The end of that game was completely loving bonkers. A gimpy leg PH hammering a dinger in the top of the 9th to tie it for ULL, and LSU coming right back in the bottom with a shot to almost the same place.

All of this in driving rain in a packed stadium. Criminy.

Other than the rain, today looks to be more of the same!

How are Illinois' chances against Vanderbilt? This is the first time I've ever paid attention to college baseball and it's only because it's Illinois' best team in history.

We won the NC last year and htis year our team is even better. Our best hitter is going to be #1 overall in the draft right as our game 2 ends today. :smug:

Oh and we have an Ace pitcher who could be playing in the majors right loving now. That's the guy Illinois players were saying "wasn't any better than the pitchers they saw" earlier this season. :laugh: I understand wanting to show confidence, but maybe not say "lol he's not so great" after getting shut out. Our second best pitcher is a loving beast too.

We seriously are going to lose at minimum 3 players to the first round alone in the draft today.

EDIT: Granted, Fulmer was off his game last night, but lol Fulmer's bad games he's shutting out a great team like Illinois.

That was an insane play. Bases full of Frogs, line drive, Aggy pitcher gets drilled in the chest -- and he recovered to throw home for the force. This game owns.

So CWS field set, and it's a solid one: first-round games will be Virginia-Arkansas and Florida-Miami on one side, LSU-TCU and Vandy-Fullerton on the other.

Would expect an all-SEC final series of Florida vs. Vandy or LSU, though there's a lot of good arms especially on the latter half of the bracket.

Yes. This bracket helps:

If you win your first two games, you're at a pretty big advantage going into that semi-final game(s).

I was so excited to finally check that box.

We've had lots of letdowns--finals against Texas (L), that 1998 Andy Lopez team w/ Brad Wilkerson going 0-2-BBQ as a 1 seed (including a 14-13 loss to Miss St).

Virginia-Arkansas just started. UVA is wearing their loving stupid camo jerseys.

edit: 3-3 after 5. Been back and forth, lots of mistakes in the game so it doesn't really feel like a classic but fun so far. Each side has a homer so far, which is nice after nobody could seem to even get it out of the infield last year.

UVA takes it 5-3, gritty game. Arkansas had runners on all game but couldn't cash them in—Benintendi was as good as advertised but got no help. UVA stole a bunch of bases too, which is weird, they haven't done that all year.

Florida-Miami next at 8 eastern.

Ehh--we weren't particularly sharp last night, and hitting was super-streaky.

I could see a pitcher w/ command shutting us down if we don't come out loose.

Our D put us in tight positions last night, but bailed us out early. We definitely capitalized with RISP.

Happy with it overall, but I worry about our luck running out.
