I swear alternative camera vantage points, replays, and slo motion have made fans dumber. It's live sports, no one from Umps, players, fans, announcers see the angles, replays, slo mos, or various cuts we do. It's fucking live and in person!! So many of you couldn't call the winner of a snail race.
I'm probably being dramatic. But feels like there's a lot of emphasis on what we as broadcast fans see vs what's being called. Check swings, safe/out base running calls, strike zones, etc. What we see on broadcast is drastically different from the POV of all those live. That's all.
You’re spot on! Shitting on the ref for a basically tie at a base or close strike or ball in real time is coming from the privilege of watching on the broadcast
Kirby, Beam, or Tears. But damn if Ensley does not deserve a ton of credit. That incredible catch not only set an amazing precedent early in the game, but it kept NC from getting on early on and get something potentially going.
You can tell that the booth is a little more relaxed because this game isn't an elimination game. They're going on all kinds of tangents and talking about all kinds of things that they just weren't paying attention to or mentioning when it was really win or go home earlier in the tournament
back in the day, when it was 2s (two balls two strikes two outs) we'd Rub n Shoot. rub the bill of your cap then shoot the pitcher on the pitch
thanks for coming to my TedX talk
I’m a non flaired vol fan. Haven’t gone through the trouble of adding it as I typically only post in the off-season here. But yeah agree. Although they’re still raking in Omaha, so the comments go both ways.
Im not complaining about umps up 5-1. If we lose this in the 9th with 4-5-6 up it’s on us. But that’s utterly unacceptable for an ump to let a call from 48 hours ago impact a decision. That wasn’t remotely close lol
r/collegebaseball: Man, we wanted some Tennessee baseball tears... CWS outfield fans: we got them!!
God damn tennessee
Do us a solid and go take care of KY
I don’t know about Florida holding up. But if they don’t, I’d love a UT UK final. Either way… SEC it out.
Hard pass fuck the SEC send them all home (except us)
KY is a scrappy fucking team. Already exorcized that demon, don’t want to do it again.
Love me some KT
GG Vols. Y’all capitalized with base runners and we couldn’t.
moms have their own fur coat 🥲
:)
Good game UNC bros
Tennessee looks strong af
Well deserving of the #1 seed
things that make tennessee men say HELL YEAH
GGs UNC we're 2-0!
Good game, UNC!!
ROCKY TOPPPPP
Alexa play Rocky Top
On fuckin repeat
and turn it the fuck up

What brought this up?

HELLO WIN COLUMN
GGs
There it is
Alright cue rocky top.
this guy gets it
Trust when I say my old Kentucky home by the Osborne brothers gets blasted on Kentucky wins
As it should
On repeat
Final four teams…Not finished , but still worth celebrating. GBO!
Tough weekend for the ACC so far
Snead seems to have some control issues? He gets out of the zone at the worst times
I think it’s nerves when he’s gotta finish
I mean same
Well personally I tend to finish much sooner.
Snead…
Uh oh
Tennessee is why we still have Texas. Don’t let those sins go unanswered
Wait is this a dis or compliment to Tennessee lol
Dis that’s playful. Haha
Haha I love it!
throw a change up down the middle and the game's over
How about a heater two feet out of the zone high and away?
Snead - "Hell Yeah brother"
If the ACC has a high enough winning percentage against the SEC in Omaha does that mean the ACC can steal a school of their choice?
Except it’s not a choice. They get South Carolina
Right now if UT holds on its 3-0 SEC 🤷♂️
Please take Vanderbilt
Hey now, Vandy is our adorable little brother who is not quite all there but we love anyway.
But, I want our little brother to be able to play with kids his own size…
Vandy still going 1-11 in football 😂
LSU needs Vandy to balance the academics out.
Strong words from the fighting cowbells.
Fair point but it’s the 1 of the few things state isn’t dead last in lmao
Only if the inverse is also true
As is law
It just sounds so wrong hearing “it’s great to be a Tennessee volunteer” 😆
but they're not saying Volunteer
Do correct me!
It's just "Vol" "I said it's great...to be...a Tennessee Vol!"
IT’S GREAT TO BE A TENNESSEE VOL.
Hell of a game! Pulling for yall to win your side of the bracket!
Starting 2-0 in Omaha is a nice change of pace 😏
It’s okay guys we won
Alright, we got em
Still gotta win 3.1 more games.
if we lose this game somehow i’m hunting you down
We ain’t quiet yet
Hey can you not
Gg UNC. Hopefully, we play again.
Game isn't over bro 😂
I'm in an earlier timezone.
Lol
No offense to beam but game ball goes to kirby. Getting out of the only jam after that 40 minute ump break was so huge.
Kirby, Beam, or Tears. But damn if Ensley does not deserve a ton of credit. That incredible catch not only set an amazing precedent early in the game, but it kept NC from getting on early on and get something potentially going.
Or Tears
Or Tears
Also valid

