The Longhorns need one more win the extend this incredible run all the way to the national championship series.

After Texas dropped the first game of the College World Series to California-Irvine, I wrote that all the Longhorns had to do to get out of their bracket was win four in a row against some really good teams. They're 75% of the way there after eliminating Louisville, getting some revenge against Irvine to send the Anteaters packing, and riding Nathan Thornhill's great performance to a 4-0 win over Vanderbilt yesterday.

Vandy, of course, had come through the winner's bracket, meaning Texas' win yesterday was only half the battle. Texas came in needing to beat the 'Dores twice, while Vandy has to beat Texas only once to advance to next week's national championship series. So the Longhorn win yesterday served to set up a winner-take-all matchup at 7:00 PM tonight.

As good as tonight's starting hurler Parker French has been, it's unrealistic to expect the Longhorns to hold Vandy scoreless over 18 innings. The Commodores hit too many balls hard yesterday, despite Thornhill pitching beautifully, to have any confidence Texas will be lucky enough to get another shutout.

Which means Texas will need another few runs. Four, the total from yesterday, may well be sufficient, but it's unlikely Texas will benefit from two hit batsmen and a walk before ever having to put a ball in play, then get around an unacceptable strikeout by the cleanup hitter and apparent inning-ending double play ball that happens to hit the ump for an automatic single today. Nor are Vandy's outfielders likely to trip over themselves and make an ill-advised diving attempt to allow back-to-back triples.

Oh, and Carson Fulmer is pitching for the 'Dores. He brings a 1.88 ERA and has held opponents to a .194 average. The sophomore will make life tough for the Texas hitters, and for me there are two keys to this game: Tres Barrera and Kacy Clemens. For the former, Augie Garrido has stubbornly left him in the cleanup role despite his looking overmatched throughout the College World Series thus far. He's had a fantastic freshman campaign and the next two years look bright, but in the here and now Texas needs him to put together some decent at-bats for the first time in Omaha.

As for Clemens, the fellow freshman also has a bright future and has been great in clutch situations throughout the season. That is, like Barrera, until Omaha. The first baseman has played well in the field and doesn't appear to be getting rattled, but he has also failed to put together strong plate appearances over the last four games. If those guys return to regular-season form, that would give Vandy two more bats to deal with and greatly increase Texas' chances of pushing a few runs across.

So it's all on the line tonight. Texas needs as good as French has on the hill and a full team performance at the plate. With a win, the Longhorns will earn the honor of a three-game series against an excellent Virginia squad with a fully rested pitching staff. With a loss? Well, a Texas team that looked dead in the water, and whose 2014 season looked like it might be enough of a disappointment to put Garrido's job in jeopardy, will leave Omaha with a 3-2 record in this College World Series and an unbelievable amount of talent returning for next year.

But that kind of talk is for a couple of weeks from now. Nothing is ever guaranteed in sports, least of all a return trip to the College World Series de facto semifinals. When an opportunity like this is within your grasp, even if the opportunity itself is a supremely pleasant surprise, you don't let it slip through your fingers without a fight. Texas has made it clear over the last week that they will show up ready to play. Here's hoping they catch lightning in a bottle one more time to complete an incredible run through the losers' bracket.

The winner of tonight's game earns a spot in the "Final Four" and will have to beat Vanderbilt twice to play for all the marbles.

Theoretically, this is the kind of game where a school like Texas should have an advantage over a school like Irvine. The Eaters represent a small fish in a small pond, in a talent-rich part of the country. With one dominant pitcher and an excellent coach, they play consistently good baseball and have the ability to get past teams that are objectively more talented than they are, because A) the talent gap isn't as wide as one might think, and B) good pitching is the ultimate equalizer.

But in a game where each team's third starter is called upon to keep the season alive, a school like Texas should have the advantage. With Dillon Peters injured and unavailable, a lot of the inherent advantage evaporates. Still, though, based on Chad Hollingsworth's virtuoso performance against Texas A&M in the Houston Regional, you have to think UT should have the pitching advantage in this evening's rematch against the Anteaters.

Evan Brock has normally been Irvine's third starter, but it doesn't look like he's getting the nod tonight. Coach Mike Gillespie will apparently go with Evan Manarino, who sports a 2.79 ERA in 22 appearances--10 of which are starts. Manarino went 2/3 of an inning in the opener against Texas on Saturday, allowing one hit and striking out one. Opponents do bat north of .300 against him, giving Texas some reason for optimism. If they can get the timely hits with men on base, which they weren't able to do Saturday against ace Andrew Morales, the Longhorns should feel good about their chances.

Hollingsworth comes in with a 1.36 ERA, but has only pitched 46.1 innings on the year. That clincher in Houston where he ended A&M's season was the only start Hollingsworth had all year, and since the Horns went 2-0 in the Super Regional he hasn't been needed since. If the long rest leaves him fresh--as opposed to rusty--Irvine will have their work cut out for them.

