I put this question in the chat yesterday about seeing a tick down on Defense because of the real grass and dirt field on Bases Loaded. You guys acted like it wasn’t a big deal because they have played a bunch of games on those type of fields and I think it played more into the game than you thought. I agree with Schloss, worst game defensively I’ve seen all year. Don't know if it had to do with the field or the lights were too bright but either way they can’t afford for it to happen again.

So nowhere in the presser did he ever take any ownership of that dumpster fire of a game we all had to suffer through?

Can’t win titles saving your worst for Omaha. Stick couldn’t hit with a tennis racket… no adjustments taking 3 strikes… def was awful… hitting over matched… just a good ole ass kicking.

Yes, yes he did

Just try to get one Monday and finish as high as possible at least competing. No way this team and staff can win it all coming from the loser bracket. But still a good season , just a frustrating way to lose . The flaws have been there for all to see, but finishing in the top 6 or better is about right. The program will still be in the hunt for the future!

1 p.m.

That's it for the press conference. The Longhorns will practice tomorrow to prepare for Alabama.

Schloss said Ruger Riojas will start the elimination game against Alabama on Monday.

Schloss was planning to pull Volantis after the fourth, but Texas scored in the top of the fifth. Schloss felt taking Volantis out would've sent the wrong message to the team.

A lot of fans came out to watch/get an autograph from Teagan today

Schloss said Volchko perfectly executed Georgia's plan. Particularly, he mentioned how Volchko only uses his overhand curveball against lefties, which really tied up Anthony Pack Jr.

Schloss said he doesn't have an update on Ethan Mendoza. He said maybe swinging the bat negatively impacted his shoulder, whereas it hasn't since he suffered the injury at Tennessee.

"He's been lobbing them all season and he's been lobbing them perfect," Schloss said of Tinney handling dropped third strikes. "That one, he didn't."

On the two Tinney errors, Schloss said the first was just a mistake. The second one, he said Tinney rushed it. "I expect him to respond in an awesome way on Monday," he said.

Schloss doesn't know if Aiden Robbins taking ball four instead of swinging to open the game would've changed anything. When Volchko stuck out the side, Schloss said he was locked in and it was a tough night for Texas.

Schloss said Texas wasn't taking pitches. Volchko's fastball was just hard to pick up because it was 94-96 mph with movement.

A-Rod said he does not doubt the Longhorns will come back and compete hard on Monday against Alabama.

A-Rod on facing Volchko: "As a lefty, I knew everything was coming into me, so I needed to beat it to the spot."

A-Rod: "We don't play to the scoreboard, we play to a standard. Today, we didn't meet that standard."

"My bad," Volantis said regarding what Tinney told him, walking off the field after the first inning.

Volantis said the great defensive play A-Rod made in the second got things going in the right direction for him.

Should get close to breaking the 2025 Texas draft record, at least on paper.

Need to come thru the losers bracket

Volantis said he told Carson Tinney that there are no hard feelings about his errors. "It happens," he said. "We're going to get that cleaned up."

Volantis said he told himself after the first inning that he tried to tell himself that it was a 0-0 game and he needed to go out and compete.
