We can look at this is a Th/Fr/Sa series where LSU HAS to sweep, yet without our best starter.

Series we have swept this year:

Feb 13-15: Kansas
Feb 20-21: Boston College
Feb 27-28: Princeton
Mar 6-8: Houston Classic
Apr 2-4: Alabama
May 8-10: Missouri


TCU will either throw their #2 in Alexander or their "best" stats guy in Traver who has a 1.60 ERA and a WHIP under 1.00

Vandy will have Buehler (Fri) and Fulmer (Sat).


We have a very steep hill to climb here.

Don't worry, Mainieri will set the lineup just right for the occasion.

Let's just take it one game at a time.

Both TCU and Vandy are really deep. We've put ourselves in a very difficult position. If we're fortunate enough to get 13 hits again we need to score more than 5.

The offense will have to explode over the next 3 games. They are actually due to catch fire, but I still don't like their plate discipline and approach, particularly in clutch situations.

I do believe we barely won game 1 of the 2012 super regional IN BATON ROUGE the went on to lose the next two to Stoney Brook. Stoney fricking Brook.

Steeper hills have been climbed faster. We got this!

yup, as far as I'm concerned, Hawthorne has 5 more games to call.

they pulled this off in the SECt in 09. But, not against this kind of pitching.

I'm not really worried about TCU, I'm worried about beating Vandy twice.

Honestly, our perceived strengths this year were hitting and pitching depth/bullpen. It's time to step up.

Plus you never know what can hapen with rain delays, could knock starters out which would benefit us.
