How is UT's bullpen good to go? The "almighty" Austin Wood threw 42 yesterday, obviously Jungmann's done, Dicharry and Workman threw 30+ each. I suppose Shinaberry's going to magically dazzle us tomorrow, given the fact that he's only pitched nine innings this season.

UT is not in better shape than LSU as far as bullpen. Ranaudo needs to be vintage tomorrow.

Seriously, Coleman should have been pulled. This BS about not walking people and "only" giving up solo shots is idiotic. UT was driving pitches deep and they were on to Coleman's act. It was time for a pitching change in the 4th inning. Luckily CJ rolled in and mowed em down.

Augie also screwed his team...I understand pulling Ruffin for a situational lefty-lefty matchup with Wood against Mitchell, but Wood has been complete shite in the CWS, letting LSU back into the game just like he did with USM in the first game. And we obviously saw why Workman and his 97 mph fastball aren't a part of the weekend rotation for the Horns...absolutely no control.

Seriously...are they so etched in their gameplan of sending Ranaudo/Coleman out for 7-8 innings, and then bringing in Ott that they cannot deviate and pull Coleman in the 4th inning? There's a reason that nearly every UT hit/out was a deep fly ball...Coleman was locating his pitches exactly where each batter liked them, and was rattled. Incredible lack of confidence in the bullpen, Coleman should have been done in the 4th. Hopefully LSU can still win this thing, but the blame for any potential loss in this game has got to go on the retarded coaching moves.

Ditto. Gotta put UT in their place.

It was more of a reloading year, not to make anyone feel sorry for us. We just got snakebit with one of our freshmen pitchers needing Tommy John surgery before the season, then Berry and Ojala being out for six weeks. Both of those guys never had one of their "vintage" games after their injuries, and just didn't really impress me going into the regionals. We also need some guys in the bullpen to show up, as well as our starters to go 7+ innings like y'alls do. That's where you guys are better IMO. You have two excellent starters that are different in their pitching styles, but that can go 6-7 innings, then you have a setup man, and then (at least from today's performance) a lockdown closer in Ott. We just couldn't really count on having Berry or Ojala go for so long, and then our bullpen chumps all have location or mental issues haha.

Good luck on Friday/Saturday, and beat the f*ck out of Ole Miss/UVa (I can understand why y'all hate those Rebel fans; what the hell has Ole Miss ever done athletically?) and especially CSF.

F*ck you nasty coonasses.

Very accurate assessment of Rice tonight. Our bullpen blows and Rendon should be in the majors. Ho hum.

Yes, he's been like that all year. Been a f*cking liability. Ojala always throws his 12-6 curveball in the dirt, Diego just hasn't grasped the concept of dropping your knees and letting the ball bounce into your chest protector, instead of ricocheting off his knee pads. His defensive performance tonight was maybe a tad worse than usual, but no real Rice fans should have been surprised at his catching "performance" tonight.
