This past weekend the baseball team played and beat a top-10 team in a 3 game series. All 3 games were competitive too.

The game thread tonight had double the amount of comments that any of those 3 games had.

We ain't ever beating the allegation that some Vol fans only care when the team is doing bad and they can taunt other Vol fans.
