The Official #1 Tennessee vs Florida SEC Tourney Championship Game Thread (Sunday May 29 3PM EST ESPN2)

[cardvolfan]

As I recall Sewell has had good success vs. the gators, so we'll probably see him after Joyce.

Sewell was always a Gator fan prior to signing with Tennessee. I feel certain we will see him.

I’m pretty sure one of the officials last night was on the infamous Jeffrey Macias crew. Doubt UT will ever see Macias umpire another game. I’m sure he’s on the quiet “black list”.

We’ve had the first base ump for several games.
He’s pretty solid.
GBO!!

2pm CT

It's on ESPN2 today .... go there to see the game.

Imo Zander, Joyce, and Cam. For a velo change I’d actually go with that order. It’s crazy that we have at least 4 or 5 more that could give us an inning or two. In TV I trust.

Everyone of our relievers are available for tonight, and I think CTV and CFA want to ideally get them some work to be ready for Regionals. I‘m guessing something along the lines of:
Ben Joyce 3 innings
Camden Sewell 2 innings
Zander Sechrist 2 innings
some combo of:
Mark McLaughlin
Will Mabrey
Kirby Connell
Redmond Walsh

Stella says GBO !!! WIN it ALL .....

Yes. I thought he did a great job of de-escalating. Macias was the only dud.

I think it will be leftie rightie leftie rightie in some fashion. If it is close could see situational. No one in bullpen not available today. Short leash for everyone.

Vol network coverage starts at 2:45 EDT, game at 3

Thanks, hopefully the Razorbacks vs Vandy game doesn’t go into extras and we start on time.

Oh wait……

Yes she does…

 

[woodpusher]

That’s what I thought.

Perhaps too fine a point but it looks like 3 pm EDT / 2 pm EST (does anyone have that this time of year?) / 2 pm CDT

 

[Aerie Vol]

Yup. 63-65 is the range.

Ooh. That's good info. I hadn't considered the losers bracket route which would require possibly two more wins.

Yes yes yes. I know. I'm not getting ahead of ourselves, I'm just discussing the baseball tourney format.

We need to win the last game. And only have 7 losses. That would be a 63-7 record if we go 1-0 from here on out.

 

[HalfullVol]

Somebody help me with my calculations....

Is 62 wins our target?

Just get the W in front of u

One game at a time

The season continues when u focus on just the one game in front of u

However, fans out here need to arrange their social calendar

Started watching Vol Baseball when covid cut the season short. I never really kept up with baseball until then. That being said I have spent all weekend waiting for games to start and watching games till 2am. I’ll be in the doghouse tonight because I’m watching the game today. Well worth it. Been too long to have a dominant Vol team. I’m enjoying every minute. I still haven’t learned the whole strategy of saving pitchers or anything else, but I am hoping we go all out and win. Hate the gators and don’t want the hanging a banner and want to hang as many as we can.

My opinion, if you can get in the doghouse, you can get out.

I say it's great to be a Tennessee Vol!

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Will we have a Ben Joyce sighting sometime today on the mound ....

 

[fryeguy93]

Allen Bell just posted something I did not realize
Tennessee has more home runs than opponents’ earned runs allowed

I’m sure the scouts would appreciate being able to catch an early flight out of town

 

[WillisWG]

Any idea who the Gators will throw?

swag probably Sproat

Just savoring the sweep in Gainesville. First two games were without Tony, then the monumental comeback in extra innings…

Looking forward to seeing the guns pop out in preferred seating!
