20 saves in their 37 wins, meaning they've won over half of their games by 3 runs or less. They have SEVEN one-run SEC wins. While that's really amazing, I don't see it being sustainable through June. Hope we see em in Omaha.

They’ve lost their best pitcher and best hitter and are still winning. That’s quite remarkable. Will be difficult for them to win it all without them.

Their ace was just declared out for the season last week to undergo shoulder surgery. Even though we’re #2 in the country if that happened to us right now tRant would be declaring the season over already

ETA thats going to be a huge blow come postseason

It doesn't matter what their record is or how they got here. They will probably win the SEC overall. The goal is to get a top 8 national seed and get hot in the post season. I don't care if we win by one run or 20. Just win, especially when it counts.

It's the umpires in Austin. Texas hasn't played anyone decent outside the confines of that joke of a stadium. Just like football. And probably every other sport if you bothered to look it up

They won't do anything in the postseason without the umps in their pocket

Their pitching coach ruined the kid's arm and shoulder with his advice on pitching a slider. Did it to several other pitchers at A&M as well according to them.

We are WAY ahead of where I thought we'd be in Schloss' first season. The rest of this season is just gravy for me. Super happy where we are regardless how we finish.

Once you reach the acceptance stage you'll be on your way to full recovery.

No doubt will be. We may get Max for the postseason. Will be interesting to see how it shakes out when Jonah Williams, Max Belyeu and Adrian Rodriguez is healthy as there’s not enough spots for all of them.

Winning national championships is hard…quite difficult.

Even though I’ve SEEN LSU play for 12 football and baseball national championships, and I’ve SEEN LSU win 10 football and baseball national championships, it’s still difficult to do.

Your attitude screams of someone desperate to be taken at his word, but we all know Texas hasn’t proven they have the culture to win the big one.

Do you have reading comprehension issues? Do you remember English teachers in high school counting off points for this very issue?
I said nothing about winning at all. I said I’m happy with where the program stands at this moment. That’s one hell of reach you made there sport. I don’t think elastic man could reach that far

I think we can say that Texas has been very impressive. Whether you like them or not. Their conference record is incredible.

Sucks they lost their ace because if LSU does play them in Omaha I want all teams at full strength so there are no “what ifs”.

I’m not sure I remember very many points taken off in school for any subject, including English. Your statement insinuated that even in the event this season ended prematurely, relative to the Texas record, ranking, and current expectations, you would be happy because surely this is only the beginning of a long run of success at Texas. In its best form it carries an undertone of arrogance and simplicity that isn’t reinforced with any substantial data, evidence or analysis.

Now go sit down and ask ChatGPT to write a response you simple little fool.
