Selection show? MSU going to Hattiesburg

[preachermatt83]

I'm not seeing it on my guide. I know it's supposed to be on at 11 but does anyone know what channel?

[msstate7]

Someone said espn2 at 1130 last night

[msbulldog]

ESPN2 @ 11:00 AM CDT

[CadaverDawg]

Shows Mike & Mike on the guide, but it's at 11 on ESPN2

[TNDawg35]

The guide is all screwed up on directv. It is showing it on the espn app that it is on ESPN2 at 12, which i guess would be 11 here...

[TNDawg35]

Its on ESPN2 now...

[msstate7]

Hope all the usm predictions don't make the committee send us somewhere else just to not let the predictions be right

[msstate7]

Louisville #7 national seed after losing 7 players in top 150 picks last season? Did I hear that right? Dang

[Quaoarsking]

Vandy sent to Clemson, matched up with Oregon State in supers

[TNDawg35]

Glad we didnt go to Clemson being matched with OSU...

[Quaoarsking]

No SEC team gets sent out West.

[TNDawg35]

Were going to USM...

[Coldsleeve Jr.]

Hattiesburg it is!!

[msstate7]

Good deal... love it

[msbulldog]

USM I LIKE IT!

[Pinto]

Paired with LSU

[msstate7]

Welp... no cws this year.

[msbulldog]

Damn matched with LSU.

[TNDawg35]

Looks like well see Lange again if we make it... LSU has a damn cake walk!!

[Activated Alpha]

I like it. I'm not scared of LSU and would love to take away a Omaha trip away from the cajun cousins. However, we have to take care of business against South Alabama and USM. LSU though got a very favorable matchup.

[ShotgunDawg]

17ing LSU can get to Omaha without having to play a single power 5 team. That absurd

The committee has to be more aware of talent levels. LSU has no power 5 teams in their regional and its matched up against USM's regional.

[WSOPdawg]

safe to say LSU getting a lil preferential treatment from the selection committee

[WSOPdawg]

holy shit, and Houston gets Baylor, aTm and Iowa whereas LSU gets zero nada no none Power 5 teams... what a 17n joke!!!

[msstate7]

USA ace is randy bell...
98.1 ip 108 h 41 er 19 bb 93 k
Era = 3.77
Whip = 1.30

I'd take my chances with Cole on Friday vs them

[lamont]

Well, no chance for us to sneak into Omaha

[Quaoarsking]

Well, no chance for us to sneak into Omaha

Just like we had no chance to sneak into a Regional two months ago?

Everyone needs to chill out. Anything is possible in baseball. Of course we are going to have a hard road to get to Omaha when we're not even a host.

[TNDawg35]

No shitbears... Gotta love it...

[Todd4State]

17ing LSU can get to Omaha without having to play a single power 5 team. That absurd

The committee has to be more aware of talent levels. LSU has no power 5 teams in their regional and its matched up against USM's regional.

This has been going on for years with LSU. I'd be more surprised if they had a power five team in their regional.

[Dawg61]

South Carolina didn't get in. Bye bye Holbrook

[Todd4State]

I like the regional match up. I'm not scared of LSU but I wish we had more than six pitchers we could use against them if we make it that far.

[TNDawg35]

I may have missed it, but wasnt Rigby suppose to be back by end of reg season?

[msstate7]

We faced USA twice early this season using our weekend guys:

Pilk...
7.2 ip 4 h 0 er 2 bb 13 k

Plumlee...
5.1 ip 5 h 1 er 1 bb 4 k

Should plumlee be considered to start game 1?

ETA... plumlee started midweek game vs them too

3.0 ip 1 h 0 er 2 bb 4 k

Totals for plumlee...
8.1 ip 6 h 1 er 3 bb 8 k

[Dawg61]

Well, no chance for us to sneak into Omaha

SLU Lions gonna shock the world

[Barkman Turner Overdrive]

3.0 ip 1 h 0 er 2 bb 4 k

Totals for plumlee...
8.1 ip 6 h 1 er 3 bb 8 k

Agree. That and Pilk vs the Buzzards on Saturday gives us the best chance to the winners bracket on Sunday.

There's 2 ways to look at it....

1. We CANNOT afford to fall into the losers bracket

2. If we can beat USA without pitching Pilk, we are in great shape to win the Regional

I say, this season is a gift anyway, so don't play it safe...pitch Cole or Plumlee in game 1 and play to win this damn thing by saving Pilk. If we had a deep staff and lofty expectations I might think differently, but screw it...let's play to win it

[lamont]

We overachieved greatly. But we aren't beating LSU

[Dawg61]

We won't play LSU again this year so we don't have to. Watch them relax after seeing their regional and get put out.

