Florida at South Carolina Game Three Open Thread
The Gators rode a clutch performance to an SEC Title last night, so today's game means less than we had hoped it would. However, there's still a lot to play for here: we're still in contention for a national seed, and a win today would certainly help us. I would also hate to see us get swept.
From what I understand, Nolan Belcher, Tyler Webb, or Jay Brown will start for the Gamecocks, and we should expect a by-committee approach. The same goes for Florida, which will start Brian Johnson but may not play him long so they can save his arm for Hoover. The Gators don't have as much to play for here, so don't be surprised if you see some new looks from them. Chat about it in the open thread.

You deserve to get swept.
As payback for the sweep of my Razorbacks last week.
Seriously, though, good luck today.

Isn't this series in Columbia?
See? Poetic justice.

That's exactly what I meant.
Luckily, it looks like we might avoid the sweep if we can get some relief pitching.

1-0 Gamecocks in the bottom of the second.
Difference has been another Matthews HR. He’s had a very nice series.

Third pitcher for the Gators. They're taking the committee approach.

And then Matthews pops up a bunt.
Why on earth are we having Matthews, as hot as he is, bunting?

Gamecocks up 7-0 in the sixth. JBJ hit a grand slam.
Of course, now, after the series is lost, we start getting the clutch hits
Oh well. Feels good to be winning again.

good lord
USC goes into top of 7th with 8-0 lead and exit with 8-6 lead. The SC bullpen has made this interesting.

It's a small consolation, but 21 SEC wins is pretty dang good.
Most years, that wins the division. Unfortunately, Florida was just a bit better.
