If that means we don’t see Rojas, Volantis or Harrison this weekend, I’m ok. 

They were never going to pitch anyway.

After seeing Dietz take that one off the ankle I am perfectly fine not using any big arms in this tournament. 

[Bevohorns]

How do people watch this we are throwing the game away by starting this dude. It’s a 3 game max just like any other series start your pitcher or don’t show up. Softball has the advantage on this one in terms of sec tournaments

Weather and poor field conditions provide the absolute ultimate justification for sitting ace arms.

Is it wrong I’m happy we are at least giving their pitchers some bruises .( Hope they are ok no injuries ofc) 🤷

Because this weekend means nothing to Texas. If possible they would have rather skipped it.

Cody Howard went two innings, allowing six runs on five hits, including a couple of long balls.

Luke Harrison worked a scoreless third, allowing a hit and striking out one.

Tinney looks at a third strike at the end of an 8-pitch at-bat to open the third.

[Class of 04]

Remind me to shut off all my social media for the rest of the weekend, it's gonna be brutal.

[Jeff Howe]

Nice two-out double by Temo.

Harrison works around hitting a batter and allowing a single, getting a 4-6-3 double play and a strikeout to get through the fourth.

I would like to see Kozeal get thrown at for his Horns F’in down after his HR, but I’m old school like that 😂

I hope it pays off. It would suck mightily if we get ousted from the regionals again like last year.

New pitcher for Arkansas:

Back-to-back strikeouts by Larson and Pendergrass end the fourth with Mendoza (walk) stranded on first.
