Oh hell yeah. Wife's boyfriend's prosthetic leg is going on eBay tonight.How the season ended the last time we swept Kentucky:
Well, I give it to the guys and Parker, They put it it together. We will see what they do next week. But nice sweep. Best hitting we've seen in a bit and quick decisions on pitching. I will say Kentucky is struggling this year but so are we so it's nice to string some wins together.
It's Powell behind the plate not Highfll, that's the main differenceGot another Kentucky runner trying to steal a base. Who even is this team
This goes double for college head football coaches going to the locker room at halftime. Miss Piggy uhh I mean Holly Rowe "What do you have to do in the 2nd half coach to get back in the game?" Well we've got to go in and regroup and come back out and get after them" Miss Piggy " Thanks coach good luck"

Neil and Powell said the same thing too last night in post game comments, that they were going to be challenged in the pen
Well that’s what the announcer said we needed for a coach. Not once but he said it about five times.
