Now that the portal is in full swing- only 21 SEC Freshmen got as many as 50 AB's this season.
So its not just us. In the Portal Era- freshmen arent playing much these days unless they are bigtime guys.

But that Sleeping Giant that is LSU has been awakened. Would not surprise me to see them go far in Hoover. They are going to hurt somebody's feelings in a Regional!
That is how you recover from a slow start in a quasi-rebuild year. Not fall completely off the face of the planet for 2 years like someone we all know and love!

Eh, their A&M series was big but they still lost twice to Alabama. OM looks like they've folded and UGA is the most overrated team in this conference. I'm amazed they're getting top 8 talk. If not for the SEC, we sweep them. I think they're better than the start of the season but I still think they fall short unless they get help (and they may).

Georgia has no pitching and some teams, apparently not USCe, have figured out if you don't leave pitches up Condon won't hit them out.

LSU is the best program in America. They should never fall for long.
I don’t think they are in yet. They need a couple more wins

Gonna be a tougher game tonight than we thought apparently. Hailstate.com says the Bearfins are ranked #12 and we are unranked.
Is it too much to ask that our own media get it right?!!!? Sheesh.

They wouldn't put our ranking, as they haven't all year. They're ranked #12, as in the #12 seed in the tournament.

Thanks SVS. Should have occurred to me it was seeding.

Sleeping giant isn't what I would call LSU at the moment. More like a professional midget wrestler. Georgia isn’t the team their ranking says they are.

I say MSU just focuses on beating OM and ending their season. Then just take elimination and a trip to Santa Barbara. Rest the arms and focus on the regional.
Game-1 vs 3-Seed on a Thursday California night: Pitch JC for 4 innings, Hardin 3 innings, Black for 1 Inning, and close with Davis 1-inning
Game-2 vs 1-Seed on a Friday California night: Pitch Stephen for 7 innings, close with Dohm 2-innings
Game-3 vs Tired 1-Seed on Saturday California afternoon: Pitch Pico for 3 innings, Auger for 3 innings, Harding for 2 innings, and close with Davis 1- inning
Head to Fayetteville
Game-1 vs Hagen: Pitch Pico for 4 innings, Auger for 1 innings, Hardin for 1, and Davis 2-Inning (WIN) - Alternative, Pitch Lefty CJ for 2 innings before Davis.
Game-2 vs Tygert: Pitch Stephen for 8 innings, close with Dohm 1-Inning (WIN)
Head to Omaha with 5-0 record, no sweat

That's crazy. And the best freshman are in the SEC. It's no joke.

This sounds like something an Acadian degenerate would say . Can’t even pump out a sewage tank without bringing up the “tigahs” . They did what they always do last year when things get stagnant. They steal from their citizens and buy enough to get them a title and claim it’s all through donations. Which is what their default reasoning always is. A lie. It’s always underhanded and involves their politicians. There is nothing in Louisiana but Lshoe sports. Anything here that is nice they overrun it and destroy it then make fun of everyone else. The state of MS is leaving them in the dust .
If you call beating a few scrub teams down the stretch and then a team that was focused on the real tournament awakening that’s a low threshold. Like I said this sounds like a inbred coonass statement.

No doubt. And they may have punched their ticket to help the SEC set a record with 11 teams in a Regional next weekend

LSU is rounding into form. If they get a favorable regional I could see them making it to the Supers.
