This is a good game. Both teams look good. Amazing that one has to go home.

Vandy has done a great job getting double plays. I think they have 3 this game alone.

Chafin has to be about done. I doubt his PC has been this high very often.

And a lot of "experts" are saying this is a must win from a regionals perspective as well as an SEC Tourney one. Very important

Vandy is safely in the NCAAs. A&M would like this one to get off the bubble.

Great 2-out bunt to put A&M up 3-1.

I am no expect, but this feels like a win A&M needs to feel safe. It may or may not be the difference. 13-18 in conference shouldn't be good enough to get in.

Which is strange because A&M has a better record and RPI.

Finished sixth in the western division at 13-17 and only won three SEC series (LSU, Alabama and @State)

2-7 final three series vs Florida, Arkansas, South Carolina

11-15 vs top 50

I am well aware. We have plenty of warts.

Vandy lost 2/3 in a tourney in Houston, got swept by UF & Auburn, lost series to both Mizzou & USC, and dropped 7 mid week games including 267th Belmont, 186th East Tenn, 172nd Lipscomb, 149th Middle Tenn.

Winning 3 more games in conference seems to hold a lot of weight.

Big double play. Heading tot he 9th inning.

Ags lead 3-1. I wouldn't be mad if we added an insurance run or two.

A bonus is that we can probably bring Hoffman back out for the 9th. He's only thrown 21 pitches through 2 innings.

In the SEC, 3 more conference wins is huge. Vandy sweeping UK last weekend instead of just winning the series has appeared to make all the difference for the NCAAs. 15-15 coming into today would have likely made this a near must-win game for Vandy.

To get in? Sure, but there have been plenty of 15, 14, and even 13 win teams get in too.

16 is the NCAAT lock number, no sweating.
