This team just can't do anything easy

[preacher_dawg]

It has to take it to the brink of losing it all in order to win. Just win it tomorrow!!

My thoughts exactly. Did we expect anything other than another nail biter?

House money.

 

[o_dawgnabit]

Yep. And get ready for another nail biter tomorrow

It seems to be in their DNA. When we won the first game, in the back of my mind I thought no way in hell we can go 2-0. That’s just not who this team is. There’s nothing wrong with that; it’s just who they are for some reason. But that does give me hope that they can pull it out tomorrow. They seem to thrive in these do or die situations.

I’d recommend settling in because it’s going to be a dogfight and and bumpy ride tonight. It will end in complete elation or complete disgust. No in between.

Or....... Vandy will score early and often and leave no doubt.***

Like I said before, we need to score at least 8 runs and in a hurry to hopefully break their spirit. If they get a lead in the sixt, and trot Shaller and Day our to the mound, this thing is over.

I sure hope they have more energy than I do today.

I'm sure it's the Miss Stake negativity but I see no way we win tonight, I think we'll probably get hammered pretty well

I've enjoyed the ride but Omaha, I think, was a little much to ask

Luck and some hot play got us to a Super, but at this point it's been a great season, look forward to a new beginning next season with a lot of these same players

We went 15-15 in the stronger half of by far the strongest conference in the country. It’s nit exactly a fluke we’re here. You say it took luck to win the FSU game. I say it took great pitching & clutch hitting.

 

[Len2003]

Yeah, I don’t think it’s a fluke either. 9/10 we’re a good offensive team. Our bullpen is inconsistent. Not bad but inconsistent. I don’t think you can win OM, AK, and FL series on a fluke. We’re evenly matched with Vandy from what I can tell. These deep post-season runs are about getting hot and some lucky breaks. Unless you are just hands down dominant like Oregon State appears to be, you got here by some luck. Vandy has made just as many boneheaded moves and stranded just as many runners than us. They are not a dominant, elite team by any means and also lost some puzzling midweek games along the way. Got bounced by Texas A&M in Hoover game. Doesn’t mean we will win, but Vandy shouldn’t scare anyone.

 

[maroonmania]

Hopefully we still pull it out but it feels like an uphill battle. Sad part is, without ongoing construction, we probably have this SR at home and I think we would have won in 2 straight had we played Vandy in Starkville.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

I can assure you our boys aren't scared of Vandy.

 

[Len2003]

Oh I agree, and I love that about this team. They give zero effs and believe they cab beat anyone. I was just generally saying no one should be scared of Vandy.

 

[HammerOfTheDogs]

They know they're playing with House Money.
