That would be the ncaa weather guy.
So is your belief that he's a Texas fan? Because this delay is not what the NCAA or ESPN wanted.

Fair enough, but it was pretty obvious that the rain was causing control issues at the beginning of the inning.
100% agree. Bad break for MSU. Hard to pitch in the rain. But they weren't stopping it until there was lightning within 8 miles.

game would have been over if not for the COVID BS.

and yes, I do believe the NCAA will do everything they can to avoid an SEC final.

I don't think they care. I do know ESPN didn't want a rain delay. Destroys ratings.

Absolute bull****
I hate Texas as much as anyone. But I seriously doubt area lightning strikes are in the tank for Texas.
I guess there wasn't any lightning prior. The graph they showed earlier was covered in strikes

So NC State's covid issue wasn't part of the NCAA plan then? Because that sure helped Vandy.
No, it pushes three ratings boosters.aginlakeway said:TexasRebel said:you're playing checkers.aginlakeway said:TexasRebel said:

No. They want the weaker SEC division in the final to get beaten. (or the hamstrung underdog beats them early).Faustus said:
Wouldn't it have been easier to just let NC State play at full strength if the aim was to get rid of Vandy? Maybe the NCAA is too crafty for me here, and possibly for itself too should Vandy win again.
BREAKING: @NCStateBaseball will forfeit its bracket title game against @VandyBoys later today because of health and safety protocols.

I’m just stunned. Stunned. #Vandy is headed to the @NCAACWS finals and NC State’s season is over. https://t.co/yMYYOgsB3P
