VU's next game is next Saturday or Sunday. Why would anyone other than Rocker start that game?

Not meaning to be a smart aleck, but am I missing something? Why wouldn't he?
Yes, Saturday, the first game I believe.

It's amazing to me that we had won our super before UT/LSU had even played a game.

Personally, I would NEVER be a smart-@zz on a sports forum.

Just not how I operate. 8-)

Bill, my apologies, I wasn't clear...I meant to say that I wasn't meaning to be a smart aleck, not you. I thought that by asking "what am I missing", I may have come across as being a smart a$$ when that was never my intent. Mea culpa...

Rocker game one.
Leiter game two.
Riley game three, with the bull pen ready.
Little game four.

Then back to Rocker and Leiter for the finals and come home with the trophy after those two.

I also would like to play Arkansas and score about 6 on Kopps. :twisted:

I looked at the bracket and haven't seen a confirmation of the Saturday game in Omaha yet. It would make sense that we'd play on that day, but I am trying to figure it out from the link you shared.

Ditto...no guaranty as far as I can tell as to which is bracket 1. Would make sense that Arkansas would be in bracket 1 but TV match ups might dictate. Just made reservations for the 1st weekend to at least guarantee to see the Vandyboys.

In the past the Fri-Sun Supers play the first day of the CWS, the Sat-Mon Supers play the 2nd day. I would assume it's the same this year, but I certainly know the dangers in assuming.

If we win our first two games the rotation could be:

Game 1 Saturday - Rocker
Game 2 Monday - Leiter
Game 3 Friday - Rocker

And if we win THAT game:

Game 4 Monday - Leiter
Game 5 Tuesday - Little or Reilly
Game 6 Wednesday (if necessary) - perhaps Rocker again
