Tech v Duke

[GTNavyNuke]

It's hard to beat a team all 4 times in a season. Let's hope we can beat Duke again.

UVa just lost to MD 6-7. Uuuggghhh. It would be ugly for MD to win the ACC on the way out the door.

Our RPI went from 39 to 34 after beating Miami...... http://www.boydsworld.com/baseball/rpi/currentrpi.html

Can someone clarify why we're the "home" team in this game? Is it just a coin toss? I thought it was based on seeding..

Duke has a hit and a stolen base with one out already. We're in the top of the 1st.

Let's do this thing.

Duke gets a runner to third but that's all.

GT up to bat now.

Lower seed team has won 4 of 6 games so far. Only 2 "normal" games involved UNC, beating NCSt & losing to FSU.

Let's keep the trend going.

Middle of 5, pukies up 2-0 off 2 HRs

%-+%$!!

Somebody needs to tell our team that Duke is a top 10 team.

Anyway, when you run the ISR numbers from Boyds World, we are only 56% likely to win. So beating Duke 4 times in a season would be very fortunate. (I know that today is independent of the other three which are in the bag, just saying.)

Almost done changing the transmission oil in my lawn tractor. We gotta stop screwing around so I can enjoy some beer.

0-4 on the third Duke HR. Time to stop f'ing around.

Roberts has sucked in relief.

We're getting out hit 9-3 so no reason to complain, we are just not hitting.

 

[SwarmArmy]

We need to get into their BP. Van Orten is pitching well..

 

[SwarmArmy]

We're not a HR team, but we can still win this if we can get Van Orten off the mound.

 

[SwarmArmy]

Only 3 hits today after 28 hits in the past 2 days.

 

[GTNavyNuke]

We have to win tomorrow. Hope Miami beats Duke. End of discussion.

Our D needs to improve against HRs. (tic)

If we win tomorrow and Miami beats both Syracuse and Duke, do we advance?

 

[GTNavyNuke]

If we win tomorrow, we are 2-1. If Duke loses to Miami, they are 1-2. So we beat Duke.

We then beat Miami and Clemson on head to head. But we have to beat Clemson. Since Clemson is a better team, we have a better chance. (tic)

Syracuse is a great place to vacation in the summer, but they aren't playing.

Thanks, brainfart, I meant CU

Thanks, brainfart, I meant CU

I'd rather go to Syracuse than Clemson!

We lose 0-6. 4 hits, whoppee.

Tomorrow is the big game. That's why Hall didn't throw in our best relievers when we were down. Sucks, but life goes on. Time to put the lawn tractor back together.

 

[Stinger90]

WTF !

I should've gone to the game today (jinx) After what we've done..we lose to freaking Duke?

Oh well, when we're good..we're good and when we're bad..we're terrible. Bad day at the office
