Let’s front load the game thread with predictions.

I’ll take the dawgs 8-3

 

[birdawg]

I've been wrong on how nearly all State's and other's postseason games would play out this year. Normally have a decent feel.

That being said 8-6 horns.

 

[msudawg200]

5-2 Horns

 

[She Mate Me]

Overdue MSU 12
Overrated Texas 4

 

[Mobile Bay]

Do not taunt injuns. Do not drink Jobu's rum. Delete this.

 

[RocketDawg]

8-5 MSU.

 

[RocketDawg]

Haven't seen a complete view of the stadium, but it looks like pretty much a full house.

 

[57stratdawg]

Madden dealing to Rowdey.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Glad we're working the pitch count

 

[Drebin]

Giving away three at bats to start the game....that's a great sign. **

 

[57stratdawg]

That’s a pretty dominate 1st inning. There’s not really an adjustment to hit 97 up and in with a wipeout slider away.

 

[thatsbaseball]

That's a big crowd .

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Gautreau even have BP this week?

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

That’s as dominant of a 1st inning as I’ve ever seen***

 

[vandaldawg]

Enough with the ump cam.

 

[Drebin]

That’s a pretty dominate 1st inning. There’s not really an adjustment to hit 97 up and in with a wipeout slider away.

Sure there is. Eliminate the slider and hunt fastball. When you take fastballs for strikes or foul them off, that's when you make yourself susceptible to the slider. Make him throw strikes and hunt fastball strikes early in the count.

 

[thatsbaseball]

That's part of our plan...he'll be overconfident when the bottom of our order comes up and they'll smoke his *** **

 

[Apoplectic_Objurgator]

Great start by bednar - we’re better than these Austin effeminates. Execute and win this thing

 

[TrueMaroonGrind]

Haven't seen a complete view of the stadium, but it looks like pretty much a full house.

It is almost completely full. Very solid crowd.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

This game is going to be over with by 8:45

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Whatever it takes to get runners on base, I'll take it

 

[57stratdawg]

Can’t eliminate the slider if he’s locating it.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Bednar

feeling it!

Gonna be a duel.

 

[Drebin]

Can’t eliminate the slider if he’s locating it.

He's getting ahead with his fastball. See Hancock's at bat as a great example. Hancock takes two center-center fastballs for strikes and then jams himself on a weak grounder to second. And as I type this, Kellum Clark swings at a first pitch slider in the dirt. Our offensive approach sucks balls so far.

 

[AgronDawg]

It’s only the 3rd but both pitchers looking very good. How many runs to win this game?

 

[Ralph Cramden]

Madden starting to struggle. 4 to 1 Dawgs

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Getting better contact. I just hope Bednar can keep grinding out Ks.

 

[57stratdawg]

That might be the best 3 innings of a start we’ve seen this year from an opposing pitcher.

 

[Drebin]

That might be the best 3 innings of a start we’ve seen this year from an opposing pitcher.

You're giving him way too much credit. We've seen better and we've hit better.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

​It's time to get a rally started now, don't you think?

 

[Drebin]

Very good at bat by kam. He spit on two sliders and ended up drawing a walk. That's the recipe for getting to this guy.

 

[Jeffreauxdawg]

I just did an SPS search on the word effeminates. I just think it's a weird word and I feel like I have only ever seen it used on SPS. 7 results. All posted by you. I'm guessing if I did the same with the word beta, you would show up 90% of the time. What's your fascination with the masculinity of others?

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks." This is how I imagine you typing out effeminates..

[Drebin]

And then Hancock spits on the slider and drives the fastball for a hit. Now we're cooking.

 

[She Mate Me]

Revision...

Can't hit it MSU 2
Can't see it Texas 0

 

[Jeffreauxdawg]

Brandon Walker sighting.

 

[MSUDawg25]

Shrek sighting

 

[ZombieKissinger]

That Barstool money is flowing

 

[Ralph Cramden]

What did I say ? 2 zip and a man on 3rd

 

[Drebin]

Kellum Clark looks like a freshman. Chase, chase, chase.

 

[Ralph Cramden]

As he should...but even the announcer is calling slider in the dirt coming up. So he knows the pattern. Lay off it.
