I’d say that elimination games count as big ones. They (he) won 5 just this year. I get that it was a bitter defeat but, you’re out of your depth with your comments.Dan McDonnell can NOT win big games. What in the world was he thinking sending Smith back out there in the 9th. McDonnell is the Don Zimmer of college baseball.
You don’t think that was a “go on contact” play?Snyder sending the runner with a hit to the short stop cost us dearly.
Neither of the Burdi kids were terribly reliable in situations like those.Smith was at 107 pitches to start the 9th. Against a team like Vandy, you have to go with your closer in a one run game. It wasn’t like the starter was trying for a no hitter or even a shutout at that point.
I do agree that McAvene had not been pitching lights out lately. Had he been throwing like Nick Burdi, the decision in favor of going with the closer would have been more clear cut.
Perhaps baited for the intended purpose of stoking their side up?Vandy set out to rattle his cage and they succeeded.
AND Vandy had no hand in this?!? No worse than this big mouth post of yours! I for one can do without the likes of you pulling for us. Screw you & SC.No , Luke Smith big mouth, as ESPN said on sports center, wrote a check he couldn’t cash. Should let his arm do the talking instead of his (FU) mouth. Karma is a bitch. Was pulling for you till then. Go Blue!!!
Like we care what a fan of a program that has been to one super regional in its history cares. Go back to your own Board.No , Luke Smith big mouth, as ESPN said on sports center, wrote a check he couldn’t cash. Should let his arm do the talking instead of his (FU) mouth. Karma is a bitch. Was pulling for you till then. Go Blue!!!
Shore up your program and maybe we get to smack you fellas around again in next year's Super...again.Go Blue!!!
Are all Michigan fans DBs?No , Luke Smith big mouth, as ESPN said on sports center, wrote a check he couldn’t cash. Should let his arm do the talking instead of his (FU) mouth. Karma is a bitch. Was pulling for you till then. Go Blue!!!
Lol,and here I had him pegged as a UK fan.Are all Michigan fans DBs?
The subtle difference of “Go Blew” and Go big Blew.Lol,and here I had him pegged as a UK fan.
It's the subtle distinction between has-been football program and never-been football program...The subtle difference of “Go Blew” and Go big Blew...
Luke reaction to Vandy player mouthing off with a FY wasn’t smart. You don’t use your energy & emotions in these situations. Vandy set out to rattle his cage and they succeeded. I thought for sure the pitching change would happen for the start of 9th. But what do I know. I’m just a fan. Great run by the Cards. Omaha Four is huge success. I expect a trip to Omaha next year and plan to check it off the bucket list then.
Insert the BS flag here!I don’t think the Vandy player (Julian Infante) was mouthing off. Infante isn’t wired like that and videos show no such incident.
Smith just got too fired up.

It is very common for teams to try to get in a hitters or pitchers head. There are reports the Vandy players were saying things throughout the game that were typical in baseball. Lets just say a camera caught the one Vandy player calling Smith a fagot in the ninth and that wasn't the first time that was said. Again that just happens in a game. Smith unfortunately forgot he was the center of attention. He will learn from it.
Lol - please post video of VU player calling Smith a fagot.
I hope that's not true but if so, kid needs to be disciplined imho.
So, you think our guy said FU out of nowhere? He was entirely unprovoked? Talk about Lol.
I think it’s major fan homerism to try and defend Smith’s behavior all night, much less the FU stuff. If that type of behavior is ok with you, more power. I know I would be embarrassed if a VU player acted like that.
Im a little surprised to read people defending that or deflecting saying it was somebody else’s fault.
Just to be clear, one of my best friends is a UofL grad and he texted this morning saying he was embarrassed, so I’m guessing only a few feel like it was acceptable.
This is what I'm having trouble wrapping my head around. Why???? He just went off?? In charge??So, you think our guy said FU out of nowhere? He was entirely unprovoked? Talk about Lol.
Not defending. Just saying it takes two to tango. There’s a zero percent chance Luke went off for nothing. This is the same guy who was at a children’s hospital offering support hours before the game.
