TCU - TEXAS 6PM

When was the last time TCU was in the College World Series? EXTRA Monday Night Baseball goodness. Will some rubber-armed UT Pitcher throw 200 pitches tonight? Will TCU hit twice as many HR's as UT? Asked about the Longhorns lineup, some Coach said, "They don't scare me, there's only one guy in the lineup that really scares you. That's Preston Clark. He usually sits the bench." (Paraphrasing) 

Numbers: BA - Texas .287, TCU .312, HR's: Texas 36, TCU 62. ERA: Texas 2.83, TCU 4.17

Go Frogs!

Had a feeling that UVA would knock off Ole Miss (compared with Strasburg and Irvine, Ole Miss is not a big worry); and Southern Miss was a fun upset as well. TCU winning would be neat, since UT annoys me to death.

Shame that my Owls got walloped this weekend.

Go Rice Owls!

UT is annoying. Although I did go there, I like TCU in this matchup.

I just confirmed that TCU has never been to the College World Series. Which makes this a pretty cool opportunity for the Frogs.

typical

class act from the Augie Garrido lead Texas team. Guy hits a bomb and stands there like he’s arrived. I guess that’s what you get when your coach is a drunk driving, poor sportsmanship jackass like Garrido

what about the NBA? they never curse

different. You spend maybe 90 minutes a day with a professor twice a week. Plus, if you are at UT, you are one of about 8 thousand kids in the class. Those guys are around Garrido constantly and look to him for guidance

calling a team full of kids classless. Yeah sometimes guys big league it, doesnt mean his coach tolerates that. Doesnt mean his teammates tolerate that. Most likely that would be addressed in a normal game right away but this is THE biggest game of that kid’s career.

Well hey according to ASL's

logic: A guy on your team dropped on a bomb on us when we were leading like 9-2 (after the HR) and big leagued it a bit. Never saw him doing anything like that ever in any other time we played them but since he did that ONCE, he is a douche, you are a douche, everyone who played for AC ever is a douche. And so is your coach!! Who i know for a FACT didnt like stuff like that. haha :-)

its dumb

is it also classless if he hits a walkoff HR to win the game and go to the college world series and pimps the shit out of it and augie only slaps him on the ass?

Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.

Yeah...

these guys are 18-23. Im sure im “pimped” it once or twice on the mound after striking a guy out. Never ever meant to show anyone up just pumped i was doing well for my team. My coach my first 3 yrs in college would make us run for stuff like and he didnt because he just didnt catch or see it.

I want the last two minutes of my life back.

Can someone just do me a favor and update the score for me. Or better yet, tell me where to find a box score.

your arguement

is that texas does it so its classless — the question is what about all the other schools who are known for having foul mouthed coaches? or who overuse pitchers (look at the guy at missouri or horton at fullerton)

you want to bash augie for dropping F bombs when hes argueing with umpires — i guarantee you that if the TCU coach gets booted from this game he screams some F bombs if its that big of a play — also i bet that if this game goes 20 innings and TCUs pitcher from game 1 came out and was throwing no hit ball for 8 innings and threw 130 pitches today after throwing hte other day he wiill stay in if hes doing well

guarantee you that

I almost forgot how Augie cancelled the return trip to TCU this year after season tickets had already been sold. That is kind of an overall UT athletic deal after pulling out of their game in Hawaii back in 2000

clearly it was 100% his decision

i mean, obviously he has the final say on everything involving texas, right?

way to ignore what was said above

and i mean, no divison 1 school has ever backed out of any agreement in the history of the NCAA

then what is your arguement

your quick the fact that one person does something to bash them, but you are unwilling to realize or recoginze that anyone else does it (or in these cases EVERYONE else does it)

you say that a person is classless because they curse during arguements on the field and they overuse pitchers — and the counter arguement is that everyone does it

your formula

if a) a coach uses F bombs
and b) the coach overuses a pitchers arm
then c) the said coach is classless

a) and b) apply to every baseball coach i have ever had at any level above high school — the other guy on here (m cave) that i know played college ball i am 99% sure did the same thing. the 2 college coaches my brother played under did the same thing, the juco coaches i have ever seen in my hometown (about 3 of them) ALL did that.

my little brothers high school coach did it this year, the coach at spring hill did it this weekend, the coach from mckinney north overused one of his pitchers this weekend, the pittsburg coach did it a couple of weeks ago, the austin colelge coach did it, the TLU coach did it, the sul ross coach did it, the aTm coach has done it — so again, what is your arguement here? that 99% of college coaches are classless?

My argument

is that Garrido is a classless jackass and you have done nothing to prove me wrong. You just keep saying, this guy did this, and that guy does that, and everyone does that sometimes. Nothing that proves anything about Garrido not being a classless jackass

no

your arguement is that he is a jackass because of your personal experience with him and that he is classless because he curses and overuses pitches — i have nothing to say to go against your personal experience because you have said nothing other than he is a jackass, but your other arguement about him being classless uses horrid logic, logic that can be applied to any college level coach (or below)

didn't give a reason

called Schloss and said we aren’t coming to FW. You can still come to Austin if you want. They played a midweek in Austin and UT won 6-0 I believe.

Its the same thing that happened in football

the big schoold dont want to play the up and coming schools that have good talent cause they set themselves up for a loss…

UT payed TCU 50,000 in penalty for canceling that game this year… 375,000 for cancelling the football game.

This is our year.

TCU

had a good run. I really hate the “modern” field at the Disch. And I don’t think it’s very fair to play so many home games in the CWS playoffs.

Horns CAN GO all the way!

by 3Bagger on Jun 8, 2009 9:06 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Home games

If you tried to have all of the postseason games at neutral sights you wouldn’t have very good attendance. It may not be fair but if you have a good enough regular season, you will get home field advantage in the playoffs. Even a team like Irvine with a little POS stadium would have had all their games at home if they wouldn’t have lost in the regionals against Virginia.

by uthornfan on Jun 8, 2009 9:11 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Home field

I know, but when you watch the games it is an obvious advantage to:

1. Know the field.
2. Sleep in your own bed.
3. Not have homers yelling distracting lines all night long.

Stuff like that. I did enjoy the HD aspect of the game tonight. And I like UT’s chances going forward.

by 3Bagger on Jun 8, 2009 9:16 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

It is a huge advantage

which is why the regular season matters. Win enough games in the regular season to become a national seed and you get home field advantage throughout the playoffs.

by uthornfan on Jun 8, 2009 9:20 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I agree

It’s a lot better this way than having the lower seeded team host

good pitching and good defense. They’ll have to play smart to win some close games, but they have as good a chance as anyone to win the CWS.
