2-0 over Southern Miss.
2 runs seem to be our M.O.
I wonder if they'd just give Alabama 2 runs and not make them have to hit...I'd really speed the game up.

This has to be the worst hitting team in school history.

I think Anthony Grant took over our softball program.

Scoring, BTFOing SEC opponents, breaking OU's heart, competing for the conference, did I mention scoring?

This is really starting to feel like a million years ago.

Murphy has done a terrible job of recruiting over the last couple of years. When you have the facilities, fan support and tradition that Alabama has in softball, it's inexcusable to waste it...probably just got lazy.

Anyone know what our 2018 and 2019 classes look like? I don't follow softball recruiting? Any reasons to hope for good things next year?

I hope Bama can get a top 16 national seed to make sure they host a regional.

Pretty much no chance at a top 8 seed right now,

We'd have to sweep Auburn convincingly and hope a top team or two has a bad weekend.

Bama just doesn't have enough quality wins to be a top 8 seed.

Top 5 wins are
2 wins over LSU
1 win over ULL
1 win over Missouri
Then it would be the win over USA or Stanford.

Split a doubleheader with Ole Miss today, won 2-0 and lost 2-1.

Bama just hit back to back home runs. However, the 2nd home run doesn't count because the player didn't touch home plate.

Guess since Bama hardly scores, they forgot how to touch home plate.

Murphy must tell his hitters not to swing at the first pitch. The hitters are just looking at perfect right down the middle first pitches.
Then they swing at pitches in the dirt.

So dumb to fall behind 0-1 most of the time by watching easy to hit balls go by.

just loss the series to Ole Miss, in a 4-3 loss tonight. Bama hadn't lost a game to Ole Miss since 2005 before this series. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Pretty ugly year for the gals. But at least they aren't 2-19 I guess.

We don't need to be fricking around with any sport that requires a bat and a glove this year.

Could potentially finish under .500 in the SEC if they don't get a win versus auburn. Which seems daunting at this rate.

And to think Alabama had the easier route to a conference title in 2017. Maybe Murphy should pretend to take another job again.
