re: Rank the most important NON-game winning hits in LSU baseball history

That's four pretty good ones. I'll throw in a few more:

1997 - Larson's HR against Rice which gave us the lead. That ball still hasn't landed.

2000 - elimination game against Florida State. The game is tight late, but I can't remember the score and Cresse lines a double off the left center field wall. I think it gave us the lead. We win and advance to play Stanford.

2017 - opening CWS game against Florida State. We're down 4-3 in the 8th. Cole Freeman is on 1st. Duplantis hits a single to right field and the FSU defense turns into the keystone cops. Freeman scores. Deichmann then singles to score Duplantis for a 5-4 lead. Zach Hess comes in from the bullpen and does the nasty on FSU.
