Thought we would beat Florida based on their average/not so good pitching.

After the 1st game on Friday, thought we'd take them in 2 games due to their pitching. Also think that might have still been the case if we don't have that rain delay pushing that game into Saturday that we wouldn't have to finish first. We got lots of runners on base Saturday but didn't get them in to score. That seemed to be the key. They also switched pitchers enough to keep you off balance. Still if the near grand slam hits on Saturday, we probably do beat them on Saturday and are in the WCWS, so that was just bad luck. Where was the Blacksburg win when you need it? Florida was definitely better defensively on Sunday, when for some reason our defense was just off all game (errors from the 1st inning on).

Well no. Most teams only have one or two stud pitchers. UF has none.

To answer that original question though, there is no way around it!
