Agreed.  Jacob kind of got off to a slow start at the plate.  Big Time College Baseball jitters, I guess.  A few more 2 for 4's and he's right back on track.  Go for it, Jacob.

If he plays as well as he did last year, who knows, might be getting drafted at descent spot.

[PhatMack19]

UT lost the first game to #2 Stanford 7-2.  Felts was 0-2 with a Walk.  Bellow was 0-3 with a walk

Stanford won game 2.  Felts was 0-3 with a BB.  Bellow DNP

UT is now 2-4 on the year with Game 3 about to get under way

[PhatMack19]

Stanford won game 3 by a score of 15-1 to sweep the series.  Felts was 0-2


Not the start the Longhorns were looking for

[Steven Avery]

Looking at the stats from the season as a whole, the Horns can not hit once again. I do not understand why augie does not recruit more big hitters. Small ball is fine but you also need some studs in the lineup.  Next up I see they play HBU which appears to be better this year.

HOOK EM !  ;D

[Steven Avery]

0-0 going to bottom of 7 in austin

[Steven Avery]

2-0 Horns top of 8, stat tracker just updated

[Steven Avery]

Final UT 2- HBU 0...Horns scored on a safety squeeze and 0-2 count sac fly. Huskies Dalton Schaefer goes 8 innings with only 2runs allowed. UT threw the staff each an inning or two and all pitched well. Well played game, no errors on either side.

Felts 1-2, Bellow 0-2

The Horns pick up the win, but are still lacking on the offensive end.

[PhatMack19]

UT started off the Houston College Classic with a nice win over #4 Rice to give them their only loss so far this year by a score of 11-8.  Felts was 1-3 with 2 runs and a rbi

Tennessee(aka the real UT  ;D) beat the Horns in the 2nd game by a score of 5-4.  Felts was 2-3 with 2 runs and a rbi.

#7 Arkansas defeated Texas by a score of 7-3 in their final game of the tourney.  Bellow was 1-4 with an rbi and Felts finished 0-4.

#18 Texas is off to a slow start with a 4-7 record and will probably drop out of the rankings this week. They have played a really tough schedule so far which will only make them better at the end of the season.  If they can get it figured out offensively, they should be fine for conference.

I bleed Orange. Honestly, this year's team doesn't look very strong to me.
Hope I'm wrong.

Saw parts of two games this weekend. They just do not have enough vertran pitching to match their lack of hitting. In the past they could win a game 2-0 or 3-2. Just not that type of team this year.

Tx Tech is a legit contender in the Big XII. Solid pitching and the top of their order is loaded with speed.

Usually known for a strong pen, is that the case this year or just not being productive offensively?

No offensive production....I agree with Pats, this team doesn't seem to have the pitching depth to suceed at small ball like they usually do..I am not impressed with the Horns at all.  :( :( :(

They have some quality freshmen arms like French, Curtiss and Peters, but they have a ways to go right now.  French has pitched in 8 of their 11 games out of the pen.

They are just not there right now. Not saying they will not get there, but it's not looking good.

Knebel is the only UT pitcher with an ERA under 3 (1.29 in 7 app)