It should also be noted that season-long fourth starter Lukas Schiraldi is equally rested and available tonight. Schiraldi had control issues in the one loss to A&M, but if Hollingsworth struggles early you have to think Schiraldi is the guy who'll get first crack at righting the ship. Why not save him for the next start instead? Because the first Vandy game would not be until Friday at 2:00 PM, meaning Nathan Thornhill would be available to start. Should Texas pull that one off, Parker French would be available on four days' rest for the winner-take-all game on Saturday.

So it's advantage Texas on the hill tonight, as the Hollingsworth/Schiraldi combination trumps the Manarino/Brock/Johnny Wholestaff one. Pitching matchups aren't everything, of course, but Texas also displayed an understanding of the formula for winning in this new ballpark on Monday against Louisville: take advantage of your opponent's mistakes, and don't make many of your own. Runs are hard to come by in this yard, so when Irvine opens the door Texas will need to step through it. That's exactly what they did Monday to send the Cardinals home, and a similar opportunistic performance will place Texas firmly in Vanderbilt's way.

 http://www.burntorangenation.com/2014/6/18/5817362/texas-uci-elimination-game-open-thread Abram Orlansky 2014-06-18T10:31:14-04:00 2014-06-18T10:31:14-04:00 On Schlossnagle, Omaha, and the NCAA
TCU's head coach had some strong words for TD Ameritrade Park after a 15-inning loss to Virginia. And he was 100% right.

After his team fell to UVA in the Cavs' second walk-off win in as many CWS games, TCU's Jim Schlossnagle praised Virginia's hitters who produced a leadoff double, sac bunt, and sac fly to score the winning run. He then offered the following: "I got to be careful before I say some things about this ballpark that I'll regret, but it's just a travesty what we've done to college baseball." He added that, had his team prevailed, his criticism would have been harsher.

It would be easy to call this sour grapes--your team loses a big game, and you go straight to blaming the nature of the game. But he was lamenting the lack of offense for both teams, and the facts back him up. The last time a team scored more than five runs and lost a CWS game, it was played at Rosenblatt Stadium. Ole Miss has managed a total of three runs in two games, and they're still in town. Not to pick on the Rebels, but only one of those runs was earned.

On the radio this morning, Tim Brando brought up a tweet by another member of the media in last night's 12th inning, saying the worst thing about the situation was it would likely take a mistake by a kid to end the game. Luckily, Virginia did manage to fight their way to a truly "earned" run, but earlier in the day Texas Tech pitcher Cameron Smith found out exactly what the tweeter whose name I can't recall was talking about. In the bottom of the ninth in a 1-1 game, in which Ole Miss' lone run had also been error-assisted, Smith induced a comebacker to set up a an inning-ending double play and secure extra baseball for Tech. Smith hesitated on the throw to second, though, creating an awkward angle for when he finally did make the throw. The ball was high, floating into center field and allowing the eventual winning run to get to third base.

With the deadened bats, deadened balls, and enormous ballpark, the NCAA and the City of Omaha have managed to--not ruin, exactly, but diminish--college baseball's biggest event. The College World Series is the NCAA"s last showcase of the school year. For the two months after a champion is crowned, college sports are off the national radar completely. There are baseball fans who watch no college ball all year until the CWS--and I have to imagine those numbers are dwindling with every 2-1 and 3-2 game with no chance of a home run and no offense to speak of.

For those of us who follow college baseball throughout the season, it's even worse. The less-powerful bats and balls are ok, if not ideal, in the average college ballpark. In the 1997 CWS, Brandon Larson of LSU and Lance Berkman of Rice each came in with over 40 home runs; in a 65-game season, that's just too many. So I acknowledge that some change was needed--not only because of inflated numbers, but also because of the sheer danger of a pitcher standing only 60 feet away from guys wielding those bats.

But now, as it is wont to do, the NCAA has failed to think through its solution and over-corrected. The timing of moving the CWS from Rosenblatt to TD Ameritrade couldn't have been worse, as fly balls that would have been gappers or homers in the regular season now die in outfielders' gloves. It just makes no sense to play one game for an entire season, then change basic features of that game when it's time to crown a champion. "Congratulations!" says the NCAA. "You've proven you're one of the best chess players in the world! Now, to show you're the very best chess player in the world, beat these other guys at checkers."

It's the NCAA, so nothing will change. Yes, apparently the baseballs will have a tad more juice starting next year, which may help some. But the ballpark in which the championship is decided will remain entirely inappropriate for the college game, and--like all NCAA policies and decisions--it'll remain self defeating and stupid.

After losing a tough one to Irvine, Texas attempts to avoid being the first team sent home from Omaha.

A small village of Longhorns was left to waste away on the base paths in the early innings on Saturday, keeping the score at 1-0 Texas and keeping UC Irvine in the ballgame. Nathan Thornhill was brilliant, but finally lost his stranglehold on the Anteaters in the eighth inning. Irvine took advantage of its opportunity, putting up three runs where two would have been plenty. The Longhorn offense went quietly--granted, with the help of a couple of called strikes that were a foot outside--in the eighth and ninth, and Texas found itself in the losers' bracket.

