And then Baseball

After being competitive on Friday night against one of the top teams in the nation at Kentucky and winning Saturday's match up, I thought we might be turning a corner. Then Sunday happened.

Blanked by Kentucky, 5-0. To put the drop off from Kentucky to Georgia in perspective, all three of Ketucky's weekend starters would probably be our first starter. We drop precariously off after McLaughlin and Boling, both of whom are pitching well. The bats also go silent at terrible times, but we also only have two guys hitting above .300 in conference play. On the season, we are sitting at 10-19 (1-8). After we face Kennesaw State today, we have Missouri coming to town this weekend.

Missouri is our best chance for a while this season to win an SEC series. We have Auburn and Tennessee on the road yet, so those are possibles. ESPNU has the Saturday game with an 8pm first pitch. If we have any delusions hope of making the SEC tournament, this weekend is a must sweep.
