I wonder what the Sooner message boards are like after today’s loss…

Didn't see that game, but will agree with you that softball needs to fix that pitcher re-entry rule because what Tech had to be doing isn’t “strategy,” it’s a cover‑up. When you’re swapping the same two pitchers five times(like you said), you’re not managing a game. All you’re doing is hiding the fact that neither one can actually get through a lineup. This isn’t clever coaching. It’s a loophole being milked by a staff that clearly doesn’t trust its own arms. The constant re‑entering doesn’t disrupt hitters - it just exposes how thin their pitching really is. If your best competitive edge is gaming the rulebook, that tells the whole story.

I live in Buda, on the west side. My son has a house on the east side. I've lived in the general area for almost 60 years, but in Buda for only 10 years. Traffic is getting worse by the day/month/year. I never go into Austin unless I'm heading to a UT game or it's something that I can't do/attend without it.

I recently went on a trip to San Diego and went on a boat. Out of Touch came on while we were gliding through the bay. Definitely qualified (for me) as quintessential yacht rock.

The Round 3 cut is official. 15 teams left: 1. Stanford (-21) 2. USC (-16 3. OkSU (-10) 4. TEXAS (-6) 5. Iowa state (-3) 5. Arkansas (-3) 7. Florida (+2) 7. Arizona State (+2) 7. Duke (+2) 10. Eastern Michigan (+6) 11. Pepperdine (+8) 11. Mizzou (+8) 13. SMU (+10) 13. UNC (+10) 15. Northwestern (+12) CUT Texas a&m is cut. Texas tech is 29th.

We sold our house in Buda a couple of years ago, but only relocated to San Marcos because of my wife's work. More restaurants/bars are popping up every week, it seems. There's plenty to do away from the I-35 corridor.

How different is the offseason vibe going into the 2005 season if Dusty Mangum misses the walk-off field goal against Michigan in the Rose Bowl?

This one doesn't get enough love.

He basically did it with one arm. Augie wanted to pinch-hit for him, but Wheeless convinced him that he saw Ryan LaMotta well, so Augie stuck with him.

Wow! Half court buzzer beater at the half.

I wouldn't do much homework on Miami. With Arkansas not hosting and Mississippi State presumably getting that spot, it might make more sense to send the Hurricanes to Starkville.

Pretty much. Even if Arkansas had won today, would its RPI have improved enough (currently 21st) to get into the top 15?

But now it is found! Bobby has got to love this one.

Roll left against nebraska

Miami is a tough 2 seed, at least given their history of success. Don’t know anything about them this season though… In other news do we think the Aggies are going to have a parade for hosting? 😜

A lot of Hall and Oates nominations here, and I do not disagree. But, I have a question. Out of Touch is my favorite Hall and Oates song, but I do not consider that to be yacht rock. Unlike the rest of their catalogue. Am I off base here?

Arkansas not hosting is just another data point for how much these conference tournaments do not matter.

As a reminder, the Top 8s and the full field of 64 will be unveiled tomorrow at 11 a.m. on the selection show. OTF will be live on YouTube.

Arkansas looks like the biggest snub for a host. The Razorbacks were on the hosting bubble and made the title game of the SEC Tournament, but they’ll be on the road.

The fifth-ranked Texas baseball team was named one of 16 regional hosts for the NCAA Tournament on Sunday. The Austin Regional at UFCU Disch-Falk will begin on Friday, May 29. That wasn’t a surprise, considering the Longhorns won 40 regular-season games, finished second in the SEC standings and have been one of the nation’s top RBI teams (No. 5 in RPI according to D1Baseball.com). What remains to be seen is if Texas (40-13, 19-10 SEC) will be one of the eight national seeds when the field of 64 is unveiled on Monday. D1Baseball's Field of 64 projections published Sunday have the Longhorns as the No. 6 overall national seed, hosting an Austin Regional featuring No. 2 seed Miami (Fla.), No. 3 seed Louisiana and No. 4 seed UC San Diego. D1Baseball has Texas matched up with the Tallahassee Regional, hosted by projected No. 11 seed Florida State, which would pit the Longhorns against the Seminoles in the Austin Super Regional with a trip to the College World Series on the line. The On Texas Football staff will be live on YouTube at 11 a.m. Monday, when ESPN announces the field assembled by the Division I Baseball Selection Committee. The burnt orange faithful hope Jim Schlossnagle’s second NCAA Tournament on the Forty Acres goes better than his postseason debut leading the program. Entering last year's tournament as the No. 2 overall national seed, Texas was eliminated from the Austin Regional by UTSA, losing twice to the Roadrunners. This marks the third time in the last five seasons that the Longhorns have hosted a regional. Texas won its regional at Disch-Falk Field in 2021 and 2022, with the 2021 squad eliminating USF in the Austin Super Regional to reach the College World Series. No team in Division I history has more College World Series appearances (38) or wins (88) than the Longhorns. For Texas, the road to Omaha in 2026 marks the program's 65th postseason appearance, with the 2026 Austin Regional marking the 39th time the Longhorns have hosted the NCAA Tournament.
