It think we just lacked focus last night. Coming back hone after nearly a week on the road, early in the season, Mardi Gras day, poor weather conditions most of the day, etc. But we fought through it and found a way to win. Thats a big positive. That's a level of resilience that can transfer to games down tge road.

Ware looked fatigued to me. Looked like he was lazy mechanically.

90 downvotes sums it up but, this is baseball. Every night there are games that are close and they shouldn’t be.

There are many games that the better team loses, this happens in baseball more than any other sport. Just remind yourself of these facts before posting.

Sometimes the opposite happens, the team believes they are the best and plays swagger

If being tagged #1 effects this group of players like you are implying then its good they got that ranking now rather than late in the season. Gives Jay the chance to tighten them up and fix it.

The sun shines on a dog’s arse every now and then, but it set on NDSU before the game ended.

Watching highlights of Tennessee and Radford is up 3-2. UT has hit two solo 390 foot HRs to straight away center. We'll be fine...

So many people think baseball is like football and if you have a bad game you just are not gonna have a good season. It’s a mid week game. Relax

Receiving the #1 ranking is another form of pressure that the team did not handle well last night. You want to see a team handle that and take on the challenge of knowing they are the best. This same time of year in 2023, that team went on the road to beat Texas on a Tuesday early in the season and took care of business and handled the pressure.

They just got done playing a rescheduled game last Monday, followed by traveling to Dallas for a game Wednesday, then to Frisco for 3 more games this weekend, then traveling back to Baton Rouge. They probably had an off day Monday and then had to get out and play a nobody last night. I don't think it had anything to do with them feeling the pressure being #1. They've had a long week and came out sluggish for a midweek game. It happens

OU and Florida both got run-ruled last night, and Tennessee was in a dogfight with Radford until a big 8th inning.

Florida the 7th ranked team in the nation just got 10 run ruled against UCF. A&M just went from 1st to 13th. The point is teams are still figuring out who they are right now and some will figure it out faster than others. Rankings mean absolutely nothing still.

Many factors involved. I don't think yours in one of them.

i mean theh pitches like shite, went down like 7-1 and then battled backs o in without hitting in the 9th.

you’d love to see us not give up 9 to NDST but the offense showed up.

The only people I was genuinely disappointed in were Cade and Wade because I expect better from both of them.
