OU owns Mike white. Are you kidding me?

You’re not wrong though, I hope they figure it out. Really was hoping someone else could take them out so we could avoid them lol.

How many Director's Cup points did Texas secure with that win, they are assured to finish no worse than 6th now. 

this is from Biodog on IT.

 

Softball gets underway in the WCWS tomorrow at 11 AM against Florida on ESPN. Win and they'll move on to play Saturday, lose and they'll face elimination on Friday. Points-wise they'll go from 73 to 78 with one win, to 83 for the semifinals, and to 90 or 100 for making the championship series once again.

C'mon Mike White.  Can you finally beat Patty Gasso when it matters?  I want a moment like this in OKC

Is there a link to track that?
When I first read it I thought you were saying Texas was 6th in Cup, but I was under impression we were either leading or already sewed it up?
I love that we compete for this consistently.

🤘

I meant we were no worse than 6th in the Women’s College World Series.

Tennessee choked... we gotta do it the old fashioned way

Yep.    Questionable coaching decision for Tennessee with 2 outs in bottom of the 7th, why pitch to Parker?   OU’s best hitter by far and she had scored the only run for the Sooners with a HR in the first inning.   That seemed like an obvious situation to walk Parker, load the bases, they were up by 2 runs.   Makes me sick to see OU win on a 3-runs off homer in bottom of the 7th with 2 outs/.  
 

Saturday should be a great matchup!   Mike White needs to break the Sooner curse. 
 

Hook em!  🧡🐂🤘🏼

As Ric Flair used to say ... To be the man, you gotta beat the man!  Ou is currently the man.  Woooooooo

@Direct_Cupdates on X is great and he's a Longhorn.

Tavan was great yesterday.  Let's hope those bad games are behind her.  However, it would be nice to get more hitting.

Here's Tenn coach's explanation https://www.knoxnews.com/story/sports/college/university-of-tennessee/other-sports/2025/05/29/tennessee-oklahoma-softball-ella-parker-walkoff-home-run-karlyn-pickens/83930050007/

In other words, she thought the risk of Parker standing at 1B was greater than standing at home with a big hot bat in her hands.

Well the Tennessee coach is a big dumb idiot. Cat says no way you pitch to Oklahoma's best hitter with a true freshmen up next in that situation. 

 

Would you pitch to Shohei Ohtani in that situation, absolutely not.
