The rest of your post operates on the assumption I believe this. Which is absolutely incorrect. So I'm not sure where to go from here. I believe our coach made a mistake and deserves some scrutiny for it once our season concludes-if not right now.

Why would you start Lange again?
TCU is 5th in stolen bases, lefty's help negate that.
Poche has been on fire his last two starts.
Regardless of when Lange pitches, he isn't' pitching again until the championship series. Poche can pitch twice in the first go round, and again in the championship series.

Lange doesn't mean automatic win. We saw this with Nola 2 years ago going 8 innings and giving up 2 runs, yet we lose to UCLA b/c we can't hit. Doesn't matter if your ace goes up there and pitches 8 innings and gives up a run or two, if you can't hit and score runs on offense, doesn't really matter who's pitching.
