[QUOTE="NNM, post: 2418672, member: 1772"] Please don't turn my speculation that it is possible that MT starts game 1 into a discussion about Lodolo. I did not make the "ridiculous Lodolo comment" attributed to me. In no way, shape, or form am I suggesting (or have I suggested) Lodolo start game 1. He's a freshman, he's been off for 2 weeks, he's never been to Omaha (at least, as an NCAA player). All I was saying is that it is an embarrassment of riches to have a guy with that talent sitting through regional and super. That was the right thing to do. He is not the game 1 starter. Amen and amen. I agree with all of your theory. All I'm saying is that it is possible (not probable) that MT leads out of the chute. He's pitched well enough in the last two starts to look like the ace we thought we had before the season started. Schloss and Saarloos know him and trust him. They know if it's just a matter of inferior competition, or if they think he's really a 1b guy, not a No. 3 guy. If they think he's pitching like a 1b pitcher, and the matchup is favorable, he just might get the nod. With all that said, I think JJ probably starts game 1. He's been excellent, and excellently consistent. And I love me some BH, especially on the big stage. But I don't think he goes game 1. Not necessarily. TCU is in the field and we have been assured that TCU is average at best. ;) [/QUOTE]
Verification
Which team did TCU defeat in the College Football Playoffs?
