Tennessee - ECU is an interesting matchup.
Kentucky beating Wake wouldn't shock me... they have a much better winning % against Q1. 7-8 for UK - - 5-15 for Wake

ECU got 2 on but Tenn turned a double play to get out. Scoreless after 2.

The NCAA has a decent website for following the scores.

Tennessee-ECU has some quality pitches being thrown. When I checked in on Liberty-BC, the BC guy looked off kilter.

ETA: UT hits a homer as I type this.

Auburn down 4-0 after the top of the 1st.

Nope - Auburn is throwing their ace. Yikes! This is against the 2nd worst (RPI-based) team in the field. They are 238, the worst team is 239, I think. They are 6 games under .500 too. Can't imagine this holds, but DANG!

Milwaukee's record is 25-31. Surely Auburn won't lose against these guys, but the longer Milwaukee stays in the lead, the more Auburn will tighten up.

Wow. I’m sure Auburn will win. But that’s a disaster for their pitching going forward.
Yep, that's the rub. Even if they win, they're already in a bad spot. Ace is spent (may come back Sunday?), and Cormier is going to get spent against the 4 seed. Another pen arm is going to have to pitch some too.

I think today’s starter would probably come back Monday. Only threw 28 pitches (man they must have really been hitting him hard). But how comfortable are you bringing a guy back on 2 days rest who just got hit that hard by maybe the worst team in the tournament?
