As soon as I turned the live feed on, UT scored twice to take the lead. You're welcome :whistling:

10-8, not 8-6.

2 runs either way. And a win is a win. I'll take it

The saying lightning doesn't strike twice but twice yet back to back wild pitches allowed the Vols to score runs.

Clearly Alabama proved where they are 9-17 team with only one division win. Even a easy pop out was missed, and the Crimson Tide player fell down like he was pushed.



A moral victory for the Crimson Tide they lead the game for 7 innings, only to implode in the 8th.

Now 3-0 When we score 10 runs,.
It feels excellent to come back from 6 runs vs the Crimson Tide.
In all other division games when we got down by 3 or more runs we were unable to come back. I know this is against the Crimson Tide so not going to get carried away but still I think this has increased their confidence.

No I don't they think do not when the weather allows them to play with no problems.

Last year the Vols played a game where I think there was a rule if the rain is light, and one team stilll leads by 9 or more and no change after 6 or 7 innings the game ends. It was against one of the cupcake teams early in the season.

No run rule in SEC play until the tournament. In non-conference it is up to both coaches to decide whether they want to enforce a run rule. Very rarely do they.

That was some good info. I didn't know about the no slaughter rule in D1

Some conferences have a run rule the first game of a DH but it is my understanding that is the only time its allowed by NCAA rules. I would like to know for sure if anyone knows but its my belief its not allowed on a single game. I know it has happened from time to time but that doesn't fall with the rules of D1 baseball if I am correct.

Edit: I was mistaken and 51 is correct. I ask a D1 coach and the run rule can be put into effect if both coaches agree in out of conference games. Conference rules govern the conference game.