Unlike the 2011 CWS appearance, wherein Texas went 1-2-BBQ and was clearly outmatched, this game could have gone either way. To his credit, Eaters' pitcher Andrew Morales worked out of trouble several times early in the game when the Horns could have blown it open. The timely hitting that led UT past A&M in the regional and Houston in the Super was absent, aside from a perfect squeeze bunt in the second inning that scored the only run for the Longhorns.

Irvine, on the other hand, did eventually get that timely hitting with guys on base in the top of the eighth. The 3-1 loss is a heartbreaker since it was between two very evenly matched teams, but now all Texas can do is win the next one. If they can manage to "win the next one" four times, they'll play for a national title. A single loss in the next four games, and a beautiful NCAA Tournament run will be over.

Weather permitting, Texas will take on Louisville today at 2:00--meaning a second straight game against a team whose uniforms Adidas has ruined with a ridiculous watermark. The Cards fell behind Vanderbilt 4-0, fought back to 4-3, then allowed an insurance run on a passed ball that provided the final 5-3 margin of defeat. Louisville had been a perfect 5-0 in the Tournament coming into Omaha, but several mistakes--including nine walks--helped Vandy overcome them.

Sophomore Anthony Kidston will get the ball for Louisville, with his 9-0 record and 3.54 ERA. He has thrown only 68.2 innings in 13 starts, meaning Texas will have a chance to chase him early if they are patient at the plate. Parker French will take the hill for Texas, looking to stave off elimination until at least Wednesday.

The game is at 2:00 PM (theoretically) on ESPN2 and WatchESPN.com. This is your open thread. Hook 'em!

Over the next week (hopefully), Texas will play at least two of these teams. Below, a quick look at each squad on Texas' side of the College World Series bracket and how they might match up with the Longhorns.

The Longhorns will open the action at this year's CWS tomorrow afternoon against UC-Irvine, followed by a matchup between Vanderbilt and Louisville. All three teams provide reasons to fear them, but all three are beatable--especially in a ballpark like TD Ameritrade, for which an Augie Garrido Texas team is very much built. Texas will once again be without staff ace Dillon Peters, meaning it is even more important for the Longhorns to come through the winners' bracket than it would normally be. That means winning the first two games is absolutely crucial--for everyone, but especially Texas. Here are the squads standing in the way of Texas and a chance to play for the program's seventh national title:

UC-Irvine

40-23, Big West

Won Corvallis Regional, Def. Oklahoma State 2-0 in Stillwater Super Regional

The Anteaters have taken the most impressive path to Omaha, at least if you believe in the accuracy of the NCAA Tournament Committee's seedings. Irvine is the only three-seed to advance this far, having gone into Corvallis on the first weekend and knocked off the #1 overall seed Oregon State. They then proceeded to knock of an Oklahoma State team who, you may remember, took 4 of 6 from Texas this year in a two-game sweep in Stillwater. So this is a hot team right now.

The matchup tomorrow will, apparently, be between a pair of "Public Ivies," so that's nice. On the field, any conversation about the Eaters has to begin with pitching ace Andrew Morales. Jeff and I have been engaged in an ongoing gchat debate over whether Morales will start against Texas tomorrow. Jeff's position is, because Irvine held Morales until Game Two against Oklahoma State, it's possible they'll take the same approach in Omaha--that is, try to get past Texas with number two starter Elliot Surrey and save Morales for the winner's bracket game, where a win would propel UCI into the driver's seat.

My take is that the College World Series' four-team bracket structure is much more similar to the regional than the Super Regional, and in Corvallis coach Mike Gillespie started Morales against UNLV in their first game rather than save him for Oregon State in the second. So, in my view, it would be pretty surprising if the Longhorns do not end up having to deal with Morales, who went in the second round to the Cardinals last week. If I'm right, that will mean the two starting pitchers tomorrow will have a combined ERA of just over 3--Morales has a slight edge at 1.53 to Nathan Thornhill's 1.57. With these two on the hill in a pitcher-friendly ballpark, the game could last under two hours. Or over five, if no one ever scores and they end up just playing 50 innings until they are declared co-national champions and the other six teams are sent home.

Morales has held opponents to a meek .182 batting average and sports an eye-popping 9.5 K/9 average--i.e., he strikes out nine and a half batters for every nine innings he pitches. Add in a 4.53 K/BB ratio and a 0.87 WHIP, and the numbers show just what a monster this guy is. UCI will attempt to beat Texas at its own game, then--by shutting down the Texas offense and scoring just enough to win. At the plate, Irvine has four guys over .300 but only one over .320, with Connor Spencer the offensive leader at .370. Their power, such as it is, mostly comes from Taylor Sparks and Kris Paulino, who have five homers each--the rest of the team has combined for two.

Texas' road to victory is likely to be as patient as possible at the plate, forcing Morales' pitch count as high as they can to try and get to the middle relief. If Morales is able to take the game into the 7th or 8th inning, Irvine's closer Sam Moore also sports a sub-2.00 ERA and doesn't provide much of a breather.

