we are on the fringe of getting a national seed and a regional, we need to finish strong

That sweep of Baylor was huge!

11th in the USA Today poll

As big as the Baylor sweep was, our next 6 games leading up to the OSU series are big.

Tomorrow @ #12 Arkansas
Home series vs Kansas
Next Monday vs Southern Utah
Next Tuesday @ UT Arlington

If we can win those 6 games going into the OSU series, things could be looking up for a regional and a super regional.

I just don't understand how a road sweep at a top 10 teams home gets you one spot. I think this will be an uphill battle all the way to Omaha.

Alls I know is that I want Texas at the Brick baad. After watching the filthy whorns come back last year in the Big-12 tournament I was sick for a week. And how the hell did KSU do what they did in Austin? Against us, the UT pitchers couldn't do any wrong.

Alls I know is that I want *Texas* at the Brick baad. After watching the filthy w*horns* come back last year in the Big-12 tournament I was sick for a week. And how the hell did KSU do what they did in Austin? Against us, the UT pitchers couldn't do any wrong.

I was thinking the same thing. We took 2 of 3 in Manhattan, Texas' pitching staff makes us look ridiculous all weekend, and then goes and gets lit up the next weekend. It looks like the intensity of OU/w*horns* isn't confined to football. It sure looks like they really got up for us. I cant stand losing to them in baseball, we haven't won a series in a while, and last year at the big12 I died alittle inside. I want them again bad. Part of me thinks that they are in our heads alittle, and that when we play them we start trying to hard, instead of just going out and playing, we start pressing knowing it's the *horns*.

Lets hope Baylor takes 2 of 3 from them this weekend!

Nice, thanks for the post!

Rivals latest has a host (Minn, OrSt, MoSt) paired with #5 Arkansas.

None of those are bad draws for us. Unfortunately, the stadium size issue with Arkansas means that the NCAA will try to put as many games as they can justify in Fayetteville.
