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.

Schloss on the miscues: "I don't know that it would've mattered because Volchko was so good, but it wasn't a good night for the Longhorns."

Schloss: "That was the worst defensive game we've played all season. By far."

Schloss said Volchko was super professional and outstanding.

Schloss' opening statement: "Well, there was a delayed start, but we did a heck of a job catching everybody up and getting everyone an early bedtime."

Le sigh, I was afraid this was going to happen. Why did it have to be UGA? We’ve got to get those guys. It’s really getting annoying at this point lol.

Schloss and the players are at the podium.
