Iowa did pretty good to get 7 out of Brecht, but once the Sickos got to the bullpen, the bats showed up.
Several games getting weather delays.....but I see Indiana beat the KY wildcat kernels.

Gotta believe the Kitties aren't done. They will probably beat WV, and likely force a 2nd game. What sucks is Ball State wasn't even remotely the best team in the MAC. But Kent State coughed on its own shoes with a 44 RPI ... no respect, no strength of schedule. And I am seeing teams get mercy-ruled in this tournament.

Iowa is like the woman who hangs around the bar at 3 a.m. You can score on her.

'Teeper, those dayz have changed!
You'd have thought that Brisol, CT would've conjured up a Midwestern play-by play DUDE for the TH Regional. He played for IA, has a NE 'Hood voice, and only knows what Wiki tells him. The real show is how he stumbles thru his monologue, and his partner echoes the ol' HS dayz. Barf...

Looks like TH could get the Fayetteville Super Regional if 1) ISU wins 2) TCU continues their plastering of AR. Last I saw, 14-1 in the 3rd...

The TCU/Arkansas game is not an elimination game as it was delayed from yesterday, but they will have to advance from the losers bracket. Odds are you are still correct. Stats show there is only a 20% chance of claiming a Regional from the losers bracket.
Would love to see the Trees host again...we will send PomPom Mom up to Terradise as a symbol of our support.

Iowee got lucky in that 2nd inning with only 1 run. Miller needs to tool it in a little. I don't think the Trees can lose this if they just keep pounding.

I went up for the Aces/Trees game last week and observed how good the Sycs were at leaning into pitches and taking the HBP. Looks like they used that strategy to perfection tonight. Glad they are winning, but umpires need to deny the HBP if they are leaning into pitches and not attempting to avoid getting hit.

Glad they are winning, but umpires need to deny the HBP if they are leaning into pitches and not attempting to avoid getting hit. I'd say they got away with 2 of them, possibly 3. They did call one back. But the Trees did everything they could to keep this close. Iowa was lucky it wasn't a 20-run rule. The problem with these games is that there are pitchers who don't get enough innings. The one guy Iowa brought in had thrown 5 innings all season and you know it wasn't in a weekend series. You have that and the games get longer and longer. These guys were worn to a frazzle. That 8th inning, Pottinger was out stealing, he landed 5 feet from the bag when the throw arrived. Lord knows what it would have resembled if if went another day. There are scores in these regionals that are a bleeding joke. I am not surprised UK thumped up on the Hoozies. Lots of "really superior" SEC teams are gonna watch on ESPN, just like us. Hate it when Vandy loses, he laughed.

Nice sales job on Iowa by ISU outfielder. He had them sold and contracted until he had to produce the ball ...oops.
