No question that GT is a better team than we lost to the last two years.
Just said they were inferior and also inferior to Clemson and UVA who we beat 2-1 One loss wouldn’t have been that much of a shocker. It’s really the MSU and Charlotte losses that are hurting the most now. When we get upset early season, people comment that it’s too early to put so much weight on those games. But, our margin for hosting is always very small. So, those games do matter.

It's not a loss of focus. It's ball! Baseball, Softball, Stick and Ball.
