Dani Wexelman (whoever that is) on Sirius College Radio put LSU on alert today saying that Kentucky is a team that could give LSU some fits. "The Tigers have had trouble in the 7th, 8th and 9th innings and that could be a recipe for disaster in Baton Rouge."

Damn! I was looking forward to going to Omaha. Guess I'll cancel my plans now.

It’s the super regionals. Every team is on alert as the other team could give them fits.

Oh no, one person said a team that's 40-19 might give us a few problems. I'd rather him say that vs this will be an easy sweep of UK.

Reporters have opinions. Nothing more, nothing less.

We outscored the Beavers 6-3 in those innings Monday. I hope we continue to have that trouble.

So someone thinks a team that gave us fits in the regular season will give us fits in the post-season. And what are we complaining about? Kentucky has a good team. Their coach is douche.

Some of our fanbase are so sensitive that nothing short of reporters getting on their knees and sucking the Tigers off in praise of them would suffice.

Call in and ask him what has been Kentucky’s trouble in their last 7 3-game series.

1-6.

At this point in the season every team can be anybody on any given day. If LSU comes to play then I feel very confident against anyone. The team seems to be locked in too so thats another good thing.

Also side note interesting that Ty Floyd said Grant Taylor is the strongest player on the team. That was interesting.

The previous trip to Baton Rouge for Kentucky 7th, 8th and 9th innings.

Game 1 7th and 8th (ten run rule game) LSU 2 - KU 1
Game 2 7th, 8th, and 9th LSU 4 KU 6
Game 3 7th and 8th for LSU 7th, 8th, and 9th for KU LSU 3 - KU 3

So with 7 innings for LSU and 8 for innings KU they outscored LSU by a whopping 1 run LSU 9 - KU 10

And the eighth inning was the killer, looking at the box scored it started like this.

https://www.secsports.com/boxscore/baseball/401497286

quote:

D. Burkes hit by pitch (2-2 SSBB).
J. Felker reached on a throwing error by p, SAC (1-1 BF);
D. Burkes advanced to second.
N. McCarthy hit by pitch (1-0 B); J. Felker advanced to second; D. Burkes advanced to third.
Mound visit.
C. Stanke singled to center field, RBI (3-2 SSBBB); N. McCarthy advanced to second; J. Felker advanced to third; D. Burkes scored.
G. Smith flied out to cf, SF, RBI (0-1 F); J. Felker scored, unearned.
Previous play review, call is confirmed, runner did not leave 3B early.
J. Gray singled up the middle (0-1 S); C. Stanke advanced to second; N. McCarthy advanced to third.
Waldschmidt walked, RBI (3-0 BBBB); J. Gray advanced to second; C. Stanke advanced to third; N. McCarthy scored.


That was epically bad, probably one of the 3 or 4 worst innings we had. Probably the worst with Herring. Pitching has been on the upswing as it is. How often will we start the inning loading the bases without giving up a BB or a hit?

Add to that it appears pitching has improved at least a little (I'd say quite a bit) since that Kentucky series, I doubt that 7th, 8th, and 9th will be the difference in this super that gives KU the win.

You sound like when Mahtook got mad on Twitter earlier in the season because an analyst said that LSU’s weaknesses were the bullpen and defense. That guy ended up being pretty spot on. Try not to get offended by everything

I view this weekend as a 50/50 type of situation.

We have to play well.
