Yesterday at the firehouse, I definitely let that slip. I did watch USA soccer crush Canada for so.e concacaf tournament. They look very good. Need to get to Europe or south America and start playing top 10 teams more often. Well there ya go.. you went the soccer route yesterday (and respectfully, not something I'll ever watch unless IU is in some sort of a big game). Tenn vs Stanford at 2pm today. Wake vs LSU tonight.

5 championships Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 I’ve been watching…fantastic games…Wake and Florida are definitely the 2 best…the pitcher from Florida is incredible. Tennessee might be able to jump back in since they have deepest pitching. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not chastising.. but it is interesting to me. Not you obviously, but there are quite a few of these dudes here that ONLY sport is Indiana Basketball. Like thats it. Haven't watched an inning of the CWS because I have little interest on college baseball outside of IU. All of my attention when it comes to baseball is watching the Reds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it is more more weird than you don't watch soccer unless it is IU. College basketball and the NFL are the only sports I will sit down and watch a y game that is on. The other ones I will watch a few minutes here or there but not the whole game. I barely watched any of the NBA playoffs because I have lossed interest in the NBA except for the Pacers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why would me not watching soccer, unless the school that I have a degree from, is in the playoffs? "Why's it weird?" Because you are a baseball fan and don't watch really good baseball/epic matchups. "Weird to me" is what I meant to say. Either way it's just conversation. I find it interesting.

I don't watch soccer either but why say it is weird for me to not watch college baseball is. I don't really know who the players are because they don't really promote the game very well. Following recruiting is harder for baseball than the other sports. The only time I remember watching the CWS was the summer we finally got cable. It was a good year because I saw Will Clarke and Raphael Palmero play for Miss. St Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like you are some freak for not watching it lol I get the recruiting aspect and all that. I'm not really explaining myself well. Either way, CWS has been good, and the Reds are hot. I'm good with both. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might watch an inning here and there and watch the 9th inning but not the whole game. The main problem with baseball you barely see any regular season games so you don't know the players. I can watch more OVC games in college basketball than I can see power conference teams in baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanford ran 1st rd Chase Dollander in the 4th, Tennessee has now ran Stanford Ace Quinn Matthews in the 5th... It was 4-0 Stanford, now 4-4 B5.

landrus13 Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 The Vols survived!! Now they gotta face LSU again but at least it won't be against Skenes. LSU and Wake was a GREAT game. Pitchers duel and it didn't disappoint. Two elimination games today with the nightcap being another rematch. Vols have the pitching advantage today and they're the "home" team on the scoreboard today. Hopefully the Vols can hold off elimination another day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UT had Beam throwing today on extended rest.... he could throw 90-110 pitches easy... Tennessee is better set up to win this game, we'll see if they execute well enough.

None of our studs are draft eligible/Glasser might be better off not being drafted.. he can sign with the team of his choosing. Next season we will have several drafted.

Nice little feather in Glant's cap. Sinnard, Kraft, Foley, Holderfield all draft eligible next year.
