Probably doctored bats or some other outside of the rules advantage. They have already been caught doctoring baseballs.


quote:

The Incident: During Georgia’s 5-4 win over the top-ranked Aggies, fan and broadcast videos caught Mracna repeatedly reaching behind a post in the bullpen to scrape an unknown substance. He then applied it to his glove, resulting in noticeably stickier fingers.

The Suspicion: Once on the mound, he touched the thumb area of his glove before throwing. He struck out six batters in a row, throwing extra spin-rate pitches.

The Reaction: Texas A&M coach Jim Schlossnagle stated that it "certainly appears that way." However, college umpires do not routinely check pitchers for foreign substances, and since the umpires did not catch it in the moment, no penalties or ejections were issued.

Wait. So one incident that clearly was on video tape, yet nothing was done about it is your proof?

Didn't Alabama have a coach passing on information to a bettor about games? And that is not speculation but proven?

Yeah...so? He was cheating, was he not? Isn't that what you are claiming about a Georgia pitcher from two years ago that is no longer on the team?

sounds like we werent' caught at all. This was nothing more than a conspiracy theory by some weaponized autists online over examining a video that proves nothing.

Bama coach betting against his own team really gave us a competitive advantage.

Is it against the rules, or not? And just for the record, he was passing on inside information to other bettors. He was doing it for personal gain....not a good look.

I heard one of the arse whipes announcers say the very reason Georgia bats so well is because of all the trees that border the whole outfield walks
Not because of the band box size home field.

Long ago except for Tiger games I mute most all games.

I’ve said it a few times that the right corner is the only short part of Foley field. Alex Box is more symmetrical. They are both about the same size. The way the wind blows probably effects the ball more than anything in any park unless you get really high in elevation. More importantly I think y’all just hit the ball very well.
