His play was no worse than Aloy’s. Not sure what he was thinking there not getting the double play.

Ha. It was far worse. An error that Allowed 2 runs to score and put the winning run at 2B. Aloy at least got an out albeit with a big mental whiff but zero runs scored

Agree to disagree. More than once, I’ve seen it called on replay. It obviously wasn’t an issue on that play but even KP said they had to try it.

Yeah it’s called if you slide outside the bag or make intentional/excessive contact. That slide was about as straight on as it could’ve been. I just don’t see the need to use a challenge on a call you have no shot of changing. I’d rather eat knowing I had it in case something more controversial came up. There’s no right or wrong decision on challenges, I’m just not using it in that situation, feels like your grasping.

That’s how I felt a few years ago. Still feel that way. However, the LSU and Arky folks know how to fan. We need to get there somehow, I don’t have the answer. Needs to get figured out.

GBO!!!

What I will never forget is Arky-affiliated announcer Troy Eklund.

The jealous and unprofessional (even slanderous) announcer who spread a rumor on national TV in 2022 that we had a player out for steroid use and that they may test our entire team. All 100% false. But he wanted it to be true.

And the Arkansas fan base ate it up. They almost crashed Twitter reposting it and gloating in a mania, showing complete lack of respect for the game of baseball. May the Arky choke last 100 years.

I’m listening to Razorback radio who were classless after the TN game. They were roasting Fischer for his antics while giving Root a complete pass. They are saying “we know we’re the best team here” in Omaha. They are also saying “if not now, then WHEN?” I am enjoying it.

If they were “the best team” there, they wouldn’t have lost 4-1 in game 1. And they sure as hell wouldn’t have choked tonight. They have a TON of talent, but if they can’t put it together when it matters… then it doesn’t matter. They’re not even the 2nd best team in Omaha.

But if he’d gone for the double play it would’ve ended the game and Arkansas would’ve won, correct?

What a game. The Hogs choked it away in the 9th. Been a miserable watch on my end. Had one hell of a storm blow through here starting in the 1st. Haven’t had power since the game started. Just trying to find a spot where I could connect with my phone has been unreal. The only way I could watch is hanging out of my back door with my phone at a precise angle. Kept thinking I was gonna get struck by lightning! It was worth it though!!

Maybe…I’m talking specifically about home game atmosphere. That’s all. We need to work on it.

We do. We need the baseball savvy to lead the way at home and to model, for example, when to make noise. When to stand and cheer for someone coming out of the game. Etc. Whatever appears lacking. Be the example. I think it will happen.

When I attended I already knew how to cheer. It should be pretty self explanatory, but then again, I had been hanging with you guys. Our (small) road crowd was great. I suppose DW needs to figure out how to get the students nearer the action. Whatever it takes. Tell the other fans that the pitcher is the defense, so make noise. They outta understand that!

As far as all the asshats who show up in our forum here, they do the same thing in football and basketball too. I already had half of then on ignore. And quickly added the other half.

I’m glad this is a safe space cause everywhere else people are talking about how bad they feel for them. Well I don’t. Not one bit. Their fans are horrible and deserve every ounce of the bad karma.

Amen, sister.

The announcers told the viewers repeatedly literally that they had to feel sorry for them. So many people overwrite their sense and obey the television.
