I think Texas would beat either team, but rather see them play ASU

Kavan is in championship form.

Texas can bring home another NC with 7 consecutive wins.

2 super regional + 3 WCWS bracket + 2 finals), assuming we win every series in the minimum number of games.

Aggies down early

[Buck Travis]

Damn. That was an amazing move by the ASU runner to score at home.

I agree with this. ASU doesn’t have quite the same offensive team (IMO) that can get to our arms. That not withstanding I am loving that Aggie gets knocked out again after being a national seed. 

[Taylorgang3]

Texas ladies allowed 1 run all regional. Insane.

Many here keep saying they would've preferred Arizona State over A&M, but that feels backwards after what just happened. ASU is playing really sharp softball right now, and today’s 9–1 run‑rule win over the Aggies wasn’t a fluke - that’s a team peaking at the right time.

Texas A&M has been inconsistent, sure, but Arizona State is the one trending up, hitting well, and closing games early. If anything, ASU looks like the tougher matchup at the moment. Wanting them instead of A&M feels like wishful thinking more than scouting.

If we’re being honest about current form, the team that just run‑ruled the Aggies is not the “easier” draw.

I’d argue that A&M came into the tournament with a tough draw, and being a team on the downward slope. Texas is improving (SEC tournament and the regional), and has always performed in the postseason under White. Texas shows historically had a slow April, and Aggie has had postseason issues. 
 

Also, Arizona State had some added desire to beat the former coach. Ford hasn’t been regarded as a championship winning coach (outside of one run to the WCWS). You’re reading too much into ASU, and not enough into the downside of Aggie coupled with the playoff success of Texas under Mike White.

I get the historical angles you’re bringing up, but none of that changes what’s happening right now. A&M being “on a downward slope” is exactly why ASU run‑ruled them. That’s the whole point - the team trending up is the tougher matchup, and ASU is the one peaking at the moment.

Texas improving doesn’t magically make Arizona State less dangerous. ASU didn’t beat A&M because of “extra motivation” or because Ford isn’t a championship coach - they beat them because they’re hitting the ball extremely well and closing games early. That’s current form, not narrative.

If we’re evaluating who Texas would rather see this weekend, the team that just 9–1’d the Aggies is not the easier draw. Saying A&M has postseason issues doesn’t erase what ASU is doing on the field right now.
