O'Sullivan's post game comments rub me the wrong way. Not that he said anything wrong, dude is just a confident coach who competes in every aspect of the game, post game messaging included. Today will be a mental battle with weather delays expected

It’s a shame they hate each other so much now. I loved that song!

Sara Smile and Maneater are my tops from them.

I student taught there MANY years ago and assisted with basketball. Even then, they had established quite the program. I coached with Yogi somebody, can’t remember his name. Almost stayed there but chose grad school instead.

It was Yogi Berra, I think. Pretty sure, yes.

 

[cardvolfan]

This ump called for a check swing to 3rd base on a right hand hitter

We saw that and everyone was like……what? Did that umpire just do that? Thanks for the confirmation that the HP umpire was absolutely terrible.

Good one

FYI

Up Next

The Vols will look to claim a series win when they square off with the Gators in game two on Saturday afternoon. First pitch for Saturday's contest, which was originally scheduled for 6 p.m., has been moved up to 3:30 p.m. due to expected inclement weather in the area.

Fans can watch the start of Saturday's game on SEC Network+ and the ESPN app before it moves over to the SEC Network around 4 p.m.

Probably modeling the attitude he wants his team to assume for the rest of the series. Might even be trying to evoke any "vociferous spirits" still floating around LNS from the 2022 Vols.

I like that after a game that close statistically, he feels he needs to gain an emotional edge to get a win.

A great win against an all SEC-type pitcher. Snead saved the day as we rolled thru our bullpen without success. Manny Marin is the real deal. Let’s see Stone Lawless catching today as we need his big bat. Jay Abernathy is a stud who consistently gets bat-to-ball. Speed kills.

Yes, we need our catcher, whoever it is be more capable with the bat.

Not hating on anyone. But we have three kids in our lineup that have not proved they can handle above average fb in two years. I am not being negative but at some point talent has to overtake experience.

I did not know they split for good... sad. Saw them in LV about 9 years ago

Yeah, I'm having trouble foreseeing 3:30 EDT game conditions from this radar screen...


...but the hourly forecast still has the rain out by 2:00pm.

I see a lot of posts talking about a series win today. Forget that. We're the defending NC. I want to set the tone for the remainder of the season early with a of top tier team.

 

[chuckiepoo]

That system is moving north, not east.

 

[cardvolfan]

Locally, WBIR has a nice safety net between 1:45 and 7 tonight. Hopefully that projection stays intact.

Agree with all of this.