Vanderbilt

49-19, SEC East

Won Nashville Regional, Def. Stanford 2-1 in Nashville Super Regional

Vanderbilt has been so consistently good in the SEC for the past decade that I was pretty taken aback to see that this is only the 'Dores' second CWS appearance. Much like Virginia in The Bizarro Bracket, Vandy has entered the Tournament as a trendy pick to win it all several times but has yet to reach the mountaintop. If Vegas has it right, the two schools have a good chance at meeting in the finals and guaranteeing that one drought will end.

Vandy may well be the most talented team in the field, but their on-field results this season were inconsistent enough that they nonetheless missed out on a national seed. They lucked out a bit, though, with Stanford staging a comeback win over Indiana in the Bloomington Regional that eliminated the Hoosiers and allowed Vanderbilt to host the Cardinal rather than traveling to play IU. Stanford proved a tough out, but Vandy finally exploded late in the deciding Game Three to emerge with a 12-5 win and a punched ticket to Omaha.

Our brethren over at Anchor of Gold saw fit to make fun of the Longhorns for boasting only two players with batting averages over .300, but the 'Dores themselves have only three--and Vince Conde teeters on the edge at .303. Bryan Reynolds is the team's best hitter across the board, with a .343 average, four homeruns, 24 doubles, 52 RBI, and a .494 slugging percentage. All of those numbers except homeruns is good enough for the team lead.

On the hill, Vandy's ace is Tyler Beede, who went to the Giants with the #14 overall pick last week--something of a slide after he was projected to go top-5, but still a reflection that he's a truly excellent pitcher. He struggled a bit against Stanford last Friday, but I wouldn't expect a repeat performance in Omaha. The good news is, he's Louisville's problem--despite a tough outing a week ago, coach Tom Corbin will almost certainly give the ball to his proven top dog.

Should Texas face the Commodores in the second game, they'll probably get Carson Fulmer, a righty who struck out nine in just 6.1 innings in a 5-4 loss to Stanford in Game Two of the Super Regional. Fulmer was not a weekend starter for most of the season, but Corbin gave him the ball in Vandy's second game last weekend and he sports a 1.78 ERA in 76 innings this season. If Corbin decides not to go with Fulmer, though, Texas would likely see Walker Buehler--who had a great year but was chased after just three innings and four earned runs in the clincher against Stanford.

Louisville

50-15, AAC (ACC as soon as CWS run ends)

Won Louisville Regional, Def. Kennesaw State 2-0 in Louisville Super Regional

Baseball is often overlooked in college sports discussions. One example of that is the conversation over whether the Big 12 should have gone after Louisville as part of a plan to return to 12 schools, rather than allow them to get scooped up by the ACC. The talk was all about football and basketball, which makes sense considering those are the revenue sports. But UL baseball has become a powerhouse in its own right, and would have made the conference better on the diamond as well.

But that's in the past, meaning the best chance Texas has of playing Louisville and their terrible uniforms in the foreseeable future is to meet in this bracket. The Cards are making their second straight CWS appearance, and their third overall with their first coming in 2007. Dan McDonnell, for whom Louisville was his first head coaching job, has been in charge for all three appearances and is the man most responsible for making the school a new-money baseball power despite having competed in the Big East/AAC throughout his tenure. Moving to the ACC, one of the baseball "power conferences," in 2015 should only increase the program's profile.

Louisville's regional was paired with that of future conference foe Florida State, but the 'Noles choked to an 0-2 performance at home and the Cards took advantage, sweeping away Kennesaw State in the Super. Cole Sturgeon is the name you may have heard among hitters on this squad, leading among the Cardinals' position players in batting average, hits, runs, and by far in triples with seven three-baggers. Jeff Gardner and designated hitter Nick Solak are other hitters to watch; Gardner slugs at an impressive .538 clip, with Solak just behind at .489.

Kyle Funkhouser is the staff ace, another guy with a sub-2.00 ERA and--like Beede--not Texas' problem. Funkhouser is just a sophomore, meaning he gets to terrorize the ACC with his upper-90s fastball before entering the 2015 draft. Anthony Kidston got the second start last weekend, with his 9-0 record and 3.54 ERA, but depending on the situation McDonnell may instead go with Jared Ruxer (2.27, 7-1). Ruxer and Kidtson should probably be considered 2a and 2b in the Louisville rotation, as they have similar stats and are both very effective, though neither averages as much as six innings per start.

For those among you not familiar with the College World Series' structure, it is essentially two tournaments. Each bracket of four teams plays a double-elimination round, and the winners of the two brackets then meet for the national title in a best-of-three series. Below, a few notes on the four teams in the Bizarro Bracket.

For Burnt Orange Nation purposes, we'll call the two CWS brackets The Texas Bracket and The Bizarro Bracket. The Texas Bracket consists of Texas, UC Irvine, Louisville, and Vanderbilt. We'll look at that one tomorrow, but for today we review The Bizarro Bracket. This parallel-universe College World Series will play out simultaneous to the one in which Texas toils, but will only become relevant to the Longhorns if Texas can manage to escape its own side of the event. And even then, Texas will only play one of these teams. Still! Let's see about it.

