But check back with me tomorrow night after the doubleheader. If we lose 2 more tomorrow and get swept again and have an 8 game losing streak in SEC play, we are probably in serious trouble.

My feeling is on these weekend series is that we are going to get whipped in one game, have a decent chance to keep the other 2 games somewhat close and have a chance to steal at least one.

This is getting ridiculous, we were sitting at 27 wins and need 29 to qualify for an at large bid to the NCAA tournament, and all we had to do was go 2-9 in our last 11 games, 6 of which were in Columbia and 2 of which were against Wichita State. Now we are down to 7 games left, and we still need 2 more wins, and we kicked away good chances to win 3 of the last 4 games. The odds are we still get there, but if we don't we have no one to blame but ourselves. If we go 1-10 down the stretch, then we don't deserve to get an at large bid, regardless of our RPI or toughness of schedule.

Someone needs to step up and make a key play in the field, or get a key hit with runners on base. Baxter is giving us a chance in a lot of games, and kept us close enough to steal a game tonight, but just isn't getting the support. She is the MVP of this team and no one else is even close; without her we would probably finish 10 games under .500.
