Started one of these after game 1 loss to USC. Let’s do it again! We are the better team. Go win 2 in a row.

Throw the kitchen sink at them tomorrow and get to G3. You never know from there.
We have Lynch going and have responded all season no reason to expect anything different. DeCaro didn’t have his best today it happens but if we have a good pitcher going tomorrow and a great chance to get to a winner take all game
Fresh Globe for tomorrow. I like our chances
Decaro was t bad today. He’s going up against an offense that’s seeing softballs at the plate. 6 of 9 runs were with 2 outs and either a 1-2 or 2-2 counts.
Let's go! We never lost game 1 of the finals and come back to win it all let's make some history!
No one beats us like that twice!
Gotta stick behind your team when they’re down.
Teams that lose Game 1 and win Game 2 have won Game 3 (and the title) 8 of 11 times that scenario has happened.
Losers of Game 1 have won 8 of the 22 titles since 2003.
This is not like the supers where Game 1 is a massive advantage (>80% of G1 winners win the series).

Was it over when the Germans bombed Peal Harbour?
Disappointing day today, BUT really like this team with their backs against the wall. They will come out fighting tomorrow. Go Heels!
He wasn’t his best but completely right in that I don’t think we played a really good “bad” game. Tip your cap to OU and bounce back
FLUSH it boyz ... you've been here before this season ... just re-focus, re-commit and get that W
BELIEVE
GO HEELS

Which is basically 1/3. Winner of Game 1 wins 2/3 of the time. Make perfect sense, they have 2 chances to get 1, and we have to win both. As you say, no bonus advantage.
We always had to win 2, now we just know which 2.
My daughter who starts kindergarten in August just read Green Eggs and Ham to me by herself
Anyone making fun of 18-22 year olds from their couches are the real losers lol
For sure. Not scoring after the first inning won't cut it. Especially need improvement from 5-9
It's actually amazing how perfectly this works out to evenly matched teams playing a best 2-of-3. Seems like the NCAA baseball tourney format works.
Y’all can talk about pitching all you want to, and while I don’t disagree that it has to be great…we need to score 8+ runs to get to a game 3. We need a WV game 2 offense from here on out to beat Oklahoma and win the title.
I would love to know who decided to throw a 3rd elevated fastball and not a breaking ball. Sports is so much about momentum, perhaps without that 2nd home run OU isn’t as hot and our bats stay consistent.
Well you know I’m going to post here! While the score looks ugly, that drop by Colin changed the game IMO. It should have been an easy out. We had way too many uncharacteristic defensive errors, which I don’t see happening again. Having Ryan and Caden fresh is huge. My biggest concern is the bottom of the lineup not producing. I think they will though, and we will win it all on Monday.
Win tomorrow and all arms on deck! Not worried but damn OU is hit af
Yeah, uncharacteristic is right. Expect the team to get back to playing their game tomorrow.
Same thing happened against USC. A little rattled after a bad inning, then rattled off two days of disciplined, mistake-free baseball.
This is what I’m talking about! I genuinely feel the same way I did after game one against USC. They might not have been as hot as Oklahoma is, but they were close. I think they scored 55 runs over four games. We absolutely can win this thing.
That pitch didn’t lose the baseball game, and it’s not a bad pitch. Dude hit 95 at his neck.
Best case is having Lynch throw 6-7 solid innings, Rose finishes up, and then Caden can start on Monday. Of course, we need to score more than 3 runs.
The dropped foul tip was huge, but if we score 4+ in the first, it's a different game. We had their starter on the ropes, and another hit might have knocked him out of the game.

So you completely ignored my comment about momentum and focused your comment on the assumption I blamed the game on that pitch.
Got it
Either Forbes or Gaines. Guys that know more than all of us.
Story of this season says we got them right where we want them.
