Blue must be a candy boy. That was strike three looking.

So for those asking about being the home team… so if both teams were home yesterday the higher seed would be home today, if one team was home and the other was away then the team that was away will be home.. going forward it goes by how many times a team has been the home team and if it’s a tie it goes to the higher sees

Wow Vandy goes down

 

[Christian Lowe]

Wow Texas goes down

 

[kptvol1]

Wright State…isn’t that who we walked off with a grand slam a few years ago? They’re good at post season, aren’t they?

 

[vol_smoothie]

Rumor has it, that the team hasn’t practiced fielding all year, offseason included. Lifting/conditioning was optional as well, I’m told. Tony decided they’d do nothing but have team- wide home run derby’s every day. If it’s raining they go inside and have tournament style competitions on MLB ‘25 on PlayStation.

Very funny

Vandy to the losers bracket

And it took an umpire reversal for them to win game 1

Tennessee hasn’t lost a Regional game since 2019.

I remember when we would’ve been happy just to make it to Hoover.

Didn’t we lose to Evansville or someone last year?

 

[ThreatLevelOrange]

Dammit. Let AJ finish it.

I hate that we burned him tonight instead of starting him tomorrow. And now I hate that we’re going to burn another arm instead of letting him finish it.

Snead is our closer.

 

[ThreatLevelOrange]

Do we have anyone on the roster that can catch it and throw it to first base? Man defense at the shortstop position has killed us this year. That’s our weak link. I bet TV is trying to find us an upgrade there. Go Vols. Finish this thing.

Not SS, 2B. So maybe “defense at middle infield.”

 

[NighthawkVol]

Snead is our closer.

Random. But okay.

 

[NighthawkVol]

Didn’t we lose to Evansville or someone last year?

That was in the super regional.

 

[preacherman20]

Serious question --- do you really think/believe that Coaches are beyond criticism/critique?

Not National Championship coaches from guys who have never coached anything at that level.

 

[OrangeAllDay]

That was in the super regional.

Chapel Hill regional was 2019 right? So we haven’t lost a regional game since then?? That’s pretty wild

 

[theroyz71]

Why is he trying to bunt with 2 outs lol. GBO great game minus the errors

Weren't we in a shift with nobody covering 3rd at the time?

 

[theroyz71]

Hey now, I was the "get back" coach on my kids' peewee football teams.

 

[theroyz71]

WVU leading Clempson 9-5 in B9. Hope I don’t jinx them
I wonder, though- how did Clempson get to be home team in the winners bracket game if they were home team last night?
Vols had to be visitors in today’s game.
Do they flip a coin or what’s the rule?

Because WVU was the home team in their first round game. Cincinnati was the visitor against WF.

Will Heflin on post-game show...IYKYK.

I need to give him a listen.