[msbulldog]

Sorry RP we can beat LSU and while you're at it make me a 12 hard taco special all spicy and include a lot of fire sauces!

[nsvltndog]

On a positive note, if LSU somehow screws up their regional, I don't see any of the other teams in Baton Rouge as potential Super Regional hosts.

[LC Dawg]

Southern is going to do their best to make sure there is no maroon in their stands, especially if we're playing them. I'm an hour away and I'm going to call in a few favors but I still don't expect to get tickets. I may go stand in the parking lot and ring my cowbell just to piss them off.

[preachermatt83]

Oregon st North Car, and UF all have cake walks into Omaha.

[Dawg61]

Correct and we would absorb LSU's path meaning we wouldn't face a team ranked higher than LSU till at the earliest in the NC semifinal in Omaha vs Oregon State

[Dawg61]

Maybe the best way to get tickets is to get UIC and USA fans to buy them for us

[Todd4State]

It sounds like we're throwing Gordon in game one. I approve.

[msstate7]

It sounds like we're throwing Gordon in game one. I approve.

I do too. Good call, Cann

[Jack Lambert]

Were going to USM...

You don't think USM will try that same shit ULL did just to keep home field advantaged?

[msbulldog]

Go for it Brother Dawg!

[lamont]

That 3 game series in sville says otherwise. It wasn't even close

[JDog13]

It's already happening.

[preachermatt83]

Where u seeing this?

[Dawg61]

That 3 game series in sville says otherwise. It wasn't even close

Fake news. After 14 innings of the 27 innings series it was 7-5 LSU.

[Steakonastick]

I reached out to 1 of the 13 USM fans about tickets. They just got a email from the school saying if they sell their tickets to opposing fans they risk having their eagle club rank revoked. Haha they are so worried about state fans taking over.

[Barkman Turner Overdrive]

You don't think USM will try that same shit USM did in the 2015 football season opener just to keep home field advantaged?

FIFY. And absolutely yes they will. Nobody is more Busch League than State Teachers College.

[WSOPdawg]

If they're gonna be like that, we need to make sure we don't schedule them in ANYTHING in the future. Let'm win the battle but make sure as hell they lose the war!

Same with ULL, weren't they the ones that made it near impossible a few years back to get tix to the regional?

[Pedro Cerrano]

17ing LSU can get to Omaha without having to play a single power 5 team. That absurd

The committee has to be more aware of talent levels. LSU has no power 5 teams in their regional and its matched up against USM's regional.

Yeah. LSU never has issues with non-P5 teams.

Stony Brook. Houston. Coastal....nah. GTFO.

Since 2012, their only losses pre-Omaha have been non-P5s (7).

[WPDawg]

Pete Taylor only sits 5-6,000. There are 5-6000 die hard Southern fans and the Hattiesburg/ Pinebelt area is serious about their baseball. Any game with Southern will be a tough ticket.

[lamont]

Fake news. After 14 innings of the 27 innings series it was 7-5 LSU.

Where was it after 18 innings?

[lamont]

Yeah. LSU never has issues with non-P5 teams.

Stony Brook. Houston. Coastal....nah. GTFO.

Since 2012, their only losses pre-Omaha have been non-P5s (7).

This is the best LSU has been in awhile and they are peaking at the right time. Would be shocked if they aren't one of the Final Four in Omaha

[RocketDawg]

The guide is all screwed up on directv. It is showing it on the espn app that it is on ESPN2 at 12, which i guess would be 11 here...

The guide is screwed up on Dish too. Not sure about ESPN, but I know it is for the Science Channel. Must be the holiday.

[RocketDawg]

I reached out to 1 of the 13 USM fans about tickets. They just got a email from the school saying if they sell their tickets to opposing fans they risk having their eagle club rank revoked. Haha they are so worried about state fans taking over.

Empty threat. I don't see how they could justify doing that. And how would they know anyway ... might be a close relative they give the tickets to.

[Jarius]

That 3 game series in sville says otherwise. It wasn't even close

A lot of that series was self inflicted with the walks. If we pitch better we can beat them in a 3 game series.

[msstate7]

We faced USA twice early this season using our weekend guys:

Pilk...
7.2 ip 4 h 0 er 2 bb 13 k

Plumlee...
5.1 ip 5 h 1 er 1 bb 4 k

ETA... plumlee started midweek game vs them too

3.0 ip 1 h 0 er 2 bb 4 k

Totals for plumlee...
8.1 ip 6 h 1 er 3 bb 8 k

Plumlee has had major success vs USA. Probably should've started him bc of past success

[I seen it dawg]

Plumlee has had major success vs USA. Probably should've started him bc of past success

Lol be good for you to have baseball end
