AU vs. The Unwashed

Snaggletiger · « **on:** March 05, 2012, 04:56:23 PM »

AU/Bama play their customary pre-conference game in Monkeytown Tuesday night. Better check my dates because I was wrong about Purdue. Neither of these teams are exactly tearing it up this year and AU comes in at 7-6. I admit I haven't watched an inning of Auburn baseball so far but from the write ups, it appears they're pretty competitive. A ton of new faces this year so it's hard to tell just what they've got.

After 13 games against a pretty decent schedule, the Tigahs have their first 6 batters in the line up all at .333 or better. Team is batting .324 overall. They don't hit a lot of long balls (5) but they do get on and steal a lot of bases. It looks like the starting pitching for the most part is fairly solid. With the exception of 2 games out in Tuscon against #8 Areyzoney, vitrtually all of their losses have been 1-2 run affairs. Don't know what that really says but I'm hoping they just need that little something or changing a little luck to put them over the top.

Anywho, here's to slapping the Tahd around tomorrow night.

We should definitely have more than 5 HR's then.

At least the balls' flight paths won't be affected by any banners.

Snaggle wins post of the year. I'm going to start posting football threads in the Culinary forum just to throw his Alzheimer's for a loop.

Now, thanks to Snag, the Auburn baseball will now hit a losing streak since he put them in the B-ball forum. Thanks pal.

Looks like yesterday was the wrong day to quit sniffing glue....and start doing meth. Next thing you know, I'll get Mike Dwyers name wrong too. By the way, is he out of Chizik's dog house?

We're gonna forget all about Dwyer when we see Dante Aymanmeat suit it up this fall.

I foresee a dynamic duo in that pair. How can you not be under the training of Eddie Gran?

I agree, but Lebo must go now. We don't need to wait until after the SEC tourney. And my goodness, if we even try to go with the spread, I am going to puke. It will never work under Tubs.

Never work at Auburn. Remember when that midget, Tommy Bowden, went 5-wide and effectively scrapped the run.

Exactly...Tommy Joe Eagles had 5 guards on the floor together.

Okay, let's get back on track. After all, this is the Football forum. I am so pumped about the Spring game and seeing what kind of defense Bryan Van Der Sloot has us running.
