Baseball on TV tonight

6:30 Central on ESPN U.

Yes, the season has been disappointing so far but consider: In our first four SEC series we have played nationally ranked #1 Arky, #3 A&M, #4 Tenn and #7 Vandy. There isn't another team in the country that has had to run such a gauntlet. Now #8 Kentucky comes in.  Lets don't lose heart, there are better days ahead.

Coach Thompson is the right guy for Auburn. He can and will do better in coming weeks. He has had our Tigers in two of the last four College World Series. That's equivalent to basketball's "Elite Eight". Very impressive for a school who has no scholarship money from gambling, which many other SEC schools enjoy.

Great points Mikey!

At some point the state of Alabama has to address this inequity. I keep thinking because it hurts bama they will. So far not even hurting bama has helped with gambling money.

I think AU will end up right at .500 in conference play, if not a game or so above. Butch will right the ship and get the Tigers playing winning baseball in the coming weeks.

It will have to pass the voting public and I'm not sure enough of the public knows to make the connection.

AU just tied UK in the Bottom 4th.  Going to Top 5.   AU 4.  UK 4

According to some, it’s not good enough.

Sad but true.

That two-run error on a routine grounder at 3rd base was a killer. Stuff like that keeps happening to this team. "Snakebit" is a term that seems to apply. All a team can do is shake it off and come back today expecting better things.
