[87&91ALUM]

After the droughts we have had, I appreciate the rain on my garden. But, dang the weather delays this year.

 

[Volprofch05]

Delayed due to children’s’ orchestra concert

 

[87&91ALUM]

For those of you venturing to Fayetteville Arkansas this weekend, weather forecast appears sunny/good until Sunday.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Any word on how long the weather delay is

Rule: Play cannot resume until 30 minutes after the last lightning strike within the 8-mile radius.

 

[VolGirl81]

More importantly today, Pete Rose is reinstated!

I know the rule. I'm wondering when it is

Morgantown regional, Texas would be our super regional opponent for those who didn’t want to click

At the start of the season, all these teams with losses were projected to have such high seeds, and the reason given was that while they had losses, they had a hard strength of schedule and they were "good" losses.

Now, as we lose to Vandy, LSU, etc. - all "good" - losing to good teams doesn't matter, and we drop down the boards.

In the end, it doesn't matter. Got to beat who you play, wherever you play them, But, I have watched it happen this year, and found it interesting.

As well he should be in my opinion

What's the minimum number of innings completed for us to get a huge win number 40 today in a game called for weather?

I'm thinking 5 complete, home team 4.5 if ahead.

I think they've given us a lot more grace than we should expect honestly. We were a 9 seed going into Vandy series. The reality is we've lost 5/6 series and are 19-19 since the 20-0 start. It's funny saying this, but if we weren't Tennessee, or some other school that's earned benefit of the doubt, we wouldn't even be ranked right now.

I get your point, but we are 19-13, not 19-19 over the balance of the season.

I’m 3 miles east of LNS, rain has stopped.

we started 20-0, now we're 39-19. That = 19-19.. unless I'm missing something

edit: I had the record wrong, oops

It's wing time! Let's go

Wilkerson: The reason for tonight's early start was to allow Tennessee to leave an hour earlier for Arkansas.
