They aren’t making OKC. Have you been watching the hitting especially situation hitting? TP would need to go on a huge run and frankly they just don’t have the depth.

This team has been running on momentum both positive and negative all year. They started out 25-0 coming up with clutch late game performances one after another. Then Coffey went down, they lost a couple to Ole Miss, and they lost their confidence. Suddenly, they started losing more games late than they won and lost 6 of 8 conference series. The truth is they are neither as good as they started nor as bad as their conference record would suggest. If the wins the last two days can spark their confidence and bring back the positive momentum, they absolutely can go on a run. They’ve proven they can do it before.

As far as both softball and baseball go, you only need to be hot the next 2 weekends. None of the rest matters.

Her first team in 2012 batted .220 for the ENTIRE SEASON. They got swept at Kentucky the last series of the season. They lost 1-0 in the first game of the SEC Tournament.

But they won the regional at A&M with timely hits and incredible pitching, then did the same in the Super at Missouri and Voila--WCWS.

I don't know if that will happen this year--but it isn't impossible with this group of players.

I will say this--if we DO make it to OKC, we should look back to the Alabama game as the catalyst. This team looks like it's having fun again, and some of the big hitters are starting to warm up again. I think they are getting their confidence back.
