Message: [QUOTE="Ozimoto, post: 3985697, member: 6677"] I think Patrick Murphy figured FSU didn't have the offense to keep up with his team and he could go with his number two starter and still win the game. I'm sure that he wanted Fouts rested for the first game of the championship series against Oklahoma and with the additional rest she would be available for game three of the championship series if needed. That play got torpedoed when the Seminoles forced a second game that Alabama then had to win. I don't think anyone expected FSU to get this far in the tournament as the 10th seed. Heck, they didn't even win the ACC regular season title or their conference tournament. Loni Alameda has done a great job managing her staff. No, she doesn't have a dominant pitcher, but she has three effective pitchers who are different enough in their style that she can get through a game without having the opposing team face any one of her three pitchers more than two or at most three times as they go through their order for most games.
