Would have been a close play since the guy from 2nd has a leadoff and whatnot. Take the sure out

But the 3-1 pitch with the bases loaded was called a strike even though it was 8" outside!

I was at the bar Saturday night. And when Florida lost, I said that it was the worst thing that could have happened for Kent. Some drunk dude turned and looked at me and said, "Kent's gonna eliminate these fucktards." I laughed and told him they had a great run, and he should just be happy they made it as far as they did.

My apologies to that guy. Spot on.

I started this thread after the marathon game win, I never thought we would still be talking Kent Baseball at this point.

I got home at the start of the 8th. WTF Randall left in the 1st with heat exhaustion? Thought the rally was on in the 9th, best move they made was beaning Pigott, he would have ended the game with a clutch hit. The 3-1 was outside, but I'm sure the umps sucked both ways. 3rd time is not the charm. Gator fans are so pissed at Sully. Randall is the ace, but Johnson was better vs. USC this year. All those high draft picks and they blew it. Go Flashes.

The strike the ump called on 3-1 was called twice on Kent the inning before and multiple times all game. He had a high strike zone.

Which actually surprised me that he didn't call the 2-1 pitch a strike because it was even closer to the strike zone.

Flashes are guaranteed nothing less than a 5th place (tied) finish which is quite impressive for a team that has to go on the road for the first month of the season, while the "fucktards" down south can play outside all year long.

Knocked out the #1 ranked team in the country, now a chance to knock out the 2-time defending champ. Can't imagine how jacked these players are to play again. Thought Stricklin was going to have a heart attack when his bully couldn't find the strike zone.
