The Official Tennessee vs Texas College World Series Elimination Game Thread Tuesday 2PM Eastern

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Time to start the bus ..... get it warmed up ..... back to K-Town.

 

[NO SIR EEE]

That sinking feeling is starting to creep in that it wasn’t meant to be

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I guess we'll find out rather quickly if our hearts are getting broken twice this week. I have faith Vitello wants to be here. Really hope he proves that to be true.

 

[chef3531]

That’s not how it works, and you know it.

Ok Nostradamus

 

[mccrackb]

This team still gave us a ride all spring and summer. I am proud of this team. But this was just too big of a stage for them

Too big of a ballpark

 

[Horn w/ a Vol]

Not over yet. Y'all have the batters.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

I thought we really would come out today & rally to show that we do belong here playing.

It is getting a little late now for any kind of comeback kid action.

 

[tnvols72]

Assuming we don’t score another 4 runs, the first call Danny White has to make is a big fat contract to TV, right?

should have already been made , maybe just waiting until the season is over to announce. I hope

 

[1985Vols]

Looks like we sent the boys, not Daddies. A homer in either game makes this field smaller, didn't happen so far and we've played behind too much[/QUOTE
Our power is a little deceiving. Lindsay Nelson is like a high school field compared to TDI. A lot of home runs hit at LN would not have been HR’s at other stadiums

 

[taylorvol]

Let’s hope no recruits read the negavol posts calling out players and quitting on an incredible team.

 

[JCP201]

Vitello led the Vols to Omaha in his 4th yr. Just for comparison purposes, it took Skip Bertman & Tim Corbin 8 years to there. And it arguably much tougher today than it was in the 1980s and even early 2000s.

Probably would have went last year if the season hadn't been cancelled. Just hope we can keep him.

All of you saying the stage was too big sound like parrots. Crazy things happen in baseball. The team is not thinking about any "stage"; they are just playing. It doesn't look good, but losing is not an indication of choking.

Its hard to play Tx, umps and the liability Pav. I hate to get on him but its facts

He did say at one point that he would like to build his own brand , but the silence lately doesn't help with all the questions.

We belong here, and we earned this trip. We just didn't show it this week. It's really frustrating, but it happens. I was hoping we could win at least one game, but it wasn't meant to be.

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

One thing is for sure, if TV stays, this won’t be the last time we see the Vols in the CWS

We’ve failed miserably with runners in scoring position. It’s been depressing to watch but like you said it happens

6 more outs before we can say that

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

We had our chances early today ..... just could not make it happen for whatever reason.

 

[Creeker]

Well this was a let down. Tennessee sports gonna Tennessee. Moment was too big for TV and the BaseVols.

look I was trying to find the problem lol

 

[casetopia]

guess we were the ugliest girl at the beauty pageant.

 

[GhostVol]

I still don't think that plate to 1st DP was right.

But TN wasn't gonna get that call even with a replay

 

[tnvols72]

Too big of a ballpark

that to not 1 ball I seen was ever deep

Call already made. The offer is on the table. And its HUGE.
