College Baseball Regional Previews: Atlanta, GA

Atlanta Regional

1. Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (35-17-1) vs 4. Georgia State Panthers (39-20)
2. Elon Phoenix (40-16) vs 3. Southern Miss Golden Eagles (35-23)

Winner to take on champion of Gainesville Regional.

Head Coach Danny Hall brings another talented Yellow Jacket ball club into postseason play in 2009. The Jackets are led by All-American starting pitcher Deck McGuire.

McGuire (10-1, 3.15 ERA) has been the Tech ace all season, and will likely be a first-round selection in next week’s draft. Past McGuire, the Jackets will look for quality starts from Brandon Cumpton and Zach Von Tersch, who have been steady all season. They also feature a solid bullpen, which includes four pitchers with ERA’s under 4.00. Offensively, Luke Murton (.363, 18 HR, 57 RBI) and Tony Flagman (.357, 16 HR, 67 RBI) lead an offense that has a team average of .318.

Recovering from SFD (part 2)

Barring winning the lottery or getting blown by a porn star, recovering from SFD takes more than one happening or occurrence (much like the beginning of SFD). And that’s how it was for me.

Recovering from Sports Fan Depression

It took me a little while to get over my sports fan depression, but I was finally able to make a full recovery and write my first post of the new year last Saturday.

Did he just say “sports fan depression?” Yea. That’s what I said.

Oh? You’ve never heard of SFD?

You may not have heard of it, but you’ve seen or even experienced it.

The Blue Workhorse Week 15 College Football Top 25

There was a great competitive matchup for the SEC title and then there was a blowout where the opposition never even looked prepared for the Big XII title.

Another week means another re-evaluation, and thus, we give you our new The Blue Workhorse College Football Top 25 after Week 14. Some things to note from this week’s rankings:

The Blue Workhorse Week 14 College Football Top 25

Oklahoma won impressively yet again, and it was just enough to bump them past Texas and into the Big XII championship game. With a win, they appear to be destined for the national championship against the winner of the SEC championship game. Too bad Texas can’t replace Missouri in the championship game. Now that would make for an entertaining championship weekend.

College Football Predictions: Week 14

My selections last week were pretty good. I only missed two games. Of course, I did miss the big one. I thought Texas Tech would at least put on a better showing in Norman.

This week, however, I’ve got all the winners with a couple of unexpected upsets during Rivalry Week:

#3 Oklahoma at #12 Oklahoma State

There will be Bedlam in Stillwater this year. This year’s rivalry game may have the most riding on it in the history of the series. Oklahoma comes into the game with the apparent advantage and fast track in the Big XII South. With a win, the Sooners should be have the advantage in the BCS standings and, therefore, win the tiebreaker between themselves, Texas, and Texas Tech.
