You can't be a little pitcher anymore. The past few years every pitcher for every team is a big'un.

Check Karlyn Pickens out. She a freshman at UT and a pretty good pitcher. Bet she not 115lbsz

I will. TBH, I think the reason we're seeing so many big girl pitchers is that it's probably easier to get speed and power with extra weight on those underhand pitches. Throwing underhand and getting anything out of it is hard as hell.

OU was down to their last strike twice today, down 3 runs. But it’s just because they turned off the cheating button for a few innings to throw off the NCAA and softball community, then they turned the cheating button back on and the cheating cheaters cheated to another win.

Yeah she's the size softball pitchers used to be. Lately though every team has at least one really big girl pitching.

I just said the rest of us were playing for 2nd. I didn't accuse you of cheating but if you are please turn that cheat button off if we play.

I think he replied to the wrong person, read the thread a bit and you'll see.

Ah ok. Truthfully, I don't follow softball closely enough to know whether there's anything suspect going on or not. All I know is that OU's team has been unstoppable for a while and everyone expects them to win it all again. That happens in sports from time to time. I wouldn't take a team having a run of success as a reason to believe there were shenanigans. There has to be other stuff because dynasties and insane runs happen in sports often enough without overt cheating. Sometimes you just get lucky with either one or several special players or you get lucky with a coach or maybe you just get luck combined with talent in general.

Call me crazy but for some reason Estelle Czech (texas pitcher)’s delivery is so attractive to me. Just her body movement and that arm snap she does.

Good series Tennessee. Clearly the superior team from the beginning

Tough finish for Texas ever since they swept Ok State, but good nucleus of underclassmen coming back next year should make for another solid season

Definitely fun and thanks.

Our softball team has been doing really well the past couple of years and this one is probably the best one we've had (maybe ever) which sucks because well, OU.

OU leads off with a HR against Clemson. The world's most boring softball team. Already turned that game off, after one hitter. I don't know if they're all doped or what, but this team just sucks the air out of the room. So incredibly boring to watch.


Wow. Talk about a whiner melt. I bet you watched it didn’t you.

Softball is so unpopular its drawing more viewers than baseball. Show me where its bad for the sport. You are proof why people tune in, to watch if anyone can beat them.

What a special day:

Patty Gasso birthday. Her players got her an IHOP gift card lol, she loves IHOP. But they also got her a win.

Down 3 runs in last at bat and 2 strikes to boot. Boom, homerun all tied up.

48 game win streak, broke all time record held for a few decades

Last meangingful game in this stadium, had the person in attendence it was named after (Marita Hynes)

And about your other melt. I want to know how this false accusation works. Is it the whole team? Who gives it to them? How does a whole team keep it super secret. Do the transfers in get it. How do they keep the transfers out quiet. Do they buy on black market. (I played your silly game, now give your answers why you made false accusarions)

Some fans can’t accept and acknowledge hard work and great recruiting. Patty has coached OU for 29 years and it took a long time to build it to this big of a dynasty. She has run a clean program and anyone saying different is just sore losers who likely got participation awards as a kid.

Something else that drives her is faith. Did you notice how OU huddled together with Clemson after the game in prayer. Pretty cool stuff.

There is just a certain belief with this team that’s hard to describe. You see it in only championship-caliber teams. They always remain in the present. There is no hesitation. They’re fearless. Unafraid to lose. And they know they’re great. It’s honestly incredible to watch

A reporter said this:

“I asked Patty Gasso after the game about her team’s unwavering belief and how she has cultivated that in her program over the years.”

“Her answer is exactly why Oklahoma has had the success it’s had.”



For being so unpopular this trended after the game



This is who comes back next year (3 of 4 ace pitchers too)
