Horns win 5-2! Taylor Jungmann was brilliant for six innings and Kevin Keyes brought just enough power to return the Horns to the College World Series for the 33rd time overall and first since 2005. We can (and will) talk more about the road ahead for a title run, but for now enjoy the victory. The Horns are going back to where they belong, the season has been validated, Texas baseball is back.
Back home in Omaha!
Your pretty quick 40AS

I decided 6 outs with a 5 run lead was safe to get a draft up
Worked out okay :-)
40AS - June 8, 2009
I am pretty sure that is the reason they scored 2 runs
But a win is a win!

Out of the wasteland and back to Omaha!
Good to feel good about Texas baseball again.
Wescott Eberts (GoBR) - June 8, 2009
out of the wasteland...
and into the middle of Nebraska
acho81 - June 8, 2009
Eastern Nebraska actually.
Right across the border from Iowa — a lot of Nebraska isn’t much to look at, but the area around Omaha is actually kinda pretty, especially if you’ve been driving east.
Wescott Eberts (GoBR) - June 8, 2009
And espeically if you keep driving east...

just got back from game
Why the hell can we beat Louisiana Monroe in Football this September and the tower will be orange on top while in baseball, we win win a regional and a super regional to go to college world series and no lighting of tower?
This is wrong!

yah, was thinking the same thing.

CWS Schedule
Pairings & Game Times
We get CWS Virgin Ole Miss at 5pm Sunday, then if we win we face the winner of UNC and ASU at the same timeslot on Tuesday.
A question for the baseball gurus…. Do we go with our usual pitching sequence, or would Augie consider switching Green and Ruffin given the higher priority of the Tuesday game?
patienthornsfan - June 9, 2009
Fixed
Playing the Golden Eagles, not the Rebels.

Oops. Hadn’t had my coffee yet. Thanks for catching that. Wish there was a way to edit comments!
patienthornsfan - June 9, 2009
Interesting thought
Although the way Green’s been throwing he may be the hottest pitcher in the rotation. Probably a pretty good chance of Green throwing first followed by Ruffin and (hopefully) Jungmann.
40AS - June 9, 2009
So if Green is the hottest pitcher in the rotation wouldn’t you save him for UNC or ASU in the second game?
patienthornsfan - June 9, 2009
Ruffin has been the most consistent, he's clearly the ace
Although with the way Green’s throwing, plus Jungmann’s potential and the depth of Workman/Dicharry/Wood, all before even getting to questionable pitching is just incredible
40AS - June 9, 2009
And the game time is actually 6 PM
The times announced will all be Central because Omaha is in the Central time zone.
bassale47 - June 9, 2009
Another oops. I just assume typical ESPN East Coast bias.
