    This is about as close to a must win as you can get. 1-9 in the SEC and needing probably 13 conference wins to get in the NCAA tournament.

    It’s hard to play or watch the game without seeing some fire out of our guys. So let’s turn the heat up and get after’em Gators!

    It's going to be in the lower 90's today. That should help.

    Sure hope they got Aiden’s mechanics cleaned back up in his bullpen this week. He had gotten too long in his stride and was almost leading with his elbow out front.

    He needs to get back to staying on his power line, driving down through his pitches with his release and follow through “on time”.

    Hope that’s the Aiden King we’ll see today.

    First time this season we had a singer for the national anthem, and dang she was just awful.

    Would really love a feel good game today… let the pitchers go down hill from a big lead.

    Man on 1B / 2 outs

    B/Ks/B/Balk moves runner to 2B/Kc - Nelson hits to 1B, who misses the ball but short gets it in time to throw home to get the runner out. Crowd goes wild over the showoff being out.

    This may very well be a calculated move to motivate the team.