The Bizarro Bracket begins Sunday at 2:00 with an all-Big 12 matchup between Texas Tech and TCU, followed by Ole MIss-Virginia. Should Texas end up playing one of them, we'll of course have stats-heavy information on the players. But for now, we'll go big picture.

Ole Miss

46-19, SEC West

Won Oxford Regional, Def. Louisiana-Lafayette 2-1 in Lafayette Super Regional

This is not Mike Bianco's best team at Ole Miss. But it's his first to make it to Omaha, and the university's first appearance there since 1972. It is their fifth overall trip to the CWS, including one in 1969 featuring a baseball star who also played some football named Archie Manning. The Rebels had a chance to be a national seed, but faltered a bit down the stretch while division rival LSU surged, giving the final national seed to the Tigers. But Ole Miss looked sharp in their regional, going 3-0 including a pair of one-run wins over a very good Washington team out of the Pac 12. In the Super Regional, Louisiana Lafayette looked like they may simply bludgeon Ole Miss to death after pounding out nine runs to win Game One 9-5. But the Rebels toughened up against a Ragin' Cajun squad looking to hit 60 wins on the season, sweeping the final two games and punching their ticket to Omaha.

It's hard not to feel great for Bianco as this big weekend for his program approaches. He strode into Oxford in 2001 after having taken McNeese State to a regional the year before looking to turn Ole Miss into a powerhouse. Bianco had previously played and coached under the legendary Skip Bertman at LSU, and he explicitly made it his goal to bring Ole Miss to the level his mentor had reached a decade and a half earlier. He succeeded quickly in bringing excitement to the Ole Miss program which in and of itself was no mean feat considering baseball in Mississippi has traditionally been dominated by Mississippi State. Thirteen years after his arrival, and having suffered three heartbreaking home Super Regional losses--including one in 2005 at the hands of eventual national champion Texas--Bianco finally climbed the mountain. Having gotten over all those warm and fuzzies, though, he now has to get his team prepared to take on an exceedingly strong Virginia squad. For what it's worth (very little), Vegas has the Rebs at 6/1 odds of emerging as champions--tied with TCU for fourth most likely.

Virginia

48-14, ACC Coastal

Won Charlottesville Regional, Def. Maryland 2-1 in Charlottesville Super Regional

Like Ole Miss, UVA came back from a 1-0 series deficit to take their Super Regional 2-1. Unlike the Rebels, Virginia was decidedly not the underdog in hosting their neighbors to the north, the upstart Maryland Terrapins. As the number 3 national seed, the Cavaliers/Wahoos/President Jefferson Started Our School, In Case You Didn't Know, and as Such We are Largely Insufferable as a Groups are the highest ranked team remaining. In fact, they are one of only two national seeds to make it to Omaha (along with TCU) which sets a record for the fewest national seeds still standing since national seeds became a thing.

Virginia has been a consistent factor in the postseason for the last several years, as coach Brian O'Connor has taken them to 11 straight Tournaments. In fact, O'Connor's Virginia career is interestingly parallel to Bianco's at Ole MIss. While the Rebs have just taken the elusive step of making it to Omaha, for the Cavs the last frontier is a national title. This is their third CWS appearance under O'Connor--and they have been joined by Texas in all three, as the previous two were in 2009 and 2011. Virginia is considered a 3/1 favorite to win the whole thing, according to Vegas, and it's a position the 'Hoos have been in before. They continue to bring national-title talent to bear on an almost yearly basis, yet haven't yet brought home the trophy. It's not a fair standard, but unlike anyone else in this tournament UVA will be disappointed with anything less than its first national championship. All seven other teams--including co-favorite Vanderbilt--can be pumped just to have gotten here if they fall short of the big prize. Not Virginia.

Texas Tech

45-19, Big 12

Won Miami Regional, Def. College of Charleston 2-0 in Lubbock Super Regional

A familiar maybe-foe for Texas, the Raiders took perhaps the least likely route to Omaha. They went to Miami and went through the winner's bracket, lost to the host Hurricanes to set up a winner take all rematch, and then took a 4-0 victory to advance. Meanwhile, in Gainesville, the national-seed Gators watched as the College of Charleston walked out of there with the victory. Like Texas, that set up Tech in the rare position of traveling for the regional and hosting the Super Regional. They beat Charleston 2-0, both in games and runs; in the entire 18 innings of the Super, Tech scored only twice but Charleston couldn't get a single run across. A pair of 1-0 wins sent the Red Raiders to their first-ever College World Series.

