It's easy to point out folks who are hopelessly stuck in the rut of confirmation bias when it comes to this sort've thing here. Whether it's a positive or negative outcome, moreso than ever there can be no measured or balanced discussion. You MUST choose a side or pick a position.

This team can play hot and cold and absolutely has throughout the year. Life-like baseball-is not binary.

It's sad because if folks could loosen their death grip of pride holding their opinions then some great conversation could be had. But it is what it is. What's important to them isn't the mixed, gray-colored bag called reality, it's the white or black piece of real-estate folks have staked a claim to who are more worried about it being RIGHT.

Hey dumbass this is a site for LSU fans. Most true fans aren't happy when their favorite team isn't playing well and they come here to vent...this is the tiger rant and we are fanatics of LSU. If I ever get to the point t that playing poorly doesn't bother me I probably wouldn't post.

Negative threads about negative posters are the lowest form of internet.

This is the most senior and talented team I can remember at LSU, we are all elated that they're playing well.

Hopefully HESS, Walker, Peterson, Gilbert will give us the best depth we've had since 2009! Also we have to turn into a singles hitting team like last night. The long ball does NOT work in the new stadium in OMAHA! Geaux Tigers!

Nothing wrong with venting, but the morons who called for CPM to be fired, claimed he didn't know anything about baseball and said this team might not even make a regional (let alone host or get a national seed) should go away and stop posting. They are reactionary millennials and this board, as well as our fan base, would be better off without them.

The guys are playing much better baseball than earlier in the year.

The last few years we have been hot heading into the post-season only to cool off when it matters.

The fact remains we still have a coach that does some pretty boneheaded stuff in regards to pitching changes, as well as completely throwing out the notion of playing small ball.


I'm cautiously optimistic, but I've seen Maineri leave a guy in too long far too many times and I've seen him refuse to put down a bunt to move a potential run just as many times.

Some call it negatiger but I call it being competitive. If you are fine with losing then can have the positiger to yourself

I'd say some of the more reactionary, miserable posters are the (seemingly) older ones. It never does cease to amaze me how many people loudly and proudly display their ignorance of the game of baseball year in year out (and even game in game out) any time there's any semblance of adversity.

SEC tourney really is meaningless and LSU is in best shape since they get a day off

Fla has nothing left to play for
LSU after this UK win really doesn't need anymore wins
USCe probably needs to at least make title game to get in regionals but probably passed up Ole Miss on the pecking order
Miss St is fighting to host but probably needs to win thing to host

Gilbert Game 1, Lange game 2, Poche game 3, walker game 4 (if necessary).

Hopefully walker rests so he can be ready to go for supers.

You'll be the first fricking dork to start high fiving the opposing team if we lose in the supers.

Win-win. If they're winning, we're happy, if they're losing, we're right. Never had so much fun being wrong.

" so you lie in the weeds"

It's amusing how thin skinned the negative types can be. They can piss on staff, players, and team for months, but when they get called out for their lack of faith in the team they claim to support they get all pissy and start claiming there is still time for the team to fail. Talk bout a drama queen.

For fans who claim to be so smart bout college baseball, it's amazing to me that many don't seem to understand that the season is not a sprint but a long distance race.

The baseball team is already a success. All that's to be decided is how big of a success it will be,