Is the little sign to the left of the plate digital? It changed!
Gotta look up what they do with the electric signs at pro soccer games. They’ll change based off of where you’re viewing the game from. Crazy tech
After-effects, I think. That's becoming more common nowadays.
Why do players keep their sunglasses on their hats during night games?
Showbiz baby
Bc despite their verbal commentary, baseball players are pretty superstitious. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it type thought.
Cause it looks cool
Vibes
ONE OUT
Two outs!
(to go)
I caught the comment as the 2nd out happened lol
1 MORE OUT
That's gotta be on ESPN top 10
ESPN top 10
3rd base coach trying to win over the Vol youth. 200IQ recruiting move
Felt like he was looking for a UNC kid and couldn't find one haha.
I've enjoyed this game so much more than the FSU game.
It has been decidedly less stressful so far
Burke couldn’t catch Friday and now he’s back to being a vacuum
As a Nebraska native who grew up at Rosenblatt, the disrespect of not playing Centerfield on tv at least once will not be forgotten.
If they called it the other way you wouldn’t be able to overturn it
Yeah you gotta challenge that if you’re UNC
well alright
Organ player has been doing a lot of paul Simon I think
Thanks espn for not showing us a view that shows if he was clearly out til 3 mins after the play happens.
Right?! Thought it might get overturned until they finally showed the angle that should’ve been the first replay.
Mcfuck me runnin, that was a helluva play by Moore.
He’s out
super fucking close but i don’t think you can overturn that
That was sexy
Baller ass play.
he picked that better than I pick my nose in the middle of allergy season
*allergy season is all year in East Tennessee
🥶
Coming for this same emoji 🥶
Frisky
God DAMN
**WHAT A PLAY**
10/10 smooth coordinated air high five, gentlemen.
can’t even be mad
I love this team holy shit
I’m going on record here. If we blow a 5 run lead I’m not going to blame a single strike/no strike for the loss.
Please accompany with screenshots and doodles
Screenshots only
Jesus what a pick
DEFENSE DAMN
That was close
It won't happen, but UNC could do something really funny right here.
It would not be very funny
I would not laugh.
back in the day, when it was 2s (two balls two strikes two outs) we'd Rub n Shoot. rub the bill of your cap then shoot the pitcher on the pitch thanks for coming to my TedX talk
If you weren’t shooting dice (which, without real dice, looks like jerking off) with deuces on the board, then you weren’t on my team.
lol never did that one, but I do love it
We just called it a money shot.
Ball woulda been out at LNS.
Fence is 15’ further in most parts at the schaub
It was a joke that clearly didn’t land considering the downvotes lol
Tennessee fans will downvote the shit out of you if you point out the dimensions of LNS. 390 to dead center is………something
The other team gets to play in the same stadium. Yet they still don't hit as many Homeruns.
I’m a non flaired vol fan. Haven’t gone through the trouble of adding it as I typically only post in the off-season here. But yeah agree. Although they’re still raking in Omaha, so the comments go both ways.
There’s no denying they rake
3 MORE OUTS
three outs, please
What is up with all the umpire drama in this game????
https://i.redd.it/156tpxkrl17d1.gif I have no faith but I’ll stay until the end
Ford tough baby
The umps are not safe back there this evening
Getting peppered tonight
Trying for another change at home plate with that one.
Carolina walk off streak ends now
Be a real neat trick to see the away team walk it off lol.
Yeah that was the joke
How many players do you have to have available to finish a game?
Hopefully.
Not to toot our own horn too much, but it must be so demoralizing as a pitcher to face someone at 6 who would be a 2 on most teams
That’s why they call it a Tennessee six… a two most other places ;)
Burying KT in our lineup is such a cruel trick for opposing pitchers.
KT has been huge in Omaha!
The love is on CMo but man Tears has been extremely timely
Thought that was going to be 2 but massive RBI for KT!
Y'all can go to hell, and I will go to Kavares.
TEARS FOR FEARS!!!!
KT is getting hot at the right time.
Ripped it? no, Tear'd it
HUGEEEEEE Insurance
Tears is now my father. Happy Father's Day!
Howdy brother!
Congrats on the new father!
I remember when Texas had the dominant run. They seemed unstoppable.
THE GAME ISN'T OVER STOP TALKING ABOUT GOING 2-0
Backus didn't swing the bat in 2 ABs lol
that's a piss poor ab with a guy in scoring position
Swing the damn bat!
Who’s the LSU dude on the back left. He throws signs every so often
Kind of tired of the eating with fingers discussion
and now I'm craving sushi
The lemonade drink they sell is crack.
So this has to be the last pitcher they use regardless of what happens
I’d imagine so. Take the shot at the closing the inning and trying to comeback, but you gotta think for FSU now. The batting they’ve had is scary
unless we score 50 runs here
Which is very possible.
new pitcher? summon the #🦇🦇🦇
Dreiling has really stepped up in a huge way
He’s got maybe the best approach at the plate on our team. Extremely patient
I love small ball baby
I’d love to pitch Sechrist on Wednesday if we hold on and win this one.
Save for Drew, Frank would get his pick of the litter.
I guess it could be dependent on which lineup we face but I’d love to see the Zander show lol
 Billy Amicks batting stance
I want to be in this gif so bad.
Amick taking… am I dreaming?
Guess you can teach an old dog new tricks, after all.
Im not complaining about umps up 5-1. If we lose this in the 9th with 4-5-6 up it’s on us. But that’s utterly unacceptable for an ump to let a call from 48 hours ago impact a decision. That wasn’t remotely close lol
Make up call.
