That the cfp committe was breathing a sigh of relief as Burrow and LSU proceeded to beat the brakes off UCF after spotting them a big lead.
My favorite that I was there for has to be the Burrow to Chase TD pass down the sidelines in the 2019 Florida game. It was a thing of beauty and the stadium absolutely erupted.

Pyburn stated at one point is here because he wants to be an every down player all of these guys are gonna get significant time all season and I would expect a lot of rotation especially game 1 where players are settling back into game speed
Really hard to beat that Wake Forest game IMO. The buildup alone could have crushed one or both teams mentally. 2 bona fide mlb ready pitchers with excellent defensive heroics by both teams. Mentally tough future big leaguers and great college players all over the field that day. All the way up to the finish it didn't look like either team would flinch.
The media was doing everything they could to make them the media darling underdog that the whole country was behind. It made CC's shtick of "us vs the world" and aggressive demeanor seem really forced.

Hell the announcers by talking about the umps being too quick in the ejection gave the coach every opportunity to come out "own it" and truly look like a victim of the moment.

At every opportunity CC and particularly their coach were deliberately assholes when they could have leaned into a completely different storyline that the media was trying so hard allow them to fit.

The real question is does the 2025 team "Pitch off" against Skenes.
Sat near him during softball game a few years back that I brought my niece to. He was a little too much for me and just seemed to be making the effort to be the center of attention vs simply a crazy superfan. My niece loved him though so overall I think he's a net positive as much as I wish he wasn't.

Bold strategy it's frickin hot
A lot went right for them yesterday and they still lost.

If it was just kade shutting them down they would probably feel better since he can only pitch one game but it was the whole defense that absolutely shut down their small ball strategy.

In moments they were used to being able to manufacture runs seemingly at will they consistently got stuffed.

Well I guess LSU keeps Beth Torina for another 20 years then with your logic. She's a winner just not NC winning material.


fricking insufferable people.

It's hard to win at any level of any sport. It's not some video game that if you hit the buttons just right you will win. shite goes wrong sometimes and the right moves sometimes dont workout.

Enjoy the win, take it in, we could have a better team next year and not even make it to omaha. When you play the best the path to wins is narrow, unforgiving, and anything but guaranteed.

Heading up Friday after work.

Not missing an opportunity to see LSU hoist the trophy. Who else?

what’s the thought process here to call this play?


Definitely not a guru but, with the way they were hitting to the infield and a force out at every base they probably felt that getting someone across with a hit was just too low percentage. Couple that with feeling the pressure to manufacture something with what they had done that inning and you get a weird call. Seems like trying to get the walk would be higher percentage though especially with root at that moment seemingly feeling the pressure.

If it had worked it would have looked like a genius move I guess. Huge backfire in that I think they really showed just how scared they were in that moment and Arkansas seized momentum after that.
Yep. If he keeps it up like this we won't make it to omaha.

Nope. They keep cutting to it during pitches on the main channel. I know it's been a thing for a while but they have been cutting to it damn near every other pitch. It's disorienting.
