The Official #3 Tennessee vs Virginia College World Series Game 1 Thread (SUNDAY AT 2PM EST)

[GoVolunteers]

Pitiful performance. Virginia comes into this series as probably the worst team still alive. Maybe I'm wrong.

There is a reason they are in the CWS and have an incredible baseball program.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Oh I’m thrilled with our season this year even if we get knocked out. I’m just saying we always lose when the big stage pulls up

Maybe but you gotta get to the stage first. We haven't been there in 16 years.

 

[casetopia]

need 2 runs an inning. go get it fellas!

 

[HollowaytoSeivers]

I’d rather go 2 and Q in the WS or lose by 20 in a national semifinal than lose in a SR or Elite 8.

That's why I asked...and fwiw, I agree with you.

 

[Switch 625]

I have never seen a team who watches more strikes than this team

They have been sleepwalking all day.

Legoooooooooooooo Petey!!!

Sorry guys I’m admittedly not super knowledgeable on CWS. So if we lose it’s still double elimination but do you have to “dig” your way out of the losers bracket? Like what is the benefit on being in the winners bracket? Thanks in advance for your patience.

35 of the last 39 champions won game 1. THeReS your answer

Crap!! I looked away and we've gotta guy down!

[Big Orange#1]

Injure ourselves swinging. That type of day

Tennessee sports in a nut shell. Good until it counts. Basketball first now the baseball team good lord

That means football is going to come to the rescue!!

So you're telling me TN will be the 5th team to do it?

 

[VolnJC]

Some of you all are 1 star fans...you just don't have what it takes to support a team without bashing or meltdowns...to those I say...take up hiking or gardening...those hobbies are undefeated for me

 

[Volstylexx]

Just curious, did you watch the pitching from the Columbia super regional?

 

[Orange931]

I’m gonna put a positive on this. This is the game we needed to make a run in the losers bracket....that’s all I got

 

[tnvols72]

I never thought we'd play like this today...never....

same here , they have been in every game , even when they lose

 

[BigDave]

ALRIGHT PAV!!

 

[OneVolNation]

Glad Pete Derkay is okay.

Boom!
GO BIG ORANGE!!

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Except Lipscomb.. We sleptwalk that day too

 

[vol94]

I feel for all the UT fans out there. I hate all VA teams living up here. Especially UVa and their 37 fans.

Yeah. I’ve posted before that I’m from Roanoke, VA and despise UVA and VA Tech. The smartest decision I made if my young life was transferring to UT in 92 and leaving VA.
Go Vols!

 

[OneVolNation]

Way to go, Pav!

 

[bigun771]

Got to take the bat off their shoulder. Virginia went out bombs away. We were watching the game from home plate

 

[OL SMOKEY]

Rally time

 

[GhostVol]

is the Super Regional not a big stage?

It is, but TN had the HUGE advantage of playing within the friendly confines of LNS
