S-W-E-P-T



This is a first for Worldclassglass. For the first time that I know of, I have posted a broom to signify a sweep of the Rebels by their opponent. Ole Miss was defeated by Alabama in all three games this weekend losing 12-2, 9-8, 9-2. Aside from maybe one inning yesterday the Rebels did vey little. On Friday Satterwhite was rocked, Saturday you know the story, and on Sunday Lynn had a good performance before having to be pulled for Bumgardner to take another loss. The production at the plate was minimal.

The only real good was the top of the ninth on Saturday when Cozart hit a grand slam to put the Rebels up 8-7. Then we decide to put in Will "the Thrill" Kline to finish out the day for the Rebels. As many of the readers of this site would agree, this was an awful move. We all knew what the outcome would be when he went in. After several runners got on base, the Tide eventually rolled past the Rebels.

I said the Rebels needed to win 2 of 3 to be competitive in the league this year. Based on the outcome it is not looking good for the Rebels to even make the SEC Tourney. It is still my honest belief some major shakeups need to take place on this team for us to be successful.
