With the NCAA Tournament waiting after the SEC Tournament, the Texas A&M Aggies are looking at their upcoming opponents knowing they won't be bringing any pitchers into the game on limited rest.
Splitting the first two games — one of which was heavily influenced by weather — was an acceptable outcome, especially given Arkasnas' status as one of the nation's top programs. Naturally, it would have been ideal for Texas A&M to sweep the series and gain control of the SEC West, but that wasn't a top priority for coach Jim Schlossnagle and company.
The Aggies were watching the rest of the conference standings as the regular season wound down. Florida won one of its last games of the year over The No. 9-ranked Georgia Bulldogs, which secured a top-four position for the Aggies. That's why they felt significantly less pressure against the Razorbacks in Game 3 — and perhaps why they were able to run-rule them in seven innings.
" top four in the league," Schlossnagle said, looking ahead at the SEC tournament. "I feel confident will put us in good position for the NCAA Tournament, which means that his week, I'm not going to bring anybody back on short rest."
