Not being greedy, but ...
...I wonder how many more games we would have won with above average middle relief pitching?

Re: Not being greedy, but ...
Well, if my memory is correct, at least three more: the middle game against A&M, the final game against Arkansas, and the midweek game against Austin Peay.3rdFloorDyer wrote: ↑Wed Jul 17, 2019 6:31 pm ...I wonder how many more games we would have won with above average middle relief pitching?

Re: Not being greedy, but ...
With the maximum increase in wins being 12, the number you are asking about can't be very high. My guess is the game that caused Coach Corbin to recommend that he be fired (the Sunday Arkansas game) plus 2 or 3 more.3rdFloorDyer wrote: ↑Wed Jul 17, 2019 6:31 pm ...I wonder how many more games we would have won with above average middle relief pitching?

Re: Not being greedy, but ...
I literally woke up this morning thinking about something like this, and how close Vandy was to finishing with an even more incredible number of losses in the single digits. The most egregious, as others have stated, were Austin Peay, A&M game 2, Arkansas game 3, and perhaps Tennessee game 3.
