Padgett’s walkoff made it onto Barstool Sports, already over 1.1 million views. The consensus is that it was the most “savage” batflip since Bautista 2015 ALDS lol.

Fun to watch…I think most of us believed this team was dead after the 17-16 loss at Tulane, but credit this young team for hanging tough and never giving up. That said, we have been pretty bad on the road this year, so we will see what happens at ECU, which is another huge series…Go Coogs…
