PrintTexas takes on Kansas State today at 12:30 with a shot at the conference title game on the line. Baylor plays Kansas in a meaningless game at 9:00, and the other side of the bracket will follow Texas' game to earn the right to play on Sunday. Aggy beat OU in a shootout last night (although what has happened to Aggy ace Brooks Raley? Before facing Texas -- 7-1, 1.96 ERA, since facing Texas -- 13.1 IP, 20 ER) making every team in that bracket 1-1 and every team still alive to advance with a victory and a victory by the team they've already beat.
Today's Schedule:
- Baylor vs. KU -- 9:00 AM
- Texas vs. KSU -- 12:30 PM
- OU vs. Mizzou -- 4:00 PM
- Aggy vs. Tech -- 7:30 PM
Big XII Sports allegedly has your video and live stats.
PROBABLE PITCHING MATCHUPS
Texas: RHP Taylor Jungmann (6-3, 1.88 ERA)
Kansas State: RHP Todd Vogel (4-1, 5.20 ERA)

Sunday opponent
…making every team in that bracket 1-1 and every team still alive to advance with a victory and a victory by the team they’ve already beat.
OU win + Aggy win = Aggy advances
OU win + TTU win = OU advances
Mizzou win + TTU win = TTU advances
Mizzou win + Aggy win = Mizzou advances
Hook ’em!
Please tell me...
… that the camera work on the first ground out is not indicative of what we’ll see for the rest of the game. I could not be more confused.
They're there...
… they’re just not doing the vid broadcast. They’ll be on the radio if you tune in to 1300 or equivalent.
You have to e-mail
and ask him to say Just a bit outside
I never realized
Big12 baseball was so refined
There is an acheivement...
… for the spy class in Team Fortress 2 called “The Man from P.U.N.C.T.U.R.E.”. I guess that’s where it’s from.

I am watching on Big12 sports
Wanted to go to OKC but wife put the kabash on that idea

club link wind
theres that refined big 12 baseball again
This is why baseball loses fans
The guy just said that there was a “Two club length” wind blowing in. Ay, ayay…
Yup
usually when we dont play well we press at the plate. Swat at flys
I think the weird thing with this team is
they score five runs in the first inning on sunday against A&M and dont hit anything the rest of the game.
so whats the shelf life for a 93mph thrower in college
how long before hes in the MLB?

well, i didnt know the rules
like basketball, all you need is a diploma to get in the NBA

They can go after high school
But if they go to college they have to stay until after their junior year or after they are 21, whichever comes first
I want to point out that my Nationals bullpen are 2-16 with 13 blown saves in 19 chances
For no real reason
Can't wait till the Cubs come to town
I’ll be at all 4 of those games. If that doesn’t get the Cubs hitters going, nothing will.
I won the lottery for Red Sox tickets
But had the email sent to an account I didn’t check until it was a month too late
so the Big 12 just made up the switch for no reason?

Jungmann must have tightened up or something
so they allowed him to throw some
My dog has given up on me playing with her...
… and now she’s just laying down at my feet, wagging her tail whenever I say anything similar to praise. Like “oh, good, Rupp’s still in.” Probably sounded like “Oh, Good Pupp! BLAH BLAH BLAH!”
thats why you get a longhorn shirt for her so she can show her support as well

and the batter is Vaughn..
I think there is something to this
do do do do do do do do do
you have entered the major league zone

It took a quick dive
certainly appeared to hit his bat
Horn Brain that photo is disturbing!
It’s not Halloween yet! Maybe you’re bringing bad karma to the boys.

see kids
thats what happens when you OD on longhorns every hour of the day
by future_longhorn_dad on May 23, 2009 2:04 PM CDT up reply actions
i dont like it either
seems like if we get any kinda lead off hit, we immediately go with the sac bunt
by future_longhorn_dad on May 23, 2009 2:05 PM CDT up reply actions
with our pitching
just getting 1 run at time is not as bad of a thing
by future_longhorn_dad on May 23, 2009 2:08 PM CDT up reply actions
The problem with that analysis
Is that it assumes an average team in an average park. Texas is an above average pitching team without much power in a pitchers park. Generating a few runs here and there with superb pitching in a pitchers ballpark is a smart way to win ball games. Sitting back and waiting for the power isn’t as smart. It’s why Augie’s got 5 titles.
They said he hit his hand on the bat throwing the ball and it was bleeding
So they made the decision to pull him out
They went on for about 5 minutes
about the camera angles and why they aren’t that good.
Can we get some hits now that Vogel is out???

Maybe they are so stunned to see a giraffe run to second
they forget to throw the ball?
Actually
dont giraffe do more of a gallup?

did he walk to first in a hyperspeed manner?

lets think of a body part we have heard of before that sounds like it would be a bad injury

There is more post in this thread
than a whole season at BGU
is it just me
or is having beergut as A&Ms main blogger (i could be mis-informed) is just hilarous
by future_longhorn_dad on May 23, 2009 2:41 PM CDT up reply actions
I started reading that the other day
it was pretty funny
Imagine a community of beerguts posting thousands of threads
Each more deluded than the last. That’s hilarious.
The question is, can you write off the suit on your taxes?
or are they worried you would wear it out to dinner?
haha
If it is quiet on here, it means I’m at the craps table.
Shit! Who’s gonna do the live game thread?
Glad to see they aren't going to try to let Jungmann go
Better to get him out now
He's not even spelling weird names.
Bluxom? Moldenhauer? You spell things with X’s or five consonants in a row or something.
They were #1 earlier in the year but have completely fallen off the map
Remind you of a Big XII team?
Hmm biggest fan in Vegas?
At the crap table?
Thought about that after I posted
If he bats again this inning I’ll take it if he strikes out
I get paid to watch baseball
I dont need a real job. :)
Kevin Lusson hitting now for Tant
Nice tourney, Tant

did I hear the announcer refer to the regular strike area?
I wonder if there’s another name for that?
does loy have on the wrong glove or something?
by future_longhorn_dad on May 23, 2009 3:21 PM CDT reply actions
I'm probably way late on this
but how do we win a 3 way tie break with Baylor and KSU?
'Til Gabriel blows his horn...
So its like the football tie break in that what happens on the field is irrelevant?
'Til Gabriel blows his horn...
who would you rather play
irrelevance aside

Finally
Revenge on the state of Kansas. albeit an ugly revenge (4 errors?!)

Dumb Question
Wouldn’ t the winner of Mizzou and OU automatically be in because they are the #3 and the #2 seed respectively and the winner would be 2-1? The Aggy/Tech winner would be 2-1 but lower ranked then either Mizz or OU so doesn’t that game pretty much mean nothing?
Guaranteed to work 60% of the time, every time.
That makes sense
Since Texas beat the only 2-0 team forcing a three way tie then the highest rank team of those three goes. What a screwy system but what else would we expect from the Big 12
Guaranteed to work 60% of the time, every time.
The logic is that this way:
Every team plays 3, predictable games, so it’ll be more fan friendly
The most games a team can play is 4, therefore saving pitching staffs from being overworked…not sure anyone buys that it’s a good system, but whatev.
