We won the natty and we'll play a lot of very motivated teams this year. Goes with the territory.

I get that it’s a message board, and talking about sports is kind of the point, but I doubt I’ll be saying anything negative about the baseball team until at least 2024

Need to come back and salvage tomorrow. It’s early, but in terms of getting a national seed, every game matters. We can only lose around 15 total, if that is the goal. Get swept, and we will almost have to run the table in the remaining non-conference games to stay on track.

Talk to me in April after SBW. This bunch is their own team. The NC team is in the past By April we will have a better idea of what they are capable of doing. Dropping the first two sucks donkey balls definitely but we don't know if we are going to Omaha or Oktoc.

I mean you can even argue that national seed isn’t the end all be all either. I’m in favor of it because the new stadium has been an excellent home field advantage in the postseason, but we can just as well get to Omaha without a Top 8 seed.

I can't remember what team it was but we had one team that rolled off like 15 or maybe 18 wins against no losses at the beginning of the season & we were even ranked number one.

We didn't even make the postseason.

My 13 yr old is ready to fire everyone - told him not happening

Based on what he saw today -there’s no “it” guy - he doesn’t see postseason play and if no post season - which he says is unacceptable - it’s time

Told him he’s ruthless and lives in fantasy land

True, but we don’t have the luxury of any Big 12 bottom feeders to beef up our overall W-L record like they do. I’m still hoping for a top 8 seed, despite this start, and we can only afford 5-6 non-conference losses to make that happen.
