Interestingly look at scheduling:

Frogs have played 16 home games, 13 away, and 6 neutral

Whorns have played 24 home games, 11 away, and 3 neutral.

Tech has played 22 at home, 6 away, and 6 neutral. they are .500 away from Dan Law Field.
I do think it’s kind of funny how the Texas fans seem to think they have some really elite pitching and hitting but seem to gloss over the fact that they have played Baylor, OU, Kansas and KState

they do have a nice sweep of So Carolina but really that is their only impressive series

They might be great - but the rocky road is ahead of them not behind

They also quickly forget their 0 for Globe Life to start the season.

If they find a way to win 4 games over the next two weekends I’ll be impressed. Frogs just need to win the next two series (sweep would be a bonus) and not slip up in midweek to secure host and stay in the mix for a top 8.

Tech got hit with a couple HUGE injuries this past weekend. UT will be playing a significantly reduced Tech team, would expect a sweep or 2-1 at worst
Who got hurt? Assume Jung is one if they're HUGE as you say. Maybe an arm? That Tech roster has several HUGE pieces to it.

Birdsell (shoulder) and Neuse (back). Dru Baker has been nicked up too. And that's in addition to losing two of their better arms including potentially their Friday starter before the season started.

Definitely HUGE. Sounds like they have a Sommer school problem. Fire the trainer.

Stats through 04/18 (getting close to 2/3rds of the way through the regular season...some teams have already reached that point)
  • Frogs are 3rd in the country in walks drawn. Top 5 are Arkie, Tenn, Frogs, TTU, and Texas
  • Frogs are tied for 269th in sac bunts with three. TTU is also tied for 269th. Should be tied for 274th with two. The teams with the least amount are St. Bonaventure, St. Peter’s, San Diego State, and San Jose State. You’d think that those “saints” would be more willing to sacrifice. UT is 7th. Kansas is 10th. ULM (a future opponent) is 5th.
  • Frogs are 29th in team batting average. Only BU is higher among the conference opponents although OU and UT aren’t far behind.
  • Frogs are 78th in ERA. 54th in WHIP
  • Frogs are 35th in fielding percentage
  • Frogs are 16th in HRs with 45. Don’t see us threatening #1 Arkie with its 70.
  • Frogs are 5th in scoring with 8.4 runs per game
  • Frogs are 7th in steals with 73 against only 13 caught stealing (and probably half of those were pick-off’s)
  • Frogs are 12th in slugging percentage and 7th in on-base-percentage
