I'm thinking (hoping? praying?) that Lincoln understands he's not going to be able to take it to the next level with Mike as a millstone around his neck. The only solution is try to out-talent opposing teams. Because we ain't gonna stop anybody with Xs and Os. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really like the way he went through his progressions and moved around in the pocket (still keeping his eyes downfield) under pressure. Regardless of who is named starter this summer, both are gonna see playing time in 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't knock Murray for that performance because he is playing baseball right now. He'll be in football form for fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was also on a much weaker team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based purely on my own "eye test" I thought Kendall looked slightly better passing. Murray seemed too casual, and his passes seemed to hang a bit. The windy conditions certainly didn't help. Of course, Kyler is a much better runner, but Kendall wasn't too shabby himself. Again, I still feel it's Murray's job to lose, but I think Kendall will push for playing time. I don't see that as a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BudaSooner Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Sooner Women Punch their ticket to WCWS in OKC! #WCWS Day 1 lineup in Oklahoma City (Thursday), 5/31 will look like this: ..............................(1) Oregon vs. ( Arizona State, noon (ESPN) BRKT 1 ...............................(4) Oklahoma vs. (5) Washington, 2:30 p.m. (ESPN) ...............................(2) Florida vs. (7) Georgia, 7 p.m. (ESPN2) BRKT 2 ...............................(3) UCLA vs. (6) Florida State, 9:30 p.m. (ESPN2) Looks like the #1 through #8 seeds advanced to the WCWS, although #11 LSU, #15 aTm & #16 Kentucky took #6 Florida State, #2 Florida & #1 Oregon, respectively, to the limit of best of 3 games. Not sure how much to make of the fact that #16 Kentucky took #1 Oregon to 3 games and #15 aTm took #2 Florida to 3. The Florida-Aggies series was close throughout, with Florida winning the first game 5-4, then Aggie winning Game 2 by the same score 5-4, and Game 3 ending with a walk-off homer in the bottom of the 7th, with Aggie leading 3-2 at the time. The Oregon-Kentucky series, OTOH, looks like UK hit Oregon in the opener 9-6, then the Ducks coming back and winning the last two handily, 6-1 and 11-1. Obviously, OU haS to take it one game at a time and beat the Huskies in the first game, but the Oregon Ducks look to me to be the team to beat this year, then maybe UCLA.This is the WCWS Bracket complete with elimination brackets for the losing teams to try to fight their way back into contention. If I remember correctly from last year, the two losers from Bracket 1 play an elimination game with the winner advancing back into play, but into the opposite bracket; same with Bracket 2. (EDIT: not true. It was true last year, but this year there is no cross-bracket play until the Championship series). I know, getting way ahead of myself. I really get into women's softball, especially at this time of year (WCWS)... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
