Bama comes back from a 6-1 deficit after 5 innings to beat the Vols 7-6. What character this team appears to have!!!  #+

They go to 12-5 in the SEC after guaranteeing taking this series, and 28-11 overall.

WOOOT

Tennessee must be sick!  :lol2: :lol2:

Well, you are there stealing their fish.  :lol:

Way to go guys

Any win over Tennessee is sweet

But to come from behind like this is a great confidence booster.

To lose one like this is a dagger in the heart of the Vols.

Thanks for updating us 2.

  :toast4:

We stayed until the end of the football game and my girls wanted to hit a few of the stores on the strip on the way out. By the time I got to the car and turned the radio on we were down 6-3 in the bottom of the 6th.

What a comeback!

We go for the sweep today. Going into today's game we have a one game lead over Florida for the overall SEC lead. We have a 2.5 game lead over Ole Miss in the West.

I've got family coming this afternoon. Will be out of pocket most of the rest of the day .  Someone please provide updates for the game

It's 2-1 UT. They are still batting in the 1st.

after just watching Payton lead the Vols band in that crappy song
rocky flop ?

because those bums finally beat us for once at football  ?  


TAKE EM' DOWN HARD !
THEN RUN UP IN THE STANDS AND SLAP THEIR MAMMA's !    >:(

After 2 innings, UT still up 2-1. Keller is pitching for Bama.

Bama fails to score in the top of the 3rd, but Wass doubled to extend his hitting streak to 14 games.

Smith hits a homerun with Overstreet aboard to put Bama up 3-2 in the top of the 4th.

Going to the 5th, Bama up 3-2.

Smith just hit another HR, again, with Overstreet on, to put Bama up 5-2 in the top of the 6th. Still nobody out.

Hughston triples to center, Vincent singles him in to make it 6-2. Still nobody out.

Way to go Bama

Thanks 2

Moore doubles to right to knock in Vincent and White. Bama up 8-2 with 2 outs in the 6th.

Wass lined out to end their half of the inning, and a big one it was. Going to the B6 with Bama up 8-2.

6 complete, still 8-2.

After 7, still 8-2.

8-3 Bama, but UT still batting in B8.

 :popcorn2:

8-4, and still no outs in B8.   :(

Eicholtz relieves Keller in the 8th. He gives up a double, balked, sending runner to 3rd. Next batter singles runner in and now a walk. 2 on and nobody out. 8-3. Hubbard relieving Eicholtz. Eicholtz has had a couple of tough relief appearances, his last 2 times out. 

Hubbard gives up a double. 8-4 now with runners on 1st and 2nd, still nobody out.

8-5 on a balk!   :o

Hubbard balks in a run and runner on 3rd. Next batter singles. Now 8-6. Bama pitching is blowing up.

8-6 on a single.  STILL nobody out!

Pitching?  We're serving!  :lol2:

Taylor Guilbeau relieves Hubbard. C'mon, Taylor, mow 'em down.  >:(

 :wall: :wall:  error #3 on us.  Men on 1st and 3rd.

This inning is a disaster, so far. Guilbeau commits throwing error. Runners on 1st and 3rd, still nobody out.

8-7, but finally we got 2 out.

 :popcorn2:

8-8 and a pitching change after the double up the middle.

Our lead left.   :(

Game is tied 8-8 with UT still batting in the 8th. Bama pitching has completely lost it's composure. Bramblett relieving Guibeau with 2 outs and a runner on 2nd.

Finally got the last out. 8-8 going to the 9th.

I'm hoping that you getting on here will get our momentum back.  :lol2:

Moore homers to put Bama back on top 9-8 with one out in the 9th.  #+

Wass singles for yet another multi-hit game, but Overstreet hits into a double play.

C'mon, Bama, hold 'em!!!

I'll take credit for it.   :lol2: :lol2:

 8)

Settle our pitcher down, will ya? He just walked the leadoff batter.  >:(

Next batter doubles him in. Not looking good.  :(

Too late.  9-9

 :'( :'( :'(

UT wins 10-9. Boy, did we let one get away. Keller pitched great, but our relievers blew chunks. Big disappointment.  :-\

It was a real downer to blow an 8-2 lead in the 8th and a 9-8 lead in the 9th. We ran out of pitching. Playing five games in one week is difficult on a pitching staff. We had used our closer on Wed, Fri and Sat so he was not available. In the 9th we went to our 2nd baseman Kyle Overstreet to close the game. He had only pitched 1 inning all year. We used four relievers just trying to get out of the 8th.

Overall we had a very good week. We played 5 games with 4 of them on the road. The UAB Wed game in B'ham was no walk in the park. That was a quality win. We took the UT series winning 2 of 3. Going into the week I thought winning 4 of 5 was a difficult task.

We finish the week 28-12 and 12-6 SEC. We are tied with Florida for the overall SEC lead. We lead the SEC West by 1.5 games over LSU.

We started the week with an RPI of #24 and UT was #19. Today our RPI is #16 and UT is #26.

As I said in the previous post it was a tough loss blowing the big lead yesterday but at the end of the year beating UT 2 of 3 in their park will look very good on our schedule.

I agree. I just hope this kind of loss doesn't linger in the players' minds.

Our offense played great. We got 10 plus hits in every game last week. They have to be pleased with their production. The team can not get down on the pitching. We have played 40 games and I can think of only two games where pitching has hurt us. One was Sunday and the other was when we blew a lead in the A&M series. Pitching has won their share of games this year. I still can not get over the 6 games we lost 2-1 and two others we lost 2-0 and 1-0. The offense can not be too upset with the pitching.

Our four toughest series of the year are coming up. We have USC (RPI #6) on the road, Florida #1 at home, LSU #13 on the road and Miss St #40 at home.

That's a murderous schedule right there. I'm glad most of them are at home, not that we're any slouches on the road.

I failed to say that LSU is on the road. We have two series remaining at home and two on the road.
