When is instant replay coming to college softball now?! Fundamentals though cost us this one. It reminded me of game 3 against oklahoma had some very uncommon errors at the wrong time.

I always hate to see an Auburn team lose, but what's worst is an Auburn team losing because of poor officiating. I can handle a legitimate loss, but this kind of loss in a crucial game just makes me sick. This happens too many times across the board in the SEC. They need to adapt a rule to use replay in softball to get the call right if they are not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same thought, but didn't get enough looks at it. Draper was within 6 feet of McCrackin. My guess is Draper could have caught it, but it looked like Crack had it; she had just caught one very like it; so no need perceived to call her off. But what happened after she dropped it? Still seems as though there should have been time to head off the winning run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jared52 4,354 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 The umps didn't cost AU the game, 2 errors did. I get as frustrated as anyone at bad calls, but you have to over come them. AU did until the last out. Umps gave UF 1 run, AU gave them 2. On to the next one knowing AU can beat UF the next two if they eliminate their own mistakes.

Mikey 16,603 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Serious error in RF in the 6th, but we got away with that one. Then two more in the bottom of the 7th. There's simply a limit to how many mistakes you can make late in a game when you're playing top-level competition. This team is not playing with a "been there, done that" attitude. They were very tight late in the game. Lets hope they got that out of their system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustache eagle 2,405 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 This may sound too negative at this point in the season but this team feels right on the edge between good and great ... unfortunately I'm not confident they ever get on the right side of that edge. I just don't think we've got that little something xtra. No doubt we are having a great season so far. Hope I misread it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may not follow as closely as many here though, so I was hesitant to say as much. Just seems to be a little something missing offensively. (Something like Carasone maybe.)

I started to write this comment a couple times over the last couple weeks and thought it might be premature but unfortunately I think we will struggle during the conference. They will be good but good in this conference may not be enough. hope when tourney time rolls around they find that extra little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot about Howard in my post, but not in my thought I was trying to relay. The importance of a good leadoff cannot be measured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
