Yeah Oregon got shafted there. You can't say the catcher wasn't blocking the plate. His foot was on the basepath.

I think the call ultimately came down to them deciding the Oregon runner had time to avoid contact because the catcher doesn't move into his path, he's just set up in the path? The Oregon runner absolutely could've dove to his right for the bag instead of crashing into the catcher. That's why they called it malicious contact because he went for contact first, base second.

Yes if this happened in Knoxville there'd be riots and Tony V would've jumped on the umps back like a rabid monkey and would've had to have been peeled off after receiving a tranquilizer.

Murray St leads host Ole Miss 7-6, T9. Bases loaded, 1 out. Chance to tack on some insurance.

You mean to tell me that baseball is a fickle sport and lower seed teams can actually win at this thing and our Vols aren’t in a death spiral??? Say it ain’t so! Say it ain’t so! I. MUST. STICK. TO. MY. CONSTANT. BITCHING. AND. MOANING.

Tony would be so fired up that a tranquilizer wouldn’t do anything 🤣

I think it also goes to show why you don’t take that opening game for granted and it makes sense to throw your ace.

Anyone can beat anyone. It’s beautiful.

What's so humorous is that in the BB forum fans were questioning why Southern Mississippi and Mississippi didn't use their Ace in game one. Here's the funny part most of the ones questioning that move were the same ones screaming save Doyle til today.🤦
