We’re probably not going to win today, but we aren’t out of the tournament. We’ve had a real good season, got a great team, a great coach, great fans, along with a lot of negavols. Regardless of what happens this game or the rest of the tournament Tennessee fans should be proud of this team and not turn on them because they aren’t playing well today. Give Virginia credit, they are a little better today and their starting pitcher was phenomena.

Good pitching beats good hitting every time…..VA pitching has been dominate.

 

[MAD]

Never count out these Vols, just gonna have to fight it out in the losers bracket.

 

[Catbone]

Doesn't look like a tennessee team. Everything is off

 

[TN_gal]

So it goes without saying....a rough day for our guys.

They will still battle until the final out.

I'm not giving up on this team.

Way to go, Walsh!

Abbott pitched a hell of a game and Tennessee is playing with house money in Omaha.

Now let's score 6 in the bot of 8th!!️️

At least 4-5 to make it interesting

Game has gotten so bad they radio play by play guys are talking about a renegade raccoon in the press box.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Hopefully we get Mississippi state

 

[LordVOLdemort]

Not surprised that vols are the reason I lose this bet. Usually is the reason.

It’s your fault, never bet on the Vols. Bad luck. Ball board is fine, straight bet, NO

 

[rocketskates]

Less games played = less pitchers used
Less pitchers used = better arms available
Better arms available = greater likelihood of winning

Got it. So if you are in the losers bracket you have to play more games en route to the final? Thanks!

Oregon State ( 2018) and South Carolina (2010) were the last teams to lose first game and win CWS.

 

[AthensVol2007]

Goodness, you guys are like teen girls with all the drama.
Woah is me, the lights are too big. It's a Tennessee thing.
How about we give Abbott some credit. That kid was lights out on the bump today.

And we helped him by swinging at balls at our eyes. He’s a 65% fastball pitcher, we should’ve been aggressive from the get go. The pitch count approach didn’t pay off at all.

Legoooooooooooooo!!!!

Guess I'll need to book a 3 hour meeting Tuesday.

I have to work until 7. Guess I will make a lot of golfers mad yelling.

 

[BigDave]

Regardless of what happens the rest of this game, I am DAMN proud of this team!!!!! We still have games to play . . . And I said it's great to be a Tennessee VOL!!!

 

[VolMarine1371]

If I had to put money on a team that could do that, it would be this one.

Dallas didnt throw a lot of pitches today and a Hunley didn’t either. With the games not being back to back I think this team could do it if they are in the losers bracket. But we not done with this one yet.

 

[backdoorcutvol]

Why is this happening? Good grief, I knew UVA had a good shot at winning this game, but not being able to get a run off this team is just embarrassing.

They got a good shot at winning CWS

 

[GoVolunteers]

I am still very proud of this team!!!
