Not sure that team wasn't better then the 83 championship team, Just couldn't get past Miami in the championship series

Tomorrow? Is it a double header for the winner between Tarleton State/UCSB?

Great series!

He has arrived, folks!

FINAL: Texas 16, Tarleton State 2

Ermis helps McCreery finish off a strikeout with a 2-3 putout, putting a fork in this one. Texas heads to the regional championship tomorrow to face either Tarleton State or UCSB.

With two outs in the bottom of the ninth, Schloss is going to bring Connor McCreery into the game for his first appearance of the season. Schloss wanted to get McCreery on the mound in the regional, if possible, as a reward for everything he's done for the program in his two seasons with the Longhorns. McCreery, who came to Texas from South Carolina with injury issues, made three appearances last season.

M9: Texas 16, Tarleton State 2

We had quite the pitching staff that year.

The previous record was 618 in 1985. Greg Swindell set the single-season school record with 204 strikeouts that same year.

After allowing a single, Winter induces a 6-4-3 double play to end the eighth.

Burnt Orange sky in Austin! What could be more perfect!! 🤘🏻🤘🏼🤘🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿

Winter's strikeout to open the eighth is the 619th of the season for the Longhorn pitching staff, setting a new school record.

Maybe Tech will suggest that Sorsby replace him. 🤣

M8: Texas 16, Tarleton State 2 Michael Winter is out of the bullpen to work the eighth.

Man Borba just doesn’t need to bat lol.

A solo shot to right by Rodriguez makes it 16-2 in favor of the Longhorns.

BOOM! AN A-BOMB FOR A-ROD!

Borba really needs some work on keeping his head in and trying to go with the ball when on the outside. He also chases too many out of the strike zone and it seems like he is looking at the fence half the time.

Sure, Tarleton’s seen him and UCSB has a whole season of film - that’s not really the point. There’s a difference between ‘they’ve scouted him’ and ‘we just let them watch him throw 84 pitches in real time the night before they might face him.’ Coaches don’t usually volunteer that kind of live look in a 13–0 game unless they have to. And yeah, I get the Ruger shoulder hedge and the Riojas insurance angle - that actually makes more sense than the scouting argument. But that’s kind of my point: if they’re worried about tomorrow’s arms, it means they’re stretching Volantis because they don’t trust the rest of the plan, not because this is some ideal scenario. It’s still a weird amount of work for a blowout. Not trying to argue with you Jeff, just feel this is kind of weird. And back in the Sandy Koufax days, yeah, he’d have thrown 180 pitches and then asked for the ball tomorrow - but that was before sports science, analytics, and common sense existed 😃
