Well, Sooners took it on the chin, 7-2, forcing the rubber match, winner take all game, tomorrow. I have a feeling they will NEED to score a bunch of runs to win tomorrow. 2 just won't get it done. We'll see what happens.
I am super proud of this team! They just keep coming through when it seems like they have no chance. This was a team that midway through conference didn't look they would make the Big 12 Tourney, and then didn't look like they would make the NCAA Tournament, but ended up winning the Big 12 tourney to make it to regionals. After losing to Florida yesterday, some people thought they didn't have a chance today, and it didn't look good when they were down 3-0 going into the 8th inning. And then Sooner Magic happened. I feel so good for these guys, especially the guys on this team back in 2020, whose season was ended by Covid, when they had a pretty stellar squad. I sure hope they can take 2 out of 3 from VT, and make it to Omaha, and keep their crazy season going. And if they don't, we should all still be really proud of what they accomplished. These guys never quit, and have made Sooner Nation proud.
And once again this team wins and advances. Great pitching by Cade Horton and the bullpen. VT's 2 hits were in the first inning, and after that nothing. And the Sooner offense was on point. 5 bombs, and scored in every inning but the second and third. Tredaway was incredible, and that catch by Pettis in left was awesome. Gaggie better be ready for a battle in the first game of the CWS, because the Storm from Norman is coming at 'em. Boomer Sooner!
