Longhorns Season Over

The baseball season is officially over for me. The Longhorns lost to TCU in the Austin Super Regional showdown over the weekend in a best of three match up. I was pretty concerned when TCU won the first game Friday as their pitching looked great, but then the Horns came back and won the Saturday game 14-1. Unfortunately the TCU pitching dominated again on Sunday and the Horned Frogs won 4-1. It was a great season for the Longhorns who went 50-13, with a stretch where they won a record setting 21 games in a row.

It is a shame Texas had to face TCU in the Super Regional, as both teams were ranked in the top 5 and should have been at the College World Series. I think the regional game format needs to be redone as there are too many good teams in the southwest knocking each other out and lesser teams making it to the CWS.
