327 overall vs. .280 in SEC games. Baseball Gods have humbled us in SEC play.
What is the actual batting average for each?
Not sure these are all that drastic given SEC averages historically drop from OOC play.
I wouldn’t expect a huge reversion

The problem with these kind of stats though are they are so subjective on their own. Would be interesting to see the average exit velo or percentage of hard hit balls playing into that number. Just seems like a lot of the times in SEC play there aren't a lot of 'loud' outs in my opinion. But I would agree that it seems like other teams have been catching breaks against us, like all of the doubles down the line, etc.

One could argue our hitters have been unlucky in SEC play, with our opponents being pretty damn lucky at the same time.
Not necessarily. That could also mean the batters are chasing the pitchers pitch the gets them to hit ground ball outs and pop ups.
Whitey Herzog built his team around this philosophy in STL. He put a gold glove defense behind rag arm pithers like John Tudor that would throw 80 mph slurves at the bottom of the strike zone all night. He would often go 7-8 inngs and have 14-20 ground ball putouts and popups.

Why would it trigger anyone. Of course HRs should be omitted. There is no luck involved in a ball hit over the fence being a hit, and this stat is meant to give an idea of luck.

BABIP is dumb. You can make up a stat for anything. Take your calculator and stick it up your butt nerd.
