Your Arkansas Razorbacks will take on the Stanford Trees at 1:00 Central on ESPN this Saturday. By the way, the best baseball team in the history of baseball will not be in attendance at the CWS. That team shit the bed and will be in Knoxville nursing their vaginas. From the looks of it, we will be served a never ending string of left handed pitchers. That means we will need some good, long at bats. Stanford did beat us early this season, before we gelled and figured out who we were. We have faced the #7 seed, the #10 seed, and now the #2 seed, also the highest seed left, since the Knoxville asses didn’t make it. Here’s hoping our bats are still awake, our starters go at least 5-6 innings, and our fielding stays great. So, let’s prune the trees and head to the finals. As usual, GO HOGS! Oh, and here is their stupid mascot.

Concentrating on sending positive vibes for the entire week. Focusing on big game Bob.

Here's who needs to wake up for the CWS...as we all know....Robert Moore.

In the NCAAT, he is 3 for 21 with 4 RBIs, 3 Ks, 3 walks, and one HBP. And two of the 3 hits were home runs in the 20-12 OSU game 1.

In his last 4 games, he's 1-15 with 3 Ks and 1 walk. This dude needs some Derek Ruscin treatment.

One of the last games of the regular season in the postgame he said, "we will shake a lot of heads." Although I believe he didn't intend it word it like thar, he has certainly shook a lot of heads.

Our "weak schedule" went a long way towards costing us a chance to at least host a regional.

There is a very real possibility that we could play in the championship round in Omaha, with every team we face during the CWS being a team we played at least once during the year.

RPI can eat a dick.

Weak SEC West was the narrative this year. No dominate teams. Turns out there was probably 3 or 4.

Our bracket in Omaha on bottom

So if Oregon wins, we could also end up playing the #3 seed. Brutal.

Please tell me that Perry Castillo will NOT be working in Omaha

So we have faced #7 and #10 and now will face #2 it seems.

We owe those west coast Ivy League wannabes from earlier in the year anyway.

If the Hogs make the championship series then I may fly up for the event.

The Hogs will be in the Championship Series, so, make your plans. They are HOT right now, and, no team on their side of the bracket can beat them twice.

Don’t worry about that. The Tiger/Plainsmen/War Eagles just took them down up in Corvallis. Allow me to say BWAHAHAHAHA to that.

So 6/8 teams in the CWS are either in the SEC or going to be soon…SEC had a down year.

4 from the SEC west.

4 teams in, who don't include the team that won it last year, and 2 of the other teams in will be in the SEC West in a few years

There was a discussion on SEC Rant last night about why Gregory shouldn't be in the lineup. The usual "he gets on base!" was tossed out, and someone posted his splits for NCAA tournament games to dispel that notion. Lots of awful on here, but it also shows how bad Moore has been as well.

No errors???

9th inning Game 2 against OSU wasn’t an error?

Maybe if we win the whole thing, we can get in the top 10. That would be awesome.

DirkPiggler · « **Reply #44 on:** June 14, 2022, 08:20:48 AM »

For context, RPI rankings as of today.

2. Stanford
4. Notre Dame
5. Auburn
6. Oklahoma
7. Texas
8. Texas A&M
19. Ole Miss
20. Arkansas

Fuck Stanford. Their ace got shelled by UConn. Looks like they just ride two guys out of the pen. Each threw a bunch in games 2 and 3.

Technically, no. It was scored a hit since he fell down and didn't touch the ball.

Son_of_Spam · « **Reply #49 on:** June 14, 2022, 09:53:21 AM »

Gregory is a guaranteed out against a lefty. Unless he is HBP or walks. I hate that he usually comes up with the base loaded and two outs with a lefty pitching. If we have a runner at first and no outs, he is a pretty good bunter. But that is about it.
