Emotions are high. It will settle. My strategy would be to come in as a last minute buyer.

Keep in mind that the graphic and Texker's post both list the game times in EST. Locally, start times are 5pm Friday and 4:00 Saturday.

Good point. I just copy/pasted from the referenced site.

12th Man doesn't have any tickets. We are going to have to use the secondary markets.


I've gotten reasonably good tickets at reasonable prices - especially last year to watch games there in Austin.
Fans for the most part have been good with the only exception being someone tearing up one of my Aggie stickers in my truck.
Wooahhhh

Texas has a deeper pitching staff than we do, but Emiley Kennedy and this team can get it done.

Keep the good defense and pitching that we had this weekend and we've got a shot. Ford has the girls playing well.

I like that it's a game a day. Weather should be hot but good otherwise.

Too bad that put a Super at a low capacity inferior facility like this.

If Kennedy and the defense that was brought this past weekend comes to play this coming weekend then the games should be within striking distance. If the complete team that came to play Sunday shows up this coming weekend, we might have a shot at snagging a win and pushing it to the IF game.

This series will probably come down to the Aggie offense being able to get hits. Cotrill, Hill, Enright, Cannon. They've got to get it going. We've never been just blown out, but you can go look at most of the losses this year and it's typically our multiple big bats going 0 for that causes them.

more tickets are starting to trickle onto seat geek. Prices are high right now but should drop every day between now and Friday.

Koko has had some good at bats in key situations lately. Plus she has the speed to give the t.u. defense fits.

Like you said, let's have a couple of complete games with everyone clicking.

I like our chances, especially if we can work Morgan and Cavan. Just make them work to get their outs…

I am late to the celebration party, but heartiest congratulation to the coaches and players for winning the Regional title! It has been a very, very good year, and greater moments and honors remain within reach. Good luck and BTHOtu!

Aggies winning all over! Congrats Aggies!

I didn't mention Koko because she seems pretty dialed in right now at the plate.

I mentioned those other players because they're scattered through the lineup and account for about 75% of our total RBI this year. When those players falter at the plate, it makes it really tough to have to count on slappers to drive in runs.

I hope those prices come down. $100-$200 on SeatGeek.

I took my wife and two girls to watch them beat Texas State last year in the Austin regional and had a blast!

Probably much the regional. Season ticket holders didn't get tickets until Tuesday to be able to sell them. Those listed now are likely listed by their athletic department

Not happy with the seeding , but my compliments that they have real dirt and grass. Most impressive.

Does their field have real grass? Or plastic grass like the men's field?

From last year.

Dirt is real

Dirt and grass.

But no breeze blows in the stands. The way it is built wind seems to be blocked on all sides. This time of year it is very hot place to watch a game.

All seats have a great view though. Never sat in the outfield stands but no bad seats in main stadium

It was really cool seeing the bullpen and the pitchers warming up. The ramps circle the bullpen.

I can still hear the snap of the ball hitting the glove. Good times.

Just a talking head on the NCAA site, but she "reranked" the teams heading into the Super Regionals and has A&M at No.12 ahead of Alabama, Georgia, and the two unseeded teams (Arizona and Baylor).

12. Texas A&M (16)

Texas A&M is bumped up to No. 12 after leaving College Station with a run-rule win on Sunday against Texas State. The Aggies impressed in their highly-anticipated in-state matchup in that regional clincher.

So pretty much where I had them on Selection Sunday except I also had them above FSU which I will still have them above.

But doesn't matter. They have one more chance to beat top team on the road. The difference this time is they will have less pressure. They aren't expected to win. Hopefully they can find a way to take game one and increase the pressure on Texas.

I agree. Pressure all on them. Hopefully we come out loose with nothing to lose attitude. We have the team to do it, just need to put it all together. Kennedy looked sharp last game.

Yep. Winning game one would make tsip heads explode and pump our girls full of confidence. BTHOtu!

3 super regional game ones in the books

OU run rules FSU 11-3
UCLA run rules Georgia 8-0
Florida beat Baylor 4-2

Some host will get beat in game 1. Hopefully in Austin
