Around SBN: Dog Football! Which Breeds Are Best Suited For The Gridiron?

Baseball Falls 31-12

Thats not a football score its baseball.

The 31 runs allowed were the most ever by a Texas squad.

Texas and Missouri play game two of the three-game series Saturday at 2 p.m.

Stat of the game, Crow The Mizzou pitcher allowed nine runs and still got the victory.

Yikes!

It's not very often...

...that you jump out to an 8-0 lead, then lose by 19. That's exactly what Texas did Friday night. Embarrassing.

My boy Sherrod says, "What's with all the Chiles love? Y'all forgettin' that it was #17 with the 70 yarder in the spring game..."

Will wait until Sunday

To post our thoughts...not sure there's any way to swing a 19 run loss. I didn't think we'd win Friday's game, but...damn.

To be fair

I think a bunch of those runs were scored against people who never would have played had it been close.

But yeah, 31 runs is awful - even with the win blowing out.

Silver Lining?

I don't know if one exists, but to score 12 runs against Mizzou pitching (including 9 off their superb starter) is a feat.

Also, Kyle Russell is officially swinging a hot bat after belting 2 homers yesterday.

So, are we into double digit ERAs yet?

What is this? You win 500 games at one place and the baseball gods come around and pound your brain into mush.

If this was a half way normal Texas team, you'd swear you wouldn't have any more bad luck for a couple of years. But somehow I get the feeling that won't be true of this group.

Man!

Is it just me, or does Texassports love the pic of Michael Torres where he looks like Mack Brown?

Question

I didn't watch or follow any of the games this weekend.  But I did read in the paper where the mercy rule was used in one of A&M's victories.  Why was the mercy rule not used Friday night?

the run rule

only applies on days of travel, such as Sunday, when we put a 12-2 beating on the sooners.
