We now have 3 runs in our last 25 innings against SEC pitching. Having guys like Poole and Lovelady come up in key situations is not normally going to work well for you against top level SEC pitching.

Bottom line is we don't have but maybe 3 or 4 high level D1 hitters on this team. We're pieced together pretty much like a MS juco all star team playing in the best baseball conference in the land. All this will hopefully change in the coming years.

Hey, we got Poole up second next inning so at least we get that out before the ninth!
His hitting is like shooting pool with a rope!

We struggled against Georgia pitching for the exact reasons we struggled tonight. No plate discipline. We also appear (sans Rooker) to not have a gameplan or awareness of the situation. For instance, Lovelady's at bat. Lange has 122 pitches and wants to get ahead in the count. He served up a down the middle fastball that Lovelady let go by for strike one. What was Lovelady looking for there?

First sec game of the year... ark won 3-1. Gridley got a first inning hr in that game also. Think this series will turn out the same way.

Why is Plumlee still in there? Our coaches make some dumb moves.

If we lose this game tonight which is most likely happening it's all on missed opportunities and poor hitting. The plate discipline has been pretty terrible tonight

Lovelady has an absolutely awful AB to end 7th and his pass ball is gonna cost us any chance in this game.

Our lineup is just ****ed at 3 spots and LSU is taking advantage of that

If Poole can't get that ball to the plate there, there really is no reason to start him.

That might have cost us the game pitching Plumlee in the eighth. Let's just shelve our best pitchers when the game is on the line.

When we had the bases loaded for 2 of those guys, you have to PH. We let lsu take advantage of it

If I was being honest I'd have to say yeah. But I hope I'm wrong.

Why the heck is Macnamee not playing instead of Poole anyway?
