    Its pretty much all on the line this weekend as Horns host West Virginia. Texas is 9-11 in conference and sitting in seventh place but can jump as high as fourth with a good weekend and all but guarantee a tournament berth. Games are on LHN Friday at 6:30; Saturday at 4:00; and Sunday at 1:00 p.m.:hookem:

    Horns drop game two 4-3. Will try again tomorrow for what would be a huge series win.

    Good job David Pierce. Congrats on continuing streak of getting into a regional every year as head coach.

    Congrats to the seniors that adapted to a new coaching staff, their reward: regardless of the Big 12 tourney, Horns are regional bound.

    Then, anything can happen.

    Can you say Coastal Carolina 2016 College World Series Champions?

    Would be cool if the Big 12 gets 4 to Omaha instead of the pathetic showing of only Tceh, TCU, and OsU last year (sarc).

    P.S., like this David Pierce guy. Unassuming, going about his business methodically, quietly, successfully, kind of in the tradition of Disch/Falk/Gustafson/Garrido, professionally managing one of the top two all-time programs.

    No flash, no splash, just coaching college baseball as it should be.

    Hook 'em, Coach Pierce!!

    Huge win today. Texas is probably in but winning a couple of games in the Big XII tourney would remove any doubt.:hookem:

    Like I said, goals this year were to beat Aggie and play in tourney. The one loss games to Baylor, TCU, Tech are the difference between 2nd seed and current seed.

    One could argue the sweep by Kansas was worse.

    Viper, the Horns actually took the Friday game against Kansas but your point is correct that 2-1 series loss in Lawrence hurts more than the sweeps by Tech and TCU. Change one of those two losses to Kansas to a win and Texas is third in the Big XII instead of sixth.

    Thanks for the correction FW. Also don't forget the Sunday game rainout at OSU after Texas took the first 2.
