BOL Round Table

I'm going to go with golf because I think we are clearly the best team in the country. We are the two seed in softball.

Men's golf.

I'm going to say both! ;-) If we keep hitting the J-train will be hard to beat.

Last time I checked Coach Murphy doesn't take the field in the WCWS. He doesn't hit, pitch, field, or any of the things that actually end up winning games. Has there been some moves we could question? You bet. But all teams have those. When they work out, its genius. When they don't - its well below genius (g). Still, to put it squarely on Coach Murphy is not where the issue completely lies. I know, in sports that's what we do when a coach and a team gets close several times and doesn't win. We as fans automatically say the coach can't get it done. He chokes.

To be fair - we have not been the favorite in any of the years we made it to the WCWS. We were the favorite and 1 seed the year we lost in the Super's to Hawaii so if we won't to blame that one on him, fine. Not what I would do but that's why we all have opinions. Still, not winning it all yet is in no way saying Coach Patrick Murphy chokes.

I hope we win both but its going to be very tough to win them both. Softball especially because there are a few teams at least playing as well as we are. OU is clicking and pitching lights out with Ricketts. If Cal survives and advances, they are the fav. And ASU will be a force as well. Still, this is a great chance for BAMA softball and hopefully we get it done - for BAMA - and to get the monkey off the SEC with the first softball Championship....even that isn't totally fair with how long our teams have truly been competitive vs how long the Pac zillion has been but its still a stat until someone does it. Why Not BAMA?

If you want to talk about who has done the "choking"... It is not CPM... Look towards the circle. You're getting warmer...
