I thought the announcers were pretty fair. I went and watched it with my grandparents and they thought they were actually pro-arkansas. As for the umps- both ways I thought.

Agreed.

Announcers pointed out multiple times it was a pitcher's strike zone all day, from the get go. And they were correct, and that was for both sides. Zone was very low and quite a bit outside. Arky used the low all game; LSU used the outside.

I will say the only pitch that stuck out to me was a low ball on Deichmann; same pitch but slightly lower followed, it was called a strike. I want to say this was 6th inning but not sure. ETA: based on the zone all day, BOTH these calls were wrong. Bass ackwards. Guess that's why it stood out to me.

Guy yelling "swing" was annoying. Not Vandy whistler annoying, but still. Thankfully it was only for Arky's last bat so I figure he was into it and trying to help Newman out (who could use all the help he could get).
