Dawgs vs SWAC

Beans in the 2-hole...Seton Hall catching

A little shakeup?? I like Reese in the 3 spot. He a power hitter and gives him a chance at knocking in more runs. Good game for MM to see what he has for a starter and please no more SWAC games. We get nothing playing them/

We really don't. It's an RPI killer and ends up being either HR Derby or we struggle to adjust to a 71 mph fastball and can't score for 6 innings.

Every SEC team plays SWAC games and thats not going away. We help fund their programs

Anybody else's audio "muffled" on the telecast?

1 is ok. 3 is too many. This was a Lemonis schedule. We will see what BOC does.

Ugly game for the Tigers. 5 errors. 12-0 in bottom of the 4th.

Chuck has the Cerantola gene...

Sully needs to sit and reset. We have plenty of DH candidates.

17-1 bottom of the 6th

Parker hits the ball about as hard as you possibly can.

Fortunately BOC said Ace is fine and pulling him was just precautionary to ice it and not aggravate anything.

After that yawner hopefully we'll have a little excitement with the WBC.

One of these per season is plenty. We certainly don't need 3 of them. Not only do they drag down the RPI they are a total waste of time because they don't help us get better. We might as well play a high school team. USM doesn't play any SWAC games.

These games allow us to play the whole team midweek which does make us better and keeps players happy with some playing time. Who gives a shit what the Nasty Bunch does? They dont pay like we do- thats why SWAC's play the SEC teams- for the money.

Parker can flat swing it. Lot to look forward to.

Then let's just play Delta State or Mississippi College. Better competition and we can accomplish the same thing without it even factoring into the RPI since they aren't Div 1.

The 1990's ended. It's rare D-1 plays D-2 in baseball now

RPI is only problem in the SEC if you lose midweeks. Playing SWAC is not the problem

We are better off playing MLB teams in Spring Training. If the boys get run-ruled by the Atlanta Braves that won't factor in RPI but the development is awesome. Even playing A and AA is better than SWAC. Doesn't Memphis have a Cardinals farm club.

LSU/Grambling 3-1 in the 5th
