UH gives up 5 two out runs in the 5th and trails now 6-1.

The news you were all desperate to hear: The Conference USA championship game has been delayed by inclement weather. The new start time is 1PM CDT.

Horns up 1-0 bottom of fourth. Need the rain to hold off for about 30 minutes.....

To the B5 go the Horns and Cowboys. Awaiting the torrential downpour.

The Texas game goes to the sixth with the Horns leading 1-0.

Five full innings played. Come on rain.

Uh-oh. The Horns have a magic spoon.

UH and ECU go to the ninth with the Coogs trailing 6-1.

1-1 UT/OSU

Make that 9-1 UH trails in the 9th. Texas and Oklahoma State tied at 1-1 in the seventh. Conference USA championship game has begun.

OSU goes ahead, but then makes three errors in one inning to allow UT to tie it again.

Lucky Longhorns. Evil Empire still batting in T8.

UT's lucky spoon at work.

Now 5-2 Longhorns in the top of the eighth.

The Cowboys fall on their sword. First hit for UT in the inning plates three(?) more.

UT's going to win because Oklahoma State can't field. Sound familiar?

UT's going to win. Alas.

Good things happen if you can bunt.

Let's see, three errors, two squeeze plays and 4 runs later the lucky spoon people still bat in the eighth.

OSU scored the exact same way. The difference was that UT didn't help them out with errors.

That's the postseason model now: monopolize starting pitching, field well, wait until the other team screws up. It works, but I wish they would put some juice back in the bats.

6-2 Horns.

These guys are the worst possible 4 seed to show up in someone's regional. Very dangerous pitching.

Gotta hope UT gets sent to a place where the host plays the same kind of cynical wait-'em-out baseball.
