Jawja coming and they have the bark and the bite. We need to get the kennel ready for new occupants. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree. We just don't need to say "who let tha dawgs out?" Smokey is the only dog for Vol fans!

Scrolling thru the 2026 schedule noticed we didnt play UGA this year. I believe that should be in our favor as they havent batted aganist any of our stellar pitching.

There is good power in the Georgia bats, so we will need those arms. Their arms are good but not great, our bats are good but not great. It may come down to who plays the best D.

At least, we’re at home. GLV!

Anybody know if we plan to roll out Pickens our on Thursday or stick with the 50/50 mid-game switch we've used much of the season?

 

[RumpleVolskin]

Uhhh ok

Glad you enjoyed humor attempt (not). Shame folks can't do the line from frozen,"let it go!" Sic-em Smokey!

I have seen UGA play quite a bit this year. The worst thing the LVs can do is give up walks and HBP because UGA will definitely make you pay for them. Fielding errors will be just as deadly. I see the LVs best chance of winning this is in winning it in 2 games. If it goes to 3 games, UGA's bats have the advantage. Of course, if the LVs hitters actually start hitting, then the LV odds go way up.
GO LADY VOLS !!!

Interesting but I don't think any of the teams in the all-SEC super regionals have played each other this year. ALA vs LSU; OK vs State; TN vs GA.

Go Lady Vols!

Karen knows...we haven't been let in on her plans...

 

[Chickenfarmer]

Let’s go LVs. Can’t leave runners stranded like we have done in games we lost. Get the bats going and I’m confident our pitching will be on track to win and advance to World Series play. We can hold opponents down if we can score runs early.

I’d say Erin starts the game

I love the fact both of our starting pitchers this weekend went the distance. Overall the arms ought to be rested for all pitchers. Didn't see Georgia's games, so don't know how deep they had to go with their pitchers. From what I can see, they hit very well and their pitchers are pretty darn good too.

Crazy that of the 18 left, 9 of them are SEC teams.
For the Lady Vols to be ranked in the upper tier of the SEC this year is just phenomenal.

I agree with most others here.
In the end I think our gals pitching are a little better than theirs hitting, give the lady Vols the win and move on to WCWS.

 

[Volstylexx]

This is going to be a tough, tough matchup. We will need pitching to be on point, and bats to be on fire and then head to OKC!

Yeah I was just thinking about that. Nine out of 16 is amazing. I also just thought about how if Ole Miss hadn’t Ole Missed, it should have been 10.

I’m glad I’m not a longtime Ole Miss softball fan because I’m not sure I’d ever get over that game. I’m still not over Monica Abbott and how the best pitcher in the college game never won a WCWS because our teams couldn’t manage to get her any runs.

Poetry in motion.

Anybody have tickets they want to sell for Saturday game?

Model of consistency

Go LV's!

Beat Georgia!

I don't think so. I think Karlyn will pitch on Thursday and Saturday if necessary, with Sage pitching on Friday. We may not even see Erin, only if the other two can't get it done.
