Sadly, the series loss to Iowa State is a killer in terms of regular season championship…still winning the first game is huge
Couple of you guys look really foolish right now. Not that Aycock was the right move, but as soon as she was announced as the starter, the game was already over as far as you were concerned. In fact, I think one comment said “we conceding the game to Maxwell.“ For as much as we don’t like being called little brother we sure do act like it a lot of the time.
Was watching on TV and thank God there was NO BAND PLAYING THAT DAMN SONG OVER AND OVER AGAIN! You all know the one I am talking about!!!Hey kelly maxwell...

Maxwell left with her team down, and they never tied it again, so she gets the L. Aycock left with the game tied at 2, and Kilfoyl took over and we took the lead, so she gets the W.

I think most people reacted the same (I asked "what the f are we doing?) And that was a reasonable response. It worked out, but I'm sure Kenny and Eberle didn't envision all of the wild pitches and walks. Honestly, had Kilfoyl just pitched those innings we probably, win, too. Maybe 6-1. I guess the benefit was a few less innings for Kilfoyl. Did Kyra gain any confidence from it? Not sure.
I only saw one person mention losing. Not sure what "little brother" has to do with this situation.

No doubt, when I saw the lineup I was just getting ready to post it, then the replies were already coming.
Saying the game is over before a pitch is thrown because of who the opponent is….is the very definition of little brother.
We’re so guilty of it as a fanbase now we don't even know what it means. Not directed at you, just an observation.

Oh I definitely know what you mean, though. I hate OU as much as anyone, but I don't have this need that some do to prove something to them. It's strange to me.

That's pretty awesome. This team has a chance to do real damage in OKC.
Another note: that was OSU's first win in Norman since 1997, my freshman year of college

I said what I said
Coach G made an astoundingly prescient move, we used to use the process he used tonight. You start your other pitchers and use your ace as the reliever. You get to spread the ace’s innings out and you bring in the ace when the starter runs into trouble. It does work, you just bargain on getting two to three innings out a game out of the other pitchers and hope like crazy you get enough runs to make it work.

Great win for these young ladies…..I am so proud of them.
When I saw that Kyra Aycock starting tonight….i was shocked. But I got to think maybe…..just maybe Gajewski might hold Kilfoyl for game 2 kinda like Mike White at Texas does by pitching his best pitcher(Gutierrez) in game 2 instead of game 1. And then hold Ivy out till game 3 where she gets an extra day rest from her injury.
But I also like the idea to keep our pitchers from pitching a complete game. Specially against top teams like OU.

Man that Iowa State series is going to come back and haunt us if we win this series but lose the regular season championship to a team we won the series against.
Welcome to the chat with perfect hindsight a day after the game. I think everyone discussing in real-time last night just wanted someone to make it make sense.
Now let’s take game 2!

Kenny G and this team have earned our trust and support. What they’re doing is amazing. Whatever lineup he sets, fine, let’s go win.
Last time we took game 1 from them they came back and whooped our butts. Plenty of work to do.
