But, not a single complaint (other than maybe McCann’s lackadaisical attempts to block pitches in the dirt ... geezus, bring in someone to teach him!). Madden was poised and determined. He pitched well beyond his age and experience. Another potentially great young arm for now and future.
March 8, 20196 yr I believe the Stanford stream guys are college guys unpaid for the broadcast, outside of working for the station for college credit. I'd take that over some indifferent former MLB dipwad who takes every chance to talk about his playing days versus talking about the game he is calling. Completely spoiled by the Texas radio and LHN team(s). Yes even, Galindo.

I assume you meant Reagan rather than Kennedy. Good teams have to be strong up the middle and right now, we’re weak at two of the three. IMO, Reagan just has to settle down and McCann needs to work on mechanics.

March 8, 20196 yr Yes this series is good reminder how great LHN is inspite of Galindo. I gave up trying to watch the stream since I already have shitty satellite service where I live. Winning opening game on the road in the 9th against a quality opponent gets us off to great start. This is my favorite series every year and usually serves is good indicator for both teams chances to get CWS.

Isn't there some weird stat about how our result against Stanford correlates to how far we go in postseason?
March 8, 20196 yr With the quality of the stream, I don’t imagine it’d be very easy to sync them up, but did anybody try streaming andjust listening to the radio broadcast? Don’t know why that didn’t cross my mind last night.

Let's see....in the years we made the national championship game/series: In 2002: We went 1-2 at Stanford In 2004: We went 1-2 at Stanford In 2005: We went 3-0 at home In 2009: We went 2-1 at Stanford So there doesn't seem to be a correlation.
March 8, 20196 yr So let me get this straight...we sweep #1 LSU, take game 1 from Stanford (on the road), win 2 of 3 from an always tough Louisiana team, take 3 of 4 from a Big 10 school and Texas has an RPI of 39 and a SOS of 98? Yale, UCNG, William & Mary, Wright State, SHSU (who we beat), Georgia Southern, and Gardner Webb all ranked ahead of us? What am I missing?

Though I guess that is easy for me to say. But yeah hopefully the LHN is forever even if Disney bails or whatever. Edited March 8, 20196 yr by Valmy77

We do seem to have a shitload of money We need to. It's such a game changer in selling to recruits and other students. Want to go into broadcasting, sports reporting or TV production after graduation? WE HAVE A FUCKING NETWORK THAT FOCUSES ON THIS! Our on-air talent should be used for graduates before being gobbled up by the networks. Build a base of UT alum throughout the sports broadcasting and reporting world.
March 8, 20196 yr Yeah I would love for that to be a pipeline and opportunity for our RTF students/grads. Though they need to perform up to professional levels, this isn't baby's first TV job...like those Stanford guys. Edited March 8, 20196 yr by Valmy77
