This Bama team has been incredibly frustrating to watch all year.

All the Murph defenders want to point to the record and offensive numbers to show he's changed his philosophies, but he still does inexplicably dumb shite almost every game (sticking with players who have no business starting, substituting at bizarre times, having our best hitters bunt people over, etc.).

WHY THE frick CAN'T ANYONE ON THIS TEAM HIT A CHANGEUP!?

After last weekend I may have to take this weekend off from watching


You guys are 44-6 and in 2nd place in the toughest conference in the nation. You have lost one weekend series this season on the road against the team with the best pitching staff in the nation. And you say your team has been incredibly frustrating to watch all year?

That is kind of funny to me.

Felt good. The Tide arent off to a great start against the Vols in 2026. Lets hope it continues into the fall


When I was a kid, in the baseball league I played in there was one team that only had 6 losses - three of which were to one team.

That team ended up .500. I don’t remember them bragging about beating the team that finished above them.

That doesnt even remotely apply here.

Basketball: Tennessee was .500 against Bama but went to an Elite 8, while Bama didn't

Baseball: Tennessee won the series, and now Bama and Tennessee are tied in conference.

Softball: Tennessee won the series, which likely keeps Bama from winning the SEC. They are now both just top-10 teams, having the same year.

Vols have a .625 winning percentage against Bama so far, with more postseason success to show for it as of right now. Tennessee has so far gotten the better of Bama in 2026. That's just a fact

To be fair... The SEC is a lot deeper... But the OU, Texas and Oklahoma State were as good as the best SEC teams. But in the SEC, there are four or five really tough series' as opposed to just two. And in the SEC you get to skip some of the better teams in the regular season. If you played everybody, there would be about seven brutal series.

Our biggest weakness is pitching. To start this year our pitching coach Rocha was out getting cancer treatments. And our pitching suffered. She came back around 6 weeks ago and its improved. Not sure if we have the pitching to win it all but everything else is in place.


Guachino has been night and day since Rocha came back, and Parker has showed signs of being really good as well. The good news is that OU's pitchers are not worn out like last year, poor Landry had 170 IP by this time. Right now Lowry has barely passed 100 IP.

I remember when everyone said the only reason OU was good in softball and gymnastics was because they played in the Big 12. Now here we are first 2 years in the sec and about have conference titles in both sports their first 2 years.


I'm old enough to remember when Mizzou joined the SEC and went to back to back SEC championship football games.

I can't seem to find where Missouri was back to back SEC champs anywhere.

Wish I had known, gave my tickets for the weekend to a family friend so their kid at UK now could go. I miss "the Cliff" and this new crap they have planned will just be for the $$ and not for the fans.

Nebraska is good but maybe hasn’t been tested like SEC teams.

Oklahoma has played 13 games against ranked opponents since March 27.

Nebraska has played 3. Back on March 27-29. The Cornhuskers haven’t played a ranked opponent in a month.

Don’t get me wrong with Jordy pitching Neb is going to compete. But had they played SEC schedule I doubt they rank as high

We are one of the best teams in the country... which puts us middle of the pack in the SEC. We have a silly amount of talent in this conference.


Tennessee started the season, before conference play, 26-0 including wins over Jordy Bahl and Nebraska, Oregon, 11-0 over Ucla, and 9-1 over Florida State then hit a brick wall once confrence play started.

Oh yeah, I see now that the Austin forecast looks nearly identical to CSB. Fun. Outdoor spring sports....it can't be totally avoided.

Gasso said in her pregame interview that it was looking like no chance of a game Friday, (which we're all in agreement about, it seems). And probably trying to get 2 in on Saturday.

OU-A&M has now been suspended for tonight, so I assume they'll try to get those remaining 1.2 innings from game one plus the final two games in on Saturday now. That could be a lot of softball if both teams get to scoring like they can.

Neither of these teams will be playing the opening round of the SEC tournament on Tuesday, nor would Texas or Arkansas, I assume, so maybe they could stay for a Sunday game if necessary.
