In case you haven't ben keeping up..
Osorio currently leads the nation with 148 strikeouts, and her ratio of 15 strikeouts per seven innings is also the best in the nation.

Osorio is a machine this year (knock on wood).

Bama has a pretty easy SEC schedule this year, they play the 4 worst teams.

Yep..Threw 2 perfect games in a week.

And Littlejohn has been just as good..Our problem has been stranding runners..Which killed us against ULL.

I'll admit I'm a casual softball fan, but that's been a consistent problem under Murphy from what I've seen. We always have one beast pitcher we can ride as far as she can take us but not enough bats. And somewhere along the line, even your ace gets tagged for some runs and if you can't answer, game over. Murphy has done a wonderful job building the program to consistent contender but he seems to have a blind spot where big bats are concerned. And the rest of the SEC is gaining on us. It's no longer a two team league of Florida and Bama and everyone else. We need to evolve to maintain our advantage.

Murphy is a great coach and has built this program, but Auburn might have the best coach in the country. What he has done in such a short time is unreal.

No doubt. I hear Auburns coach will retire after this year and turn it over to his son. That was supposedly the reason he took the job.

Talked to a gal involved with Arizona Wildcats Softball at the world series a few years back, she said Clint Myers is a big cheat.


Auburn Gymnastics is coming back down to earth, can't wait for this nonsense to die down. We can start by sweeping them at home.

I was trying to watch a Bama softball/baseball double header yesterday since Saturdays are really the only day I can. And... both rained out.

Our bats has been solid this week. hope we can keep it up.

Ot: yeah I was pretty bummed when Meyer left ASU because he took a freshman Ace to a championship series win so I knew he would have Auburn up and running fast.

Those fricktards can't stand to see us beat them badly in anything so they will lie, cheat, and steal to catch up any way they can. Witness softball and gymnastics. I take some comfort in knowing we returned the favor for them in swimming. frick Auburn!!

Bama's offense disappears during some games.
