7-3 OM final.

Believe Teague gave up all 7.

Arkansas starter James Teague left the game after allowing two base runners with no outs in the fourth. Teague allowed seven runs on eight hits in three-plus innings.

Arkansas freshmen Blaine Knight and Cody Scroggins combined to pitch five scoreless innings out of the bullpen. Knight struck out six in four innings, while Scroggins worked around two base runners in the eighth.

Ive been sticking to my 35 win season and clinching another spot in a regional for a 15th consecutive year.

Im really starting to back off of that now. I don't know if this team can win 15 more games with the schedule we have coming up. Hell, 10 more wins looks daunting at this point.

30-26 and a losing SEC record isn't going to get this team in a regional.

Pitching is just mind boggling. Starting pitching that is.

I'm in wait and see mode. I want to see Jackson tonight as a starter.

Surely between Knight, Alberius, Loeske, and Jackson we can find 2 pitchers that can give us 5 innings of decent work, if not, we're toast.

Jackson settled in and has pitched damn well, 93 pitches through 5 though and no offense.

Well, we started off the season with a bang but it looks like this one's a dud.

Thinking about it more, it just seems like this is our year to have one of those years.

The program has had an unprecedented run, as far as our programs standard has been concerned.

14 consecutive NCAA Regionals
4 CWS appearances since 2004
6 Super Regionals since 2003

2003: 35 wins
2004: 45 wins
2006: 39 wins
2007: 39 wins
2008: 34 wins
2009: 41 wins
2010: 43 wins
2012: 46 wins
2013: 39 wins
2014: 40 wins
2015: 40 wins

Just seems like it is our time to have a down year, according to our standards. The 2014 recruiting class, pitching wise, has not lived up to its billing. 2015 was a lower rated recruiting class, but it is the year before that where the starting pitching should be coming from right now. It just isn't producing.

As fans, we have grown accustomed to watching winners since DVH has been here, For me, it is hard to watch, knowing the pitching just isn't there this season. The bats have gone cold and there is not a stud pitcher to shut the others bats down. This leads to losing, and losing a lot. Right now this team is 0-5 in true SEC road games. Staring down yet another sweep on the road.

Every time we get close the very next inning they score 2 or 3 more runs

Well yeah we moved our only decent bullpen arms to the rotation so now when we get close later in the game the bullpen has no one and gets shelled.

Nothing you can do when you lack arms.

At least they got back on the winning side of things. 21-11 now.

Hopefully this series against the Gators will end up like last year vs the Faggies.

6 hits last night against ULM wasn't impressive.

Tac and Mckinney need to dig their heads outta their asses.
