Plus, Vandy has a pretty good pitching staff. Barely winning in extra innings can very easily be a product of facing good pitching. Good pitching always beats good hitting. Fortunately, we had good enough pitching in 2 of those games.
Is this who accepted your application and you tell people its The Cardinal? I have some bad news then....
I have to agree that this team is inconsistent. I see it in 2 areas: >The pitching staff is Jekyll & Hyde. This is the 1st yr in many yrs that you haven't had a lock down starter in the rotation. Can you remember another year where at week 9 of the SEC season the rotation was still being tweeked? >Fielding.......like a box of chocolates.......But this has been relatively typical of Tiger teams for a while now. Something Hanagrif pointed out this weekend that shocked me but I think lends itself to the inconsistency point. Is the Tigers longest winning streak since SEC play started is 4 games. Something I'm interested in seeing in the post-season is if the SEC is truly strong 8 deep or is it overrated. Of course, the NCAAs excellent job of pairing could destroy that.