Tech spent much of the early part of the season in the top ten, which is not a place the program is used to. With two conference tournament titles and two regular season conference titles, Tech has probably the least illustrious history in the eight-team field. But this is just Tim Tadlock's second season at the helm in Lubbock, and already he has taken the program to the highest level in its history. It's actually more than that: this was Tech's first Super Regional as well, so Tadlock--a former Red Raider shortstop--is responsible for his alma mater crossing two milestones in a single season. Kudos to the Raiders, whom Vegas sees as this week's underdog at 12/1. But they did take two of three from TCU in the regular season, so don't count them out.

TCU

47-16, Big 12

Won Fort Worth Regional, Def. Pepperdine 2-1 in Fort Worth Super Regional

TCU looked dead in the water heading into the ninth inning of its third game against the Pepperdine Waves. Pepperdine led 5-4 as TCU came to bat in the top of the frame. Pepperdine closer Eric Karch came in, with his 16 saves and .185 opponents' batting average. The Frogs had tied it up before there was an out in the inning, with a pair of singles and an RBI double. After a popout, longtime coach Jim Schlossnagle put on the suicide squeeze, which Kyle Bacak executed perfectly to give TCU the Super Regional title once the formality of the bottom of the ninth was over with. TCU gave the Big 12 its third team in Omaha, out of five in the Tournament. Not bad.

On the spectrum of program history, with Texas on one side and Tech on the other, TCU is sneakily more on the Texas side--if only slightly. While this is only the second CWS appearance for the Horned Frogs, they have spent much of their time since 2000 dominating a lesser conference; in fact, in the nine years before TCU joined the Big 12, they won nine regular season conference championships. That's one per year. And although their first season in the Big 12 was something of a disappointment, they rebounded this year to finish second by one game and win the conference tournament. TCU is balanced, unintimidated, and my pick to advance out of The Bizarro Bracket.

Don't refresh your browser. It's not April Fool's Day. The Texas Longhorns--the 2014 Texas Longhorns--will be among the last eight standing at next week's College World Series.

A decent showing in the Houston Regional would have made most Texas fans feel pretty good about this baseball team's postseason performance, heading into a 2015 with many of these same guys but with an extra year of experience. But the Longhorns went ahead and won the regional, and we thought even getting to play in the Super Regional round was gravy.

But after yesterday's 4-2 win, every Longhorn fan smelled blood in the water. One more win, and Texas would earn a berth to its 35th College World Series. A young team with a pitching staff peaking at the right time, which is used to playing at a ballpark where not many balls leave the yard, was on the verge of getting to play for a national title at long-ball graveyard TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha.

Parker French, who started on Fridays for most of the season, had the ball. He didn't have his very best stuff, but he battled out of several jams early until Texas took advantage of an opportunity provided by the Coogs. In the bottom of the fourth, the UH left fielder dropped a catchable ball that went for two bases. A walk and an incredible bunt single by Tres Barrera loaded the bases, and CJ Hinojosa provided a clutch single for a pair of RBI. A sac fly and a Kacy Clemens RBI single gave Texas a 4-0 lead, and that was the end of the scoring.

Houston would threaten a couple more times, but never got a runner across the plate against French or the bullpen. Texas 4. Houston 0. Next stop, Omaha.

If the question is whether Augie Garrido can get Texas baseball back to where it belongs the answer is: he just did. This...is your celebration thread.

As the visiting team on its home field, Texas was the better team in Game One and the final score reflected it. The Longhorns must win one of the next two to advance to their 35th College World Series

Texas took a 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning and, aside from one freakish inning, never really looked back against the Houston Cougars this afternoon in Game One of their Super Regional. Nathan Thornhill was excellent as usual, Mark Payton reached base for the 100th straight game in style, and Texas walked away with a 4-2 win.

Brooks Marlow led off the game with a single, bringing up Ben Johnson. Somewhat shockingly, Augie Garrido opted not to have Johnson bunt Marlow over. I was a big fan of the decision, as I normally don't like taking the bat out the hands of the top half of the lineup and particularly don't like it in the early innings, when I'd rather see teams go for the crooked number than attempt to manufacture a single run.

In any event, Johnson showed why Augie normally bunts by hitting a ground ball to short. Luckily, it wasn't hit sharply enough for Houston to turn a double play, and there was a man on first for Mark Payton. Riding a 99-game on-base streak, Payton hammered a ball over the right field fence for a two-run homer, giving Texas a lead it would never relinquish.

Another run in the fourth from a Cougar throwing error, followed by an RBI single by Tres Barrera in the fifth, extended the advantage to 4-0. Houston fought back in the bottom of the frame with a strange pair of runs. Justin Montemayor led off with a sharp single. Freshman Connor Hollis took a borderline 1-2 pitch and got the ball called; on the next pitch, he lifted a flair into shallow right field. Marlow went back on it but appeared to lose the ball in the sun, and it dropped in for a hit. The next hitter was Josh Vidales, whose possible double-play ground ball hit the first base bag and bounced over Kacy Clemens' head.

That scored Montemayor and put runners at the corners with none out. Thornhill induced a 1-6-3 double play, allowing Hollis to score but cutting off the Cougars' momentum. Landon Appling struck out to end the inning, and Houston didn't get another runner past second base. John Curtiss got the two-inning save, and the score held up.

