LSU record for fewest walks allowed per 9

Checked the media guide for the records coming into 2014. Here are the season and career records, both held by Chris Cotton ( 
):
Cotton 2013, 3 walks in 46.2 innings (.58 per 9)
Cotton 2010-2013, 16 walks in 127.1 innings (1.13 per 9)
Aaron Nola in 2014 has given up 2 walks in 27 innings (.67 per 9)
Nola has given up 27 walks in 242.2 career innings (1.00 per 9)
Nola is just a great pitcher, trying to appreciate how great he has been since he stepped on campus. His 2014 is shaping up to be historic and he has started better than he did in 2013. Zero earned runs allowed in 53 consecutive innings dating back to Arkansas in the SEC Tournament.

Chris Cotton was a walk on whom wasn't even given a practice uniform his freshman year. He had to buy his practice pants and stuff... Good for him earning those records.
One of the best underdog stories at LSU.

There are probably a lot of college pitchers from the 90's who wish they could have pitched in this era when you can throw strikes with little fear of being lit up.

If you've never pitched to a -5 Easton Redline, against a hitter who has spent the last two years eating creatine for breakfast and spending hours upon hours in the weightroom, you don't even know.

The mantra in 2014 is "pound the zone". I doubt if they used the same slogan in 1995 and 1996. If I had pitched during those years I would have stood on the mound and just refused to throw the ball. Nothing good was going to result from throwing the ball anywhere near the strike zone in 1996.

Some games the philosphy was to actually throw fastballs off of the plate on the first pitch. You hope to get the batter to swing at a ball, or maybe the umpire gives you a called strike on a ball 8 inches off the plate. If the count became 1-0, throw an offspeed pitch in hope that the batter will get himself out on that pitch. If that didn't work, you were screwed.

If you pitched during that era you have both my sympathy and respect.
