Yes, we sucked on offense for the last two weeks but guess what, we still won 2 of 3 against UGA and probably could have won the third won if no travel restrictions.

Takeaways

This is our best pitching staff in the past four seasons. Lowest ERA through 29 games of the previous 4 years.

Our hitting is down and is probably the lowest it has been in a long time by this time of the season but guess what...we can bounce back from it. Most of those teams went through the slump AFTER this point in the year.
