"As loud as the ovations are for big 3s or for thunderous dunks, some of the biggest roars you hear at Mizzou Arena these days are for steals, shot clock violations, and forcing opponents into timeouts in their own backcourt. Just as Anderson has crafted himself a team built on defensive intensity, he's built himself a fan base that echoes that same value system." - RPT
Only Big 12 team!!!!!!!
Love the victory lap!!!!!!!

Only team from Big 12 to make WCWS
but you know, we’re trying to run away from the conference according to some hack in Tulsa.

Hmmm.
That’s certainly interesting. Not real sure, honestly. Obviously a move’s coming down the pike, but it may be as silly as Nelson Cruz returning to the 15-day DL for his hammy.

A.J. Pierzynski is still in the Sox lineup, so...

Gentry has been there since Friday.
"I'm pretty sure there's more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is."
oh yeah Stacey WhateverYourNameIs on ESPN
screw yourself…I heard you say you expected Oregon to take both games today…don’t backup and all of a sudden act like you called this game or something
I'm assuming that if we play Hawaii Thursday, there will be a game on Friday, possibly two.
What time will that/those game(s) be at?
It's a double elimination tournament..
So it depends on if we win or lose.
Annoying You Since 1986
But won't there be at least one game (or possibly two) games on Friday anyway?
Unless it doesn’t go like the regionals. I was thinking it would be:
Game 1 and Game 2 on Thursday. Games 3, 4, 5 on Friday. Game 6 or 7 (if necessary) on Saturday.
Game 1 On thursday.
Game 2 on Friday. If we win one and lose one, game 3 on saturday. We lose them both we are done. And win both and game 3 is sunday.

Isn’t until Saturday. So you may be in luck.
Annoying You Since 1986
Wait, scratch that.
If we lose our first game we dont play again until saturday. NVM
Annoying You Since 1986
Oh well, that kind of sucks but whatever.
I’ll still root for the Tigers to kick ass against Hawaii.
Yeah, they are the first game on Thursday.
The other two teams are the ASU-Florida winner and the UCLA vs UL-Lafayette winner.
And Tenn/Arizona.
Annoying You Since 1986
No, Tennesee is on the other side.
Our bracket is Mizzou, Hawaii, ASU/UF, UCLA/UF-Laf. The other bracket is already set, it’s Washington, Georgia, UofA, and Tennesee. Winner of each double-elimination bracket plays a best-of-3 series to determine the national champion.
A double-elimination quarterfinal, yes.

Yes, they do not reseed.
So we will be in the bracket with the teams that advance from the 1/4/5/8 regions.

SORRY i forgot a title, you can delete if you want.

Title doesn't really matter when it's not a picture.
Also, I don’t get the joke. Is that just a random minute number to say that Earleywine is fast and awesome, or does “26 minutes” mean something?
Title is only a big deal...
… when it comes to images that can slow down computers. No big deal if you don’t have one with text.

@Doug_Farrar: Vince Lombardi said, “Winning isn’t everything,” and stopped. Ehren Earleywine then insisted, “It’s the only thing”.
@RTaylorTX Friend’s submission: “Ehren Earleywine will determine the Big Ten’s timetable for expansion.” #EarleywineFacts
@Doug_Farrar Ehren Earleywine once hit a hole-in-one on a par-5. With a pitching wedge. #EarleywineFacts
@brian72975: Ehren Earleywine once hit a 7-run walkoff home run #EarleywineFacts
(just a few..)

Fun fact, by the way...
…Nicole Hudson’s home run ball is still rising.

am on my way back to The Chuck...
With some sub shop for the pregnant wife, but I just killed about 35 miles reading the threads. Well done everyone.
And thanks to Bill C, sleepy (who totally botched a foul ball attempt) and Positivity for coming out to the game and hanging.

Yeah, we haven't made enough of a big deal...
…out of the fact that Sleepy TOTALLY botched that foul ball.
