  • Softball; Because It's Bigger

    Oklahoma beat Clemson 9-2 at Marita Hynes Field to tie the NCAA record for longest winning streak at 47 and moving the Sooners a win-away from their seventh consecutive Women's College World Series appearance.
    The victory tied the Sooners with 1996-97 Arizona for the longest winning streak in NCAA history.
    A bad cause requires many words.

    That streak is in trouble right now. Their 4-0 lead in the 4th is now a 7-4 deficit after 5.

    Edit: Also, they just said it was Clemson's fourth year as a program. I thought I misheard it, but after looking it up, that's exactly what they said. First year as a program was the Covid season so they got in about 25 games before it was canceled and then immediately found success the next year going 44-8 and making the NCAA tournament. They've made Super Regionals the last two years, so a as a program they've made the tournament every year they've been able to qualify.

      Wow, OU was down 7-4 with a runner on first, two outs. Bloop single to right with two strikes puts runners on first and second. Next batter is down 0-2 and hits a three run homer to tie it up at 7. Clemson can still take it here in the bottom of the 7th, but for now the streak is alive.

        OU survives in extras, wins 9-8 in 9 innings. Now hold the record at 48 straight wins and advance to the World Series.

            Don't spoil it for me, watching my Texas girls in their second game right now. Lost the first one, need to win this one to stay alive, not starting off very well.

            Started following Texas after their coach Mike White left Oregon for them. Oregon already eliminated.

            My other team, Florida State already punched their ticket.

            Despise Oklahoma with a passion. Them, and UCLA.

                Cinderella didn’t even make it to the dance. Zero non-seeded teams in the World Series.

                  Like to see Stanford win it. Doubt it could happen but we'll see. The coach there used to be at Minnesota and was a mentor to one of my daughter's softball coaches. She's a great person. I wish her alma mater had never come calling and she was still here. Our current coach deserved her shot though and did some clinic work with my daughter so I have a lot of respect for her as well.

                    Outta that group, the only ones I can stomach are You-Dub and Northeastern.

                    Neither will make it far.

                            Yeah, I think that's the case.

                              That was a helluva game. No shame in losing to Jordy Bahl. She's a sophomore with a 2 year record of 40-2 with a ERA hovering around 1.
