Just unbelievable by all, but especially Burky. He has the biggest stones of possibly any pitcher we've had. That was a game where it seemed like the inevitable was coming, and he didn't even give them a sliver of hope. Pump all resources into Butch and this program. He does more with less than any coach in the country. That said, job ain't done. Natty or bust!!

Great win & series against a solid opponent.  Just goes to show you that Bruce Pearl was absolutely right about AU when he said:

Show me 2 coaches that have done more with less than Bruce and Butch.  Bruce gets the top guys now but the foundation wasn’t built on 5*s.  Most Auburn guys I listened to though Auburn could be a mid tier SEC team with post season aspirations but this is AUsome.  Lot of doubters after last season but Butch shows he’s a really good coach.   Hopefully the NIL will help level the playing field with some other SEC teams

Trying to figure out flights today. Hope I can make it Saturday. Anyone else going?

I can't make it, but if you haven't been to Omaha before, I suggest: Sullivan's Steakhouse: https://www.sullivanssteakhouse.com/omaha/ 

It's been a while since I was there but neither the food, service nor the scenery will disappoint. Buddy and I ate there and kept tossing "just one more" $10 bill on the table for her tip. Later on we figured we had tipped $80. It was worth it.

Lots of good steakhouses in Omaha lived there for a few years I would recommend Cascio's Steakhouse been there for over 65 years but Sullivans is very good as well. Like I said tons of good/great steakhouses there

I miss Judd too. I was told Butch told him Judd had a spot on the team, but the damage on both his shoulders to rehab and him having to do grad school was just a reason why he didn't want to come back.

Thanks for that info. I hope he's doing well. He was such a firecracker!

Apparently I've been told Edouard Julien is quite a firecracker in the minor leagues now. Someone that lived in the town he played minor league ball last year said he got in quite a few arguments with umpires over balls and strikes.

But yes I love his passion(even though it led to both shoulders being dislocated and more last year). I think he could have gone pro had that 2020 season not been cancelled and he not been injured in 2021. But alas.

Edouard Julien is a character for sure.  His parents and their Canadian flag were a fascinating addition to Auburn baseball also. Every year it's something fun.....this year it's been Sonny D and his walk-up song. 

Judd gave 100% every game. I hate that his injuries got in his way.
