5-0
48-17 (+31)
3HR+/game

Weak super regional opponent is the only thing that taints it, can't remember a more dominant performance in regional/super regional play.

It’s been a strong performance.

The 2000 team destroyed the whole postseason from SEC tournament to national championship.

It’s been a dominant season minus 3 weeks before regional.

We have been ranked top 5 all season. We had unrealistic expectations with people thinking they would go undefeated.

Kentucky was a weak opponent but I’m pretty sure LSU could have played anyone this week and they would have rolled them. They were on a mission

That 2000 team had a pretty strong showing.

5-0 with a +53 differential.

But I'm really happy with this team!

ETA: Of course, I'm like the 4th one to get this in!

Still worth mentioning again!

A 40-19 Kentucky team is not exactly weak imo

Cresse was so damn fun to watch in the postseason in 2000. He was on an absolute tear.

One thing that has changed since LSU's last World Series Championship is that the SEC has gotten much more competitive in baseball. Since our last championship in 2009, six different SEC teams have won the title. I think that makes the accomplishments of this year's team even more impressive.

Kentucky was not a weak Super Regional opponent. They are extremely tough team with a good pitching staff and they utilize their small ball offense well. Anyone who doesn't think Kentucky was a good team is mistaken.
