This was huge. Cats are still projected to be in the tournament and this series helps that. Crazy to think a team with a conference losing record could be projected in but the SEC is that good. Cats host the Cards Tuesday and then a home series with South Carolina who is 23-18 (4-14 SEC).

[Bluecat]

How about that for a statement win by the Cats 17-5 in 7. Should have won the first meeting but took care of business tonight.

Rolling now. Really need to win at least two of the three at home against South Carolina this weekend. The SEC is so strong, I feel like we can compete in any regional we get placed in for the NCAA tournament, nobody from another conference is gonna scare us.

[Van Hagar]

Another good weekend for the Cats, took 2-of-3 from South Carolina. Should definitely make the NCAA tournament barring a total collapse over the final three weeks. Have a road game against a really good Western team Tuesday, then head to StarkVegas to face a Mississippi St. team this coming weekend that is behind them in the SEC standings. Another series win on the road would be huge.

[Bluecat]

Picking up another series win, first home series win of the season is huge. SEC is a gauntlet and other than Missouri gonna be tough. Earlier this season I didn't think they had a shot at making tournament but now I feel they will. Once in, you never know, Go Cats!

Need to bounce back after losing to WKU. Series in Starkville starts today. Be huge to win another series.

[Van Hagar]

Lost both ends of a doubleheader at Miss. St. yesterday. Led first game 3-0, but gave up eight in the sixth and lost 14~4. Then lost 6-5 in 11 innings in second game. Three straight losses now, desperately need to win the series finale today in Starkville.

[Bluecat]

Got swept. Not good this late in the season. Don't know how it affects their status of the tournament now but they really need to finish strong.

[Bluecat]

The last regular season series for the Cats against Oklahoma. Not sure how sound the cats are in the tournament but a series win this weekend would be huge.

[Van Hagar]

Big win in the series opener for UK, 4-3. This is actually the last home series, we still have to go to Vandy next weekend. I think a couple more conference wins should definitely be enough to get into the tournament.

[Bluecat]

Yea I was a week ahead lol. Big series win winning the first two against Oklahoma.

[Van Hagar]

Cats get the sweep of the 14th-ranked Sooners. UK now 28-20, with 13 conference wins. On the ESPN broadcast Saturday, they said UK was on the bubble, hopefully this gets us off. Have a midweek game with Northern Kentucky Tuesday (we’ve lost a few too many midweek games this year) then at Vandy next weekend. Beat NKU and win at least one in Nashville and you’ve got 30 wins and 14 conference wins, surely that’s enough to get an SEC team in.

[Bluecat]

If we miss the tournament I think we can look at the non-conference losses. We have some head scratchers there. However, like you said if we beat NKU and get 1 or win the Vandy series we should be good. Add a win or two in the SEC tournament and I like our chances.

[Bluecat]

One strike away from winning game 1 of the series, to end up losing on a walk-off HR. Need to bounce back and get the win today and win the series tomorrow.

[Van Hagar]

We did show some grit and bounce back by scoring three in the ninth to take an 8-7 lead in game 2……only to have Vandy, for the second day in a row!!! hit another walk-off homer, this one a two-run shot with one out. Un-freaking-believable. I really thought we only needed one win this weekend to ensure our spot in the NCAA tournament, just not sure how much fight will be left in us for the final game after the way the first two have ended.
