If my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle ?

Anyways Wofford didnt pitch their ace as a strategy. He wasn’t available

A whole lotta what ifs there. Pitch your ace and save your bullpen.

LSU had saved their ace for game 2 eleven out of twelve times when hosting as a 1 seed and actually even did it once as a 2 seed on the West Coast before Jay arrived.

We’ve never lost a game 1 when saving our ace.

Did we lose today?


So Jay made the right call.

I’m glad we didn’t save him today or we’d be in the loser bracket.

FWIW, I think we would have better offensive production facing their ace than facing their #3 pitcher we faced today and their coach made the right decision to give their ace more rest.

We needed every bit of our ace today to avoid the L.

Great call by Jay.

We'd be left standing with our dicks in our hands right now.

They'll still win, but that would be awful if they somehow lost holding him.

Now they have to use up arms early.

I think it's a prime example of why you do.

They will probably squeak by this game and then roll with Hagen tomorrow.

Arkansas is playing a 4 seed. We were playing a 3. 2-3 is not the same thing at all
