The Bushido is in full recovery mode from Dallas' evening of debauchery. As you all know, I was a bit steamed with Ga. tech's win over my beloved CofC Cougars. Given a choice between the lessor of two evils, Clemson or Tech, I pulled for Tech. But with a loss from the Tiger Nation, and the Heels beating the Titans, today's game was a different story. Armed with a snoring Dallas Campbell, three hot subs from the Firehouse and my fellow Tarheel fan, Craig Blackmon, we buckled down to watch today's elimination game.
Remember it took the Heels extra innings to defeat the Titans. So, the Bushido pulled for Cal State fullerton to send the "I heart Tech-a-bees" home to Hotlanta. Although I pulled against Tech, I was glad to see Chucktown all-star Matt Weiter (GOOSE CREEK!) play today. Matt has a heck of a game playing both roles of starting catcher and pitcher in the 5th and 6th inning. The "buzz" on the street is that Weiter will go 1st in the draft next year. Tech held the Titans tight and kept the lead until, with two outs, a pinch hit took a wild roll off the wall at the top of the 9th, bringing in two runs and giving Cal State Fullerton the lead. CSF added one more to end Tech's chances of sticking around Omaha. Cal State Fullerton defeated Georgia Tech 7 to 5.
The game was as exciting as college baseball gets. However, our true excitement will happen in about an hour. When the Clemson v Carolina game gets rolling. I know many people think Clemson's cardiac will grab the Heels by the horns, but if I may offer this one word of advice from Yoggi Berra, "It ain't over until it's over". If CSF can flush their mistakes and turn the tide to win against Georgia Tech, than anything is possible. GO HEELS!
