When they face this same Miami pitcher again, I see a different game plan with better at-bats and more steals. They'll make her throw strikes.
The only fuss I have about the game is that Raven Chavanne led off the bottom of the first clearly beating out a throw to first by at least a step. It wasn't a "bang-bang" play at all-wasn't even close. Both coaches and the first base coach argued it after the play and after the end of the inning Ralph went on the field to complain to the ump, who must have just decided the first play was gonna be an out and had her right hand cocked after breakfast this morning. It started off the game on a sour note.

| Well, the Lady Vols got their chance at Jessica Simpson again and had no problems. I think Ellen and Ivy are primed for tomorrow. If the bats stay lively they can win both games. Like my old coach said about double elimination..."...just win the first game....they'll worry about the second more than us."

| In 2008, VT had to beat UT twice to advance. Unfortunately, they did. UT was up early, but rain delayed the game 1... After the rain, VT came back and won the first and then shutout UT in the second. I think it is time for some payback! |

| Would it be a double header against them today if they were to win the first game? |

After UT wins the first game, yes, they will play a second game today. |

| UT up 2-0 start of the 6th inning.
Georgia made it to the next round, and UF was knocked out by USF |

| | Senior Member | Managed to catch the ending on Gametracker on my phone. Perhaps I can get home before the second game starts. A lot of seeded teams needed two wins today. |
