I imagine we start Riojas. He needs a confidence boost. Probably limit his innings if we build a big lead early. Save Harrison for Game 2 (K State). 

You think K State beats UTSA?

I'm more worried about the latter.  They score a shit ton of runs.

Even better, I would love to see those roadrunner jokers try to hit Harrison/Grubbs/Volantis back to back to back.

Maybe. I think he’d be successful against any of these teams so I’d have to map out 4 games. I think I’d be trying to save him though.

I was 99% sure we'd play the night game. Does the host get to choose, or is it all TV driven?

Yep. Schloss likes to do this. iirc, we had the night game last year while aggy beat up the 4 seed at 1 pm.

Hope we beat them 12-2 again. Of course no run rule in the post-season.

Pity I won't know for sure I am going before Thursday.

Wonder what the thinking is there.  Just less time to sit around and get anxious?  Less chance of a rain delay that doesn't get finished that day?

I think that is it. He prefers not to wait around.

Hey, slightly off-topic question.

I was looking at the tournament schedule, seeing who made it and who didn't, who we might be up against, etc.

And I was trying to find A&M on the schedule, see which regional they ended up at... and I couldn't find em. And that's just weird... weren't they the preseason #1?  They returned lots of guys from last year's run, right? So they should be in there somewhere. I mean, how could they have completely missed the tournament with those expectations and that level of talent? It's gotta be unheard of, right? So which regional are they in?

Our game must be on ESPN +

They showed the broadcast schedule for Friday and we were not on it.

Indeed. The olds here have 4 whole days to figure out how to watch it.

Runners are a tough battle tested squad. I know they beat both us and aggy on Tuesdays, but never the less, they’ve already beat us at DF.  Don’t take them lightly!

Hook’em!!!

Losers from Friday's game play first on Saturday. Friday winners play the late game on Saturday.

Gives more time for rest in between games and host has the choice as to game times,... why give that advantage to someone you are most likely playing Saturday, plus the weather issue/late game is given to an oppenent.

Trying to sell the KSU-UTSA tickets in SeatGeek. Says not eligible?

Wasting your time (speaking from experience)....people coming to that game will be from those schools and will already have tickets. Plenty of empty seats for games that TEXAS will not be involved in. 

Giving them away will be a challenge.

Personally I hate that we’re playing the afternoon game because it makes it more difficult for the home crowd. I don’t know if I’m going to be able to get off work to go on Friday. 

Eh, Saturday/Sunday are the games to go to anyways. Friday is a tune up game and should be an absolute blowout. Also gives your team more rest and you get to sit back and watch your next opponents duke it out afterwards.

You always take the early game.  Assuming the host you should easily win your first game.  You get to be home and get a full nights rest.  The late game starts at 6.  Which means if all goes perfect those teams are at their hotel at 10, where a bunch of college kids are amped up on adrenaline yet need to get to bed and sleep.  That doesn’t even account for the risk of bad weather.

Was the HCU midweek the one where we had a shutout and Winfield dropped the routine fly ball to end it and we had to play another inning? Or am I thinking of another game?

Pretty sure that's correct.

If it is Ruger I just hope he has his shit together and is all over whatever illness he had. His last two outings have been hammered dogshit with him not making out of 1 out in the 1st vs Florida his last time out (Arky start I just think shocked entire team but he was throwing meh)

Just want to see the kid that was dealing as a Sunday starter with some serious mojo and dependability vs what he finished season as. (again word was he was sick so hopefully that explains all of it away)
