The team that has had the most success beating us this year is Texas.   If we can get that under control we can go real far.

To an extent, but 6 of our 9 losses involve us scoring 2 runs or less, so I’d say it’s more due to lack of hitting/talent in the lineup than our mistakes. No team is going to be perfect and our lack of hitting has left us with a margin of error that ranges from slim to none in most of our losses, and it’s not like we’re just loaded with hitting talent but aren’t performing.

We are horrible at bunting. They aren’t being asked to bunt all the time like they were in Augie’s time, but it’s an important time when they are asked now (1st & 2nd w/no outs) and they fail 80% of the time.  Very frustrating.

Definitely agree on that one. Too many of our guys can’t get bunts down when they need to.

Somehow I have this feeling that bunting comprised the majority of instructed BP under Augie.

Also, FSSW+ if you're fumbling around for the channel.

Ha. With the at bats toward the last year’s, it definitely seemed like that. I will say that overall, our guys take way better ABs now, and the changing nature of the game probably leads to less emphasis on bunting form an early age, so our guys are probably worse at it coming out of HS than Augue’s players.  

Pierce definitely prioritizes power over bunting though.

Yeah, these fuckers don't know how to bunt....

"Pierce definitely prioritizes power over bunting though."

Pretty sure you can do both.

Why isn't Craig Way doing the PBP?    I just heard him doing the PBP at the Tenn/Iowa basketball game!?

Word.

Niiice.  Pierce certainly seems to be doing better with a young/inexperienced staff than Schloss. 

This  is the second game I remember Bertelson starting, and both have been against LHPs. Does pierce know something about reverse splits?

Is there any history to that TCU logo? Google and Helmet project isn’t showing anything, aside from the below. Remember them doing some script frogs before, but don’t recall the interlocked TC. Is that a fake “throwback”?

Solo shot for TCU. 3-1 Texas

Big run for their confidence. Hopefully we can keep the offense going.

Yep. Fake throwback, their baseball team has worn them before.

Fake, but honestly they look good.

What’s the signal for bunt and hit for power at the same time?

Kent Murphy would be stroking out over all of these bunts. 

This is an Augie kind of game

Is FSSW+ an actual channel on DirecTV?  The googlewebs say 664 but that ain't working.

I'm sure I failed to pony up for the "National SemiInteresting Sorta Sports Package" or some shit.
