Big softball game at 2:00 central!

[PalsPal]

Time to slay another college sport juggernaut!

 

[Bamamonts]

2 great teams. It should be a great game.

 

[PalsPal]

We're not starting Rogers. Pickens, the freshman, gets the start.

Interesting choice by Weekly.

My brother and his wife & daughter are there. My neice plays on a travel team and played a tourney there.

They are picking OK, apparently they are a juggernaut of a team. If OK wins this, they will have won 50 straight. I told them TN might end that streak. I hope it's a good game.

About to get run rule'd

Oklahoma is doing Oklahoma things. They're definitely THE top tier softball team. Incredible watching them play.

Started wrong pitcher

 

[wayne]

Oklahoma is the Georgia Bulldogs of softball.

 

[PalsPal]

Started mowing the yard when they hit the 3 run homer. Knew it was over.

Be tough to bounce back from this.

Will play OK St Sunday at 6:00 central.

Sounds like Karen is trying to use strategy and didn't play to win. Hope they bounce back.

I missed the game but saw the score. I thought Tennessee had a good chance to beat them. I didn't expect it to be that bad.
At least y'all are still in it.

 

[Gravey]

Only saw the box score when it was 9-0 and looked like the Lady Vols had used 5 pitchers at that point. Saw comments saying they didn't start their top 2 pitchers which seems odd.

I think Karen played if we get the lead she would bring in rogers, if not stick with every other pitcher except the aces. OKst wont be a push over either.

The only plausible reason that I have seen theorized is that Karen knows if we get there, we'll still have to beat them twice, no matter win or lose yesterday.

1. Ashley may not be 100% so rest her
2. The more times a team faces a pitcher the more likely they are to get comfortable.

Hopefully, it works, but I have my doubts. Getting drubbed sure kills confidence.

I heard a saying early on in my coaching girls sports that has stuck with me:

"Girls have to feel good to play good; whereas Boys have to play good to feel good"!

 

[PalsPal]

Well, maybe Karen knew what she was doing. Ashly looked good.

Play Florida St at 7. Win that one, and have to play them again at 9:30 with a chance to advance to the finals.

 

[PalsPal]

Didn't get to watch until later.

About as good as we could do.

Oklahoma can be beaten, but not twice. Will be pulling for FSU though.

Oklahoma took game 1 5-0. I flipped over a few times but didn't watch much.

 

[Crow Terminator]

I'm not an Oklahoma fan but I gotta tip my hat to those ladies and that team. They have it going on. Watching them play is like a work of art. Congrats on 3 titles in a row and a 53 game win streak. That's incredible, I don't care what team you pull for.

 

[PossumSlayer]

Oklahoma will sweep.. I've seen maybe 6 games they've played and I think they have voodoo dolls of opponents. Teams with great fundamentals start making mistakes when playing them.

 

[Gravey]

Oklahoma will sweep.

That's quite prophetic seeing as how they did sweep last night and won it all.

That's quite prophetic seeing as how they did sweep last night and won it all.

For some reason I thought last night was game one… I asked my wife a few minutes ago when was game two and she said "probably next year "

 

[Bamamonts]

Congrats to Oklahoma. They have a great team. They are on a different level.
