Can't challenge balls and strikes (even check swings)Zackdh9 said:
The strike 3 that would have ended the game… why wasn't it challenged? Genuinely curious

Ok then... Why the hell would you root for these Tennessee dbags?
I wasn't the only one confused by the wording of your post.
And almost everyone posting here tonight, besides you seemingly, wanted the Noles to win tonight.

Wow. Don't treat Charpie like that!
That's Charlie not Charpie
Total misread. LMAO
Just saw the highlights. That was a swing all the way.
Glad Vitello and the Vols won!

Yes, not even close. Home ump should have called it but he wanted no part of making that call.
I understand the FSU fan focus on that one particular ump call in the 9th, but when you had an 11-8 lead with 3 more outs to go (and an 11-7 lead with 6 more outs to go, and led 9-4 at the end of the 3rd and so forth) then a hell of a lot of other stuff happened once you got ahead that lost you that game.
They did.
But they also did enough to win. He made the pitch, he got the strike - and the swing. Shouldn't have to get 4 outs as punishment for struggling at the end against the #1 team in the country.

I really thought the check swing was borderline and could have seen it called either way.
That said, I think the check swing rules are really stupid and should be revised. Honestly I think like 80% of actual check swings should be strikes. If contact is made and the ball would be going into play, should be a strike imo.

I really don't see how that's 50/50, he went.
However, I'm mature enough to admit that I'm biased and that could color my opinion.
On the other hand, I'm immature enough that I don't care if I am, I hate the Vols. That swing went around and no amount of evidence is going to convince me otherwise, I'm irate.

Where we were sitting we had a perfect view down the plane of the swings. Guy totally went around. Tennessee had a big presence in the stands and their fans were going crazy.
Blue got caught up in the moment and chickened out of making the call.

And I watched on tv where they had perfectly angled cameras with slow motion replays….
His bat was pretty much perfectly perpendicular to his body. Isn't the ncaa rule it has to go past the hip/front of home plate? It was literally right to that point. Again, I've seen that called both ways and we'll see it called both ways (at all levels of baseball) until they fix the dumb check swing rules.
I don't like Tennessee or FSU so I don't feel bad or happy for either of them. I hope they both get bounced but as a college baseball fan, I thought that was strike 3.
I don't know what the formal rulebook rule is but I've watched enough college baseball all season to have seen enough check swings and have a good idea of what normally gets called and what normally doesn't get called. Kinda like the neighborhood play at 2nd base on a double play or a runner being in or out of the baseline. There are times it is called and everyone is suprised because it doesn't normally get called that way.
That's how I feel about this.

So if A&M lost that way. You would be cool with it?

Yes, it's a wonderfully, imperfect, maddening game and my life won't change one iota with a win or loss. I might gripe a bit, but I've watched way too much baseball to know it all evens out, sucks but it does.
Let me say it another way. Not one team will win or lose this championship without being both the beneficiary or victim of human error. That's again, why I love this game.

Afternoon game starting on ESPN2 due to soccer.
I guess we're rooting for UK?
WTH are there so many empty seats behind home plate on TV! This travesty must not stand! Force-feed jello shots to the people not showing up to use their tickets!

Why would that be?
Wolfpack 0 1 0
Wildcats 0 0 0
=============
M1
BB; F7; F7; single, runner on 1B to 2B; F9. 13 pitches.

No reason at all. They are SEC we like? I like the color blue? No idea.LB12Diamond said:Why would that be?TyHolden said:

WolfCall did not like that at bat.
Stupid choreographed antics by UK dugout
That poor pitcher had to throw so many pitches. Not Fair.LB12Diamond said:

It slowed the game down. (just ignore the fans in the park enjoyed the quality AB that lead to a double)
