    I brought the bad juju yesterday so someone else is welcome to take a shot at it. 

    I was about to say I'll do it. I can't stand Tennessee. 

    I'm surprised the LSU fans aren't on here saying go horns so they can go ahead and get their new coach.

    There’s going to be an ass load of disappointed hillbillies here in Omaha in about 5 hours

    Also, sorry MSUdawg, but hopefully a lot of disappointed Mississippi trailer park residents about 5 hours after that 

    No worries. I love disappointing your dreams.

    And this is where a nice little follow up would be appropriate - "And coach, what exactly did you try to do to slow that down?  I'll hang up and listen."

    I'll give you that.. letting a pitcher get into a rhythm isn't a good thing. I would be frustrated too.

    Take this for what it is, but...

    My wife does weird prediction shit. Meaning she will take out a piece of paper and write down her expected outcome of an event and afterwards she will pull it out and show me the outcome she predicted. She is also weirdly right most of the time.

    Her prediction:

    "MSU wins 3-1, Texas makes the finals though from the losers bracket." Wife then states, "If they (Texas) make the finals (Championship games) we will cancel our weekend plans and go to Omaha."

     

    That sounds like some gypsy shit.. but I ain't tempting fate and calling her wrong.  very possible. 

     

  5. I think best case scenario we beat Tennessee - MSU loses to UVA - we beat MSU's 3rd starter - then we have to win 2 against UVA. 
    I don't want to be a pussy or anything but I'd rather not face Bendar again if we don't have to. If we do have to... hopefully we learned enough from the last outing to not completely shit the bed again. 
    And it goes without saying - this shit is far from over. I think 35 out of the last 39 teams to win it won their first game. All that tells me is that 4 teams dropped their first one and still won it all. I think we can hold off on the fire Pierce thread until we're actually out of Omaha. 
    Our 3rd starter is the guy ya'll love so much who humps his glove before he delivers.

  6. [mention=6153]Spaceman_Spiff[/mention] came on and said Bednar's ball spin was 2600 rpm-plus, which is super-high.
    Spin can at the very least create optical illusions.
    Last I checked, the very best hitters can detect some spin on a curve ball.  You kind of wonder if this spin deceives into thinking it's a curve or slider.
    I was looking for earlier in the year this was discussed I believe with the pitching ninja. Take a 91mph with a high spin rate over a flat 96 mph pitcher any day.

    Hopefully the Tennessee pitcher we face doesn’t throw mid 90’s fastballs down the pipe or we’re fucked.

    You should be good. TN makes their living at their small park hitting homers. They aren't going to put on a slug fest against y'all in OMAHA

    and it looks like the wind should be blowing in  on tuesday per the weather, which of course makes it tougher to knock one out. 

    Just WIN.

    Texas fans are very defensive about baseball. It was the umpire! It was foreign substance! 

    No, we just got schooled by a guy throwing 2 pitches that we saw to open the season and made no adjustment on. Did we burn the tape from Arlington and therefore not watch our at-bats from when he struck us out 100 times then too? 

    Different pitcher unless you are talking about Simms. Bednar didn't play the first two weeks of the season 

     

  9. Hey congrats to your team State. Hopefully we play again soon.
    Very likely I would say. You should be able to take care of the pretender UT. And hopefully we can squash the cavs.

    Hopefully we can get a series on the schedule in the future. Crazy that before the game to start the year, we had not played since the line drive of Gene Morgan's shin in 1985 in Omaha.