For the third time in as many weekend, Texas now must win just once in two games while their opponent has no margin for error in the quest to advance to the next round. Two weeks ago, they lost a pair of close ones to Oklahoma State. Last week, they lost the first and won the second against Texas A&M. Here's hoping the positive pattern continues, and the Longhorns put Houston away tomorrow--ending their season, and beginning The University of Texas at Omaha's 35th season of baseball.

Nintendo 3DSIn Pictures: 20 Must-See Games And Components From E3 2010
This device is somewhat interesting. After all, it's 3D gaming that fits in your pocket. Still, it's a Nintendo product. Despite the new 3D spec-less technology, hardcore gamers will likely not see bloody shooters and explicit gangsta love gracing its screens.
But the device does offer a gaming aspect nothing else currently can match. Throw in the ability to take 3D pictures and watch 3D movies, and you have a mobile platform that raises the mobile platform bar.
The question will be whether or not Nintendo can regain some ground taken away by Apple's iPhone, iPod Touch, and the recent iPad. We're still hoping that Nintendo will broaden the WiFi service and take an iTunes approach.
As of this writing, Nintendo is still quiet about how it plans to distribute its 3D movies (stay tuned on that one), but there are plans to release enhanced ports of classic Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Nintendo Entertainment System games.

Actors ranging from '90s teen heartthrob Jonathan Taylor Thomas to Oscar nominee Paul Giamatti have donned Santa's iconic red suit. Check out other actors that have dressed — and sometimes decided to go shirtless — as the beloved holiday figure. Billy Bob Thornton, Bad Santa What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 There's nothing jolly about Thornton's turn as a department store Santa Claus, who plots to rob his place of employment on Christmas Eve. 1 / 10 Ed Asner, Elf What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The traditional Santa has tons of little helpers, but Asner's Santa also has one very big one in the form of Buddy the elf (Will Ferrell), a full grown man who doesn't realize he's human. 2 / 10 Paul Giamatti, Fred Claus What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 All families deal with a little familial tension during the holidays, and the Claus clan is no exception in this film that stars Giamatti as a Santa who has to contend with a trouble-making older brother (Vince Vaughn). 3 / 10 Jonathan Taylor Thomas, I'll Be Home For Christmas What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Teen heartthrob JTT spends most of this movie dressed as Saint Nick after a group of bullies abandon him in the desert dressed as Santa. 4 / 10 Patton Oswalt, A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Traditionally, Santa likes it when kids leave him milk and cookies, but Oswalt's drug-dealing Santa would probably prefer another kind of treat, as he spends his onscreen cameo getting high with Kumar. 6 / 10 Edmund Gwenn, Miracle on 34th Street What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Macy's management would probably end up on the naughty list for having Gwenn's Kris Kringle committed for believing that he's actually Santa Claus. 6 / 10 Ryan Phillippe, 54 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Santa may be known for having a belly like a bowl full of Jelly, but Phillippe defies tradition, rocking a six-pack in his shirtless Santa suit instead. 7 / 10 Tim Allen, The Santa Clause 2 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Tim Allen plays a single Santa in this sequel, where he has to find a Mrs. Claus or risk losing his post as Father Christmas. 8 / 10 Jake Gyllenhaal, Jarhead What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Though Marine Anthony Swofford (Gyllenhaal) is stationed in blisteringly hot Saudi Arabia, that doesn't stop him from donning a Santa hat to get into the Christmas spirit. 9 / 10 Ben Affleck, Reindeer Games What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 When ex-con Rudy Duncan (Ben Affleck) is blackmailed into participating in a heist, he ends up having to dress up as Santa on Christmas Eve in an attempt to rob a casino. 11 / 10 0 18 9 0 0 Read More HolidayMovies Holiday 100+ of the Best DIY Gifts Ever 3 days ago Make Your Coffee Table Gorgeous With These Beauty Books 1 week ago 40+ Life-Changing Books to Read This Summer 4 weeks ago How to Assemble a Pinterest-Worthy Cheese Plate 7/08 101 Memoirs Penned by Famous Females 6/29 40 Killer Vegetarian Appetizers 6/24 Get a Personalized Celebrity & Entertainment Newsletter!

