NCAA CWS 2024

Both teams pitching and defense has been solid (TAM pitching maybe more so). Vols need to keep scoring with hits up and down lineup. Dont get into situations score wise hoping for a HR to tie or take lead its a big park and the ball hasnt been flying out left and right all tournament. I think offensively VOLS have the advantage and dont think TAM can keep up.

We have been getting crucial 2-out hits that have been the difference in several of our games. And lot of that comes from being solid top-to-bottom in the lineup.

Why not Friday, Saturday and Sunday?!?

I wondered the same thing.

It could be A) to give the teams an extra day so they can be close to full strength as far as pitching; or more like B) ESPN wants to use that time slot for a crucial WNBA game !

Why not Friday, Saturday and Sunday?!?

Not sure the reasoning but football, basketball and baseball (final game, if needed) ncaa national championships are all played on Mondays

Hope the good guys wrap it up on Sunday though!

if Florida had beaten A&M Wednesday night they would have played another game on Thursday. I assume they wanted at least one guaranteed rest day between the last DE game and the start of the final series.

14 of Tennessee's 24 runs have been after 2 outs.

One thing I have noticed, but can't guarantee is that there seems to be more infield bobbles in college ball. It could be that the ball comes off the metal/composite bat a lot faster. You would think that would lead to more double plays, but it doesn't really from what I see.

It could also mean that I'm used to watching a lot better infield play in the pros.

Their mascot should be a house cat instead of a dog.

I think the in the metal bats are definitely a part of it. For the Vols I think there's also a transition from our turf at LNS and the grass & dirt in Omaha. It was definitely an issue for us in game 1

The epitome of cringe.

You have to be low test and high estrogen to even consider that.

I'd imagine weeknight ratings are better than weekend ratings in the summer as well

That is so gay…I could see TayTay doing the same moves at one of her shows…it's embarrassing.

I'm ready for tomorrow's game. Team stats, more similar in more ways than I expected.
