I sure am excited about this series. If we keep playing like we have, we will prove to everyone just how good this team really is. I mean we made #5 in the polls, but I still hear media talk like we are not ready for this tough SEC competition. Winning this series will also put us real close to winning the SEC East. I know we got to do it again against UF next week but we get them here at home.

We finally have a competitive baseball team to talk about again. It's nice.
 
I really thought he had is hand on the bag. Can't believe the replay called him out when the ref right there called him safe.
 
Yardcocks with the 14-6 win in Game 1.
