TN threw away this game on purpose imo. Win or lose today, they would still have to beat OU twice in the final.
They are saving their good arms to get there.. and not letting OU get looks against them.
Just my opinion.

Very interesting point and if I'm the Tennessee coach, my odds of making it out of the elimination game in the other side of the bracket, and beating OU twice are greater than beating OU 3 times.

Think after 3-0 score they changed their plans … I would have stuck with the first pitcher she is a good one she just threw one bad pitch .

I tend to agree. Starting the ace was the only to win, but that was slim at best. Now it’s OK State, likely Florida State twice as the road to a best of 3 showdown. I rather do that with my top 2 rested, rather than pitching them in a game you’d have to play perfect to have a shot.

I don't know. I think Oklahoma is just that good and they get to play at home which would be like letting Alabama or UGA play every football championship game at home. That's a lot to overcome.
I think the LVs have a great team but Oklahoma has just been so much better than everyone else. I said before we're all playing for 2nd place and I believe that to be true. However, since the LVs got stuck in Oklahoma's bracket we're kinda fricked early.
I want to think we're being strategic and that we're better than that game but I just think Oklahoma can do that to even great teams as they've been doing it for 3 years.

This has more validity than a lot would realize.
