  1. She’s throwing 1st pitch strikes. Need to adjust and be a tad more aggressive.
  2. Great change to end the inning. Atwood letting two get by is no bueno.
  3. Most definitely. The Huskers have only been to the CWS a few times. They pretty much suck at baseball, so that's why no one has really bitched much about Omaha. Honestly, the CWS would be much easier to rotate than the WCWS due to the stadium issue.
  4. so do we talk about the game tonight here or in the WCWS thread?
  5. I'm seeing this all the time now. Every fucking play at the plate is reviewed. It's maddening. Plus, it should only be obstruction if the catcher is blocking the plate without the ball AND it affects the runner's path to the bag. If a runner is hosed by a mile, it can't be obstruction and shouldn't even be reviewable.
  6. It will be great playing an SEC schedule instead of tech, isu, kansas, etc. It should knock OU down a peg. They play two tough series every season (us and OSU). Now, it will be almost every week.
  7. Did we run rule her? Can’t remember.
  8. Udub spending so much kinda surprises me. Not great ROI.
  9. I'm choosing to believe the fake 995 insiders that he's not really liked in the AD's office and unless he makes it to the supers and is competitive, he is shitcanned.
  10. no, we were 47 and 47th in RPI/RPI and 31 and 31st in SOS/SOS.
  11. Most people probably know this but the Cajuns starting 2B is the younger batbros (of batbros youtube channel "fame").
  12. It's easier said than done. These girls have been taught their entire lives to leave when the pitcher's arm reaches a certain spot on the watch dial, such that they leave just when the ball is released; relying purely on the human eye, this is fine. But once you start slowing things down frame by frame, you realize they sometimes actually leave a hair early. Who really gives a shit? Especially in a game where something far more important - the strike zone - moves around inning to inning. If it's imperceptible in real time, there's no way it's affecting the fielders on a hit or conferring any kind of significant advantage (except on a steal). Don't get me wrong . . . it should still be illegal, in order to discourage runners from playing games as in a hit and run or get a jump to score on a single. But base umps have always watched out for this and it's never been a problem in the game until we started going down to the microsecond. It should be policed with the eye, not replay IMO. I think's that's in keeping with the spirit of the game and the rule.
  13. yeah - this is bullshit. Unless it's egregious enough to be seen by the naked eye by the ump, and possibly affect the defense in any way, it should not be disallowed and thus should not be reviewable. Going down to the millisecond on something that doesn't matter is idiotic.
  14. So we just gotta beat Stanford and OSU.
  15. Half full: We held off a scrappy and under-seeded TAMU team playing out of their minds. Trailing in all three games, we came back and won two of them, which will give us the confidence we need to do something similar, if necessary, in OKC. Half-empty: After being arguably the best team during the regular season, with a top 10 pitching staff, we are limping into OKC and our bullpen looks shaky at best. You can't win championships in softball/baseball without elite pitching, so we get shit on in OKC and go 2 and que. Pick one. There is no middle ground.
  16. Yep. It also helps if blue is not giving her the high stuff. If so, then we feel like we have to chase and it's game over.
  17. Ha! In my defense they ranked 130th in batting average nationally.
  18. Softball on tv is now replays interspersed with actual softball.
  19. I love how every exciting defensive play in softball is now challenged/ reviewed. Totally ruining the flow of the game.
  20. No. Their offense is straight dogshit.
  21. No they go on OUs side. OU has a fucking cakewalk to the finals IMO.
  22. They need to change the review rules. You should get 1 that you keep if you are right. Also, no reviews of leaving early except straight steals. Leaving early on a hit or tag is left up to the umpire.
