    Quick side-note to Tech's win today...this W gives Tech now more CWS wins than aggy has.  Just a little icing on the cake.

If this goes to three, though, I'm betting on Vandy.  And with Rocker pitching tomorrow that's a good bet.

Gunned.  Hell of a throw

Top 9:  7-3

bad base running by Vandy....great throw by RF to nail runner going from 1st to 3rd.  That lefty Mich pitcher has been impressive.

Got to love a hustle double

Great bunt.

I'm telling you, God decided weeks ago Blue was winning this thing.

How Henry fell to the 74th overall selection is beyond me.     D'Backs got a steal - $844K slot.

To clarify:  If I had to bet, I'd still go with Vandy.  But I can't deny that since the UCLA series, Michigan has looked like fate is on their side.

Is Criswell still going to start tomorrow?

Vandy whistler asshole is back.

He waits till the late innings.

Living in Arizona works great during football season when the games start at 9am instead of 11.  But it sucks when a sporting event you wanna watch starts at 4pm.

It will be interesting to see how Michigan manages their staff going forward.  I assume Criswell starts tomorrow but when he's pulled, it will be all guys that haven't thrown in Omaha the rest of the way (unless Kauffman is able to come back for some work on Wednesday).

Nice job, Blue.  Yet again.

UCLA has gotta be thinking "why'd these last-4 fucks wind up in our super?"

Anyone check on aggy? Are they okay, or are they calling Vandy undeserving of being in the conference because they’re not “real SEC”?

They're saying Vandy doesnt care, they already Sec tournament

looking at Michigan in the CWS finals...is a cautionary tale about expanding the postseason in any sport and thus devaluing the regular season. (e.g. college football playoff)

the Wolverines top 3 series wins by RPI during the 2019 regular season were:

#63 Minnesota
#73 Maryland
#120 Northwestern

that's it. That's it. The expanded format really gave UM a free pass for an underwhelming regular season. And to their credit they took advantage.

should have been a solo HR. 

The replays at the CWS have been awful. Why use it if you aren't going to overturn the incorrect calls.

There you go....didn't play anybody, and the officiating sucks.

Yeah, best pitcher for a game #3 situation for Michigan was their Lefty in game #1.  If Rocker pitches well and Vandy forces a game #3, Vandy has the better pitching advantage.

But Hell, this Michigan team is fearless.  They kinda remind me of the Coastal Carolina "Fightin' Chickens" team 🐓🐓🐓 that won in 2016 !!

Vandy is still the favorite in Vegas to win the series. It’s a slight edge, but Vegas gives Vandy a better chance to win 2, than Michigan to win 1.

Very well put. But you needed to throw “sip umpire” in there somewhere to make it perfect.

 

Michigan hits with RISP. Plays great defense. Pitchers throw strikes. It’s been 6 weeks of this. It wins. 

Looking forward to watching tonight.

A 180 from the shit sammich we were served all season. Hail the Victors (I hope)!

Aggy worried they may have to cancel their travel plans to the White House if Michigan wins it all.

I am honored, on behalf of my alma mater, to be so constantly on your minds, *sniff*.

I think that betting on baseball games is about as foolish a bet as one can make, but I'd certainly give the edge to Vandy tonight.  Which means Michigan will probably chase Rocker in the 2nd inning and win this going away.

Yes.  I'll say it again, but this was our best team probably ever.  And just caught a team of destiny.

Not that you don't have a point, but how do you feel about March Madness?

I'm not sure it devalues the regular season, as much as it can allow teams to play a tougher schedule because they don't have to feel like it's one loss and you are out (football - unless you are Alabama or other SEC). CFB schedules, largely, schedule away from marquee opponents to shield teams away from potential losses.

I give Michigan credit for overcoming having a shortened season by playing in the Winter and Late Winter (aka spring) in the Midwest.
(and it takes a lot for me to give the Piss & Blue credit for anything)

I believe cairn horn was quoting things that ags have said, not voicing his own opinion.  

 

ESPN is running it into the ground, as they do, but that John Kerr performance from the 1962 CWS is incredible.  In one day, he had 2 CG, 19 IP, and 313 pitches.  Oh, and he had the game-winning sac fly in Game 2 of the day.

Vandy's wearing the pajamas.  I really hope Michigan wraps it up tonight now.

Hate having to watch the first two hours of the game from work, but thankful I can.
