And their basketball team basically had the Final Four gift wrapped for them this year. It's obvious the system is rigged in favor of certain teams. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They showed Auburn for about 2 seconds later in the broadcast in a screen shot with 4 teams' reactions, each team taking up a quarter of the screen. Typical treatment of Auburn. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlderWhiskey 998 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Wife and I noticed this also. Didn't see the team at any time. When they showed the 4-way screen for all the teams in Tallahassee, they simply showed an icon for Auburn. Didn't know this happened last year as well. I do suspect it's something that's happening on Auburn's end of things; either a techno-glitch or Auburn's choosing not to participate in this particular ritual.

I suppose it could be that Auburn's graduation was the previous Saturday and the team was scattered about the country. I can think of no other reason.

AUBwins 10,297 Posted May 14 Author Share Posted May 14 I think Dean has them watching together on the field. Like last year. Maybe that's why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Eagle 477 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Arkansas really choked in the regional they are hosting...only won 1 game, lost 2, and didn't even make it to the finals. Arkansas 3 - Southeast Missouri State 2 Arizona 2 - Arkansas 1 Villanova 7 - Arkansas 2 Arizona (no losses) and Villanova (1 loss, to Arizona) meet Sunday. Arizona needs 1 win to advance to the super regional while Villanova would need 2 wins. Go Wildcats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD1 249 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 (edited) Auburn is up 1-0 in the top of the fifth in Game 2. Packer is having a night! In the first game she hit for a single, double, and a triple. She finally got the HR for the lone score in the 2nd game. Update....Penta and Packer are the reason we're still alive. Penta had 21 strikeouts and Packer scored both of our runs.

Golden Eagle 477 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 (edited) Auburn beat UCF 2-1 in 12 innings...finishing at 3:00 am EDT. Thank you Makayla Packer and Maddie Penta! Ridiculous scheduling to start a game at 10:30 pm. I noticed that the Durham regional has its corresponding game scheduled for tomorrow today at noon (so no all nighters). Then, if their final matchup requires 2 games, the second one is scheduled for Monday. Auburn is at a real disadvantage later today not only because of our offensive struggles, but because the players won't have much time to rest. Pitching should be interesting since Maddie pitched all 12 innings tonight (224 pitches + 33 pitches in the Chattanooga game). Anyway, War Eagle! https://www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/story/sports/college/auburn/2024/05/19/tallahassee-regional-auburn-softball-score-ucf-chattanooga-fsu-mickey-dean/73733541007/ Edited May 19 by Golden Eagle Added link to article 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I know it's highly unlikely that we beat them two times, but I'm proud of the grit that the ladies showed yesterday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,297 Posted May 19 Author Share Posted May 19 Would love an offensive explosion in game 1 at least to end it early 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey 16,781 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 It's nice that Maddie has set all sorts of AU records, but we'd be a lot better off as a team if Dean had used some of those early season games against lesser competition to develop a third pitcher. Now we don't even have enough pitching to get through a four-team tournament. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might even help the offense, if they got into more situations where it was " Hit the ball, or lose to SW Dimwit St.". 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Eagle 477 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Just saw that they changed the start time of today's FSU - Auburn game to 6:00 pm EDT. Not sure the team will get much more sleep, but at least they should have a little more time to rest/rehab, eat, game plan, etc. Fingers crossed they come ready to play tonight!

South Carolina hit a grand slam in the top of the first inning to take a 4-0 lead. Game now headed to the bottom of the second with the score still 4-0.

AUBwins 10,297 Posted May 19 Author Share Posted May 19 No excuse for Arkansas. They were loaded to make a run. I thought they'd be a WCWS contender before Bri joined them. But in their case their offense is usually carrying them. Arky fans say that is Deifl ceiling. I would have loved her to start the season. Wondering if that really is her ceiling.

Golden Eagle 477 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Auburn vs FSU is underway with FSU batting first. Shelby Lowe pitching for Auburn. She made it through the top of the 1st unscathed...hoping she'll rise to the occasion this afternoon. Game will be on ACC network once the Duke - South Carolina game is over (in the top of the 7th, it's Duke 7 - South Carolina 1). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