In just two sentences, buried deep within the Governor's 2015 budget, Governor Chris Christie claims the power to tax outside the borders of New Jersey.
Governor Christie wants to force out-of-state online businesses to collect and remit New Jersey sales tax. He claims that it's only fair to the brick and mortar small businesses in New Jersey that already must collect sales tax from their customers.
Under current law, when a New Jersey resident makes a purchase from an out-of-state online business, they are required to calculate the New Jersey sales tax they owe and pay it when they file their income taxes. But most people don't know they have to disclose their online purchases to the state, and so they don't. Governor Christie and his supporters say that we need to "level the playing field," among other jargon, to bring online businesses onto equal footing as brick and mortar businesses.
But what's so irritating is that it's not about fairness at all. It's about filling up New Jersey's coffers with new revenue.
When Amazon struck a deal with the state to build its warehouses in exchange for collecting NJ sales tax, the conversation was hardly about fairness. It was about the tax revenue that Amazon would bring in. It sure wasn't about Amazon receiving tax incentives or millions of tax dollars in grants. And it certainly was not about the unfair advantage Amazon would then have over New Jersey small businesses who weren't so fortunate to receive grant money from the state.
Christie's newly claimed authority to tax beyond the boundaries of New Jersey is essentially the same as the Marketplace Fairness Act (MFA) legislation — the vaunted "internet sales tax" — pending in Congress that would allow states to require out-of-state online businesses to collect and remit their state's. It's supposed to take away the "unfair advantage" that out-of-state online businesses have on businesses with a physical presence in New Jersey.
But the MFA, and likewise Governor Christie's agenda, is hardly fair, especially for small businesses. The next time the Governor touts "fairness" and the need to pass the MFA, remember these points:
1. The MFA allows states to levy taxes on individuals and businesses from other states. This is a clear violation of the Constitution, which provides that Congress shall regulate interstate commerce, not the states. It sets a dangerous precedent for states to tax other areas of interstate commerce.
2. The MFA will put upward pressure on sales taxes. If states are allowed to tax beyond their borders, it will destroy the barrier of competition among the states. States currently must compete with one another to entice businesses to set up shop in their state, primarily through offering low taxes. But if every state can tax individuals and businesses in every other state, there is no more incentive to keep taxes low. In fact, it would be in a state's interest to raise sales taxes.
3. Small businesses will be crushed under the onerous MFA compliance regulations. Businesses with a physical presence only have to comply with the tax laws of their jurisdiction. Online businesses will be forced to comply with tax laws and regulations in up to 46 states and over 9,000 tax jurisdictions. That also means that online businesses can be audited by every state and tax jurisdiction they do business in. This is especially devastating for small businesses, who unlike Amazon and other big retailers, don't have teams of corporate lawyers.

Boy am I excited!
I watched the trailer, and the trailer looks awesome!
YouTube - Iron Man Anime Trailer
So my question is, are you excited as I am? What do you think?
Also, who do you think will be the voice actor?
I hope it's the voice actor from GITS of the character Batou(Ootsuka-san)...
Now that I think about GITS, I would like to see an Ironman from Production I.G. as well...
But for now, I will scream MADHOUSE!!!

Their upcoming UK label night is happen at Leeds' Enjoy Art Space, and will be the first PAN label showcase since last year's Tokyo show in August. The event is headlined by Tokyo's Kouhei Matsunaga under his NHK'Koyxeи moniker, whose recent PAN LP Dance Classics Vol. I was described by RA's Steve Kerr as "tight and straightforward as it gets... skittery, almost pop-friendly beats."

Festive frock
Ok, I'm a bit late with this post about a dress I made in November to wear to my Christmas functions. This is one of those dresses that you buy the fabric for one day, cut it out that night, sew it the next day and wear it to a Christmas party the next, all while casually ignoring your family. You do it too, right? When I went into The Fabric Shop to grab some fabric for the dress the only thing I was thinking was "just not floral". Fail! I'm working on the floral addiction...
Pattern: burdastyle 9/2012 #109
Fabric: floral cotton and rayon lining from The Fabric Store
Alterations: shortened the sleeves, took in the side seams under the sleeves, and the sleeves a little
Speaking of sleeves, can someone tell me if it is a feature of a shift dress with sleeves to become extremely short when you raise your arms? Or have I just not fit the dress correctly?
16 comments:
Wow such great use of that amazing fabric. Love the shape of the dress too, seems to be lots of these cute short sleeve shifty sort of dresses around lately.ReplyDeleteReplies
Am I accidentally on trend?Delete
"Wow" is totally the right word for it! I love this fabric. And a very cute dress too. Sometimes the most beautiful fabrics work best with simple styles.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks, I agree. The style had to be kept simple.Delete
Gorgeous Rosi! I don't think it is a fitting issue regarding your sleeves, I just think it is just raising your arms pulls the dress up. Pretty unavoidable I think (unless you make it longer but then it would be too long most of the time)ReplyDeleteReplies
No waving my arms around on the dancefloor in this dress I guess!Delete
You just chose the right, simple pattern to showcase that beautiful fabric. Pretty!ReplyDelete
Lovely...and look at that fabric!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks Natty!Delete
Perfect pattern for a border print fabric like this, the colours are just beautiful. Also perfect for Christmas because you can eat as much as you like.. ;)ReplyDeleteReplies
Ha ha, the real reason why I chose that style.Delete
Beautiful feminine dress and what's wrong with a floral fabric addiction? Suits you well.ReplyDeleteReplies
There's absolutely nothing wrong with a floral fabric addiction. However, I do have a lot of floral/patterned separates that would get much more wear if I balanced my wardrobe out with a few more solids.Delete
Such a pretty dress, lovely floral with ombre effect. The dress is a very wearable style, classic. You look great in it :)ReplyDelete
