Horns have won matches against Arizona, Notre Dame, and Texas A&M, all 3-1.  

Next up, a road match in Houston against the dreaded Rice Owls!

I wish.  It's been a decade since we last won a volleyball NC.

We're a swimming and diving school.

We're a gym school.  

But UT has good beisbol, that will help y'all fit in around here.  Lots of SEC schools love their baseball.  I never made it to Disch Faulk, BUT maybe I will one day, and I definitely recommend any college baseball fan take a trip to the Box.

Honestly, I enjoy going to baseball games a lot more than football games.  Mostly because there's less pressure, there are so many of them, that each and every one is not do or die.  Plus, baseball is just a more relaxed sport.  Oh, and parking and entrance/egress are much easier, with fewer fans.

Playing beisbol in the SEC is going to be a lot of fun.

All true.  

I would not necessarily say baseball in Baton Rouge has a relaxed feel though.  10k rowdy fans who think they're at a football game makes for a pretty good time.  I think I prefer it that way to the more usual sterile crowds baseball attracts.  Some part of this fanbase has to be rowdy 'cuz lord knows the football crowd can't be bothered to fill the place up anymore.

Baseball crowds in Austin are still into it.  You should go to a game at Disch-Falk, then you'll see what I mean.

I remember my days at UT during baseball season if there was a day game more then likely a few classes would be skipped

Yup.  In the spring I'd do my best to set up my schedule with all morning classes, just so I was free and clear for baseball games in the afternoon.

Many, many days of morning classes, then lunch at The Posse, and then walking over to the Disch for an afternoon of sunshine and memoriies.

On top of a really bad day of football, the Longhorn volleyball team also lost its first match of the season up in Waco yesterday, 3-1.  They split the season series with the Bears, taking the first match 3-0, the prior day.

Bummer, but hopefully they can learn and grow from it.

Horns won their first round match against Sacred Heart, and play the second round tomorrow against Rice.  Texas swept the Owls in Houston earlier this season and should win again tomorrow, but ya never know.  Rice was Texas' sole regular-season loss last season.

Baylor won its first round against TAMCC, and will play Wazzu tomorrow in the second round.

Kansas won its first round  against Oregon, and will play host Creighton tomorrow in the second round.

ISU, KSU, TTU, and WVU all open their first round matches tomorrow.
