This schedule is brutal, not going thru this thing unscathed. I wonder how it stacks up with the rest of the SEC?

GIVE IT TO ME!

[Todd4State]

Well no one will complain about our RPI.

We'll still have people complaining about the SWAC teams we play though.

Oh, the complaining will be there about a myriad of things.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Can any of our catchers catch and throw the ball?

[EdwardDrayton]

We're good buuuuut ......... stop .... no hedging. Just 17ing win.

[SaintDawg]

GIVE IT TO ME!

Yep. I want all the smoke. I understand in being careful with what you wish for, but you got to put BOC and the players in the deep end from the get-go. This is big boy baseball.

[Offshore Dawg]

Just think that after a midweek loss or a weekend series lost how enjoyable this board will be.

With our pitching depth and depth overall- losing a midweek to somebody not named Southern Miss would be unacceptable this year

Bourbon is your friend, but after 50 years of Bulldog sports very little bothers me now.

I have 8 bottles of Eagle Rare just in case.

Hey, man. Can you please change you PFP so it’s not my wife anymore? I would really appreciate it****

I agree. We will have depth all the way through the batting order. So we should put up runs against these midweek teams. There shouldn't be any black holes in the lineup.
