Will KSU save their weekend guys for the weekend or might they throw one at us tomorrow hoping for the big win ?
Getting that CU win was big; especially on the road. I thought we may come out a little sluggish today against KSU, but Elliot was spot on, Shunk was great as normal, Kristokfak looked as good as I've seen him look all year. And yep @DGD28 Biggar handled Wilcox much better tonight. That's what I was saying, that inning the other night with 4 passed balls could have just been a pressing (oh no ) moment for him. I was always taught baseball is 10% physical and 90% mental. He had no carry over defensively, and should be fine now. DAWGS look really good. We haven't dropped an SEC series yet. With Vandy coming in, if we can take 2 of 3 there; we should be seen as capable of at least reaching Omaha. There will be hot and cold streaks for every team (and player.) But from where we are right now, it would take a colossal collapse to not host a regional as of this moment. Still alot of work to do, and some VERY good teams still on the schedule. GATA DAWGS!
The only reason I had a dv here was because in all reality, rankings mean nothing right now. That said, CU was #23. They're much better than that ranking. But we have literally 7 guys we can trot out to give us solid work even in these midweek games. We still have a few guys on the shelf. So we're getting healthier. Wilcox should get a midweek start after the Vandy series this wknd. Webb, Proctor, Elliot, Smith, and even Moody to go with Hancock and Locey gives us 7 starting arms. (There are a couple more that could, but the trust isn't quit there yet except for relief work with some others. Of course Hancock, Locey, Elliot and Smith are our top 4 right now. But Webb is SOLID and pretty darn filthy. Just needs better command. I hope we're just not peaking now to fall later in the year. Because as we saw in 08 when we were a game away from a national championship, we ended up losing it to Fresno st simply because they were red hot at that time.
Lol don't blame me, blame the guy that I mainly follow outside of twitter and the games that I can catch (as for some reason, I can't use Watch ESPN and I'd really like to figure out why as I have cable but when I put in the password it says "looks like you don't have a DirecTV account" which is a lie) on another forum for those comments and he's permanently shaken about "some" of the middle relief because of how they embarrassingly blew one Georgia Southern game and the Georgia Tech game. But from what I remember it was mainly Christian Ryder and Jack Gowen in both cases and while Stricklin originally said he was pitching the bench vs KSU (according to the same guy) he ended up avoiding both.
Tough loss yesterday. Nice win today. I don't know what the single season grand slam record for UGA is, but I wonder if this team will contend...
Rubber match taking place right now on the SEC Network if anyone wants to watch. No score so far. Dawgs batting in the bottom of the 2nd.
UGA up 2-0 T3
Tracy Rockers son pitching for Vandy. He's a big dude 6'4 240 apparently had a lot of draft buzz around him but momma made him go to college
#1 baseball prospect in the nation.

Dawgs win another series. 4-3
Dawgs played a heckuva game. Impressive win. (First series win over Vandy in 11 years!)
27-6 overall. 9-3 in conference. Hosting GT next (Tue at 7pm).
There beating some of the best teams in the country 2 out of 3 all these wknds. They should at least host a regional now.
Just imagine the depth of Sasser would have not been a bonehead...
Big cluster at # 1 in SEC , Dawgs in it.
Like it !
Dawgs come in at #2 in the country on D1 Baseball's top 25!
