  1. "The conference schedule consists of a single round robin of home or away (14 games) with one rotating opponent that will be played at home and away (2 games). Each team will play eight home games and eight away games. The rotating opponent changes annually. This marks the 18th season of the 16-game schedule for women's basketball." For Texas, these are the opponents Vic Schaefer's team will welcome to Moody Center: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Missouri, South Carolina, Tennessee and Vanderbilt The Longhorns will face the following opponents on the road: Auburn, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU, Ole Miss, Mississippi State and Oklahoma Texas will play Texas A&M at home and in College Station as the program's rotating opponent for the coming season.
  2. The word is getting out. Georgia is going with Dylan Vigue against Luke Harrison.
  3. Kentucky is in the SEC what Iowa State was to the Big 12. Tough kids who are coached hard and play with a physical edge make their place a tough place to play.
  4. Ian Armstrong of St. Mary's and Nolan Traeger of TCU are the other top portal catching targets for the staff.
  5. Jim Shamblin is the only other Longhorn to record five hits in a CWS game, doing so against Wake Forest in 1949.
  6. Usually about two hours before first pitch, if it doesn’t leak before then.
  7. Either Dylan Vigue or Zach Brown with a very short leash for whoever starts.
  8. Yes, barring something completely unforeseen.
  9. Georgia has only used two pitchers through two games. Joey Volchko went the distance against Texas and Caden Aoki did the same against OU:
  10. Highlights from yesterday’s win over Alabama:
  11. Another do-or-die game in Omaha for the Longhorns.
  12. After eliminating Alabama in yesterday’s 14-2 rout in Omaha, Texas gets another crack at Georgia with the season on the line. The Longhorns suffered a 7-1 loss to the Bulldogs in their CWS opener on Saturday, but Adrian Rodriguez hit for the cycle and Ruger Riojas had six solid innings on the mound to get Texas (46-14) to today’s elimination game against Georgia (52-13), which lost its winner’s bracket game against Oklahoma on Monday, 4-3. *** Texas is giving the ball to Luke Harrison (6-3, 4.29 ERA) for tonight's elimination game. Jim Schlossnagle mentioned after Monday's win over Alabama that he liked the Longhorns getting through two games without having to use Harrison, Sam Cozart or Thomas Burns, while Brett Crossland only went 0.2 innings and threw 14 pitches against Georgia on Saturday and didn't pitch against the Crimson Tide. Other than Riojas and (presumably) Dylan Volantis, Texas has every arm it would otherwise want to use available to go against the Bulldogs. Georgia will counter with Dylan Vigue (4-1, 4.73 ERA), who has struck out 69 batters in 59 innings, walking 34 and hitting 11, with 12 of his 48 hits allowed going for extra bases (seven doubles and five home runs). Vigue had a 2.63 ERA after going six innings against Florida on April 11, but he's struggled since leaving an April 17 start against Arkansas with forearm tightness. Since then, Vigue has allowed 24 hits and 19 earned runs in 16 innings. The good news for the Bulldogs is that with Joey Volchko and Caden Aoik going the distance against the Longhorns and Sooners respectively, Wes Johnson has a full complement of arms to bring out of the bullpen if Vigue gets in trouble. ***
  13. There’s a tight end who wasn’t mentioned. I heard that you can call him and get it straightened out. The phone number is 281-330-8004.
  14. Georgia loses to OU, 4-3. The Longhorns get another crack at the Bulldogs tomorrow at 7.
  15. More memorable career: Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby or Texas A&M head coach Mark Stoops?
  16. Yeah, it wasn't egregious. If they had kept it as a double with an advertisement on an error, I wouldn't have felt A-Rod got robbed. Likewise, it's not like he got a cheap one.
