On the Diamond

I don’t know what this says about me, but I’m up early enough that there’s no preview of tonight’s game. Here’s a recap from Thursday night’s win over Ole Miss. Additionally, UCLA beat Oregon on Thursday evening, which meant that Oregon and Ole Miss would play an elimination game, which Oregon beat Ole Miss last night 6-5.

Texas Tech and UCLA face each other tonight at 6:00 p.m. with the game on ESPN.

On the Track

Texas Tech track and field was in action this week in College Station, the men wrapped up yesterday and the women wrap up today.

On the Gridiron

CBS Sports’ Brandon Marcello & John Talty recaps the SEC spring meetings, which you may have SEC-fatigue, but things did not go as smoothly as they wanted:

As for how much work actually got done, well, put it like this: A week that began with hope for progress on the conference’s touchstone issues of preferred playoff format and future schedule ends with no resolution and perhaps an even murkier timeline than we had thought headed into the heat of summer. As quickly as a good idea was suggested (LSU’s Brian Kelly proposed an annual scheduling alliance with the Big Ten), it was shot down. Bad ideas like international SEC games were shot down, too (at least for now). Nagging frustrations like the lack of transfer portal reform continue to eat at coaches.
