If lsu makes it out of the super, who would you rather face? Obviously, the winner of that game would have the advantage of making the finals.

I’d rather Root. Also Tenn is more fit for a deep run

It’s gotta be Root simply because Arky doesn’t have all the bullpen arms after Doyle like Tenn does.

Rather play Arkansas. If we were to lose it is much more palatable to them than the hurricane of jawing from the orangemen.

Also remember beating arky in Omaha in the past.

Let’s not get over our skis here. Gotta get another win before we think about that.

If you have watched any ball this year, you’d know that Arkansas likely has the deepest bullpen in the country.

What? Arkansas has one of the best bullpens in the SEC. You have it wrong here. Tenn is the one who doesn't have much depth.

Their bullpen keeps getting them in trouble in games.

That’s what I thought. Of course they beat both at home this year but I would rather not have to face Doyle

I feel like the Saturday night opening game is basically to see who plays in the final. Two best teams on that side of the bracket will play each other

I was just basing my comment off of Tenn having 5 top draft prospects according to to mlb.com

Arky had 2 to be fair

Not a good way to judge a bullpen. That number includes starting pitching. And using LSU as an example… last year we had Hurd, Coleman, Little drafted out of the bullpen amongst others. Do you consider those guys reliable?

People who get paid to write about such things may not agree with you. But I’m sure you’re right and they are stupid.

Since they are gone, I must admit that I don’t think about them much

We beat Arky 2-3 and should have sweep.

So you don’t have your own opinion. Fitting. Stick to football.

I mean do you watch baseball? They have talented arms but they're super inconsistent. They have arms that can shut you down when they're hot but they're not reliable. They have similar problems as LSU only LSU's pen is typically better. You get past Doyle and they have problems.

Honestly believe if lsu wins their regional vs. WV that the winner of their game vs UT/Arkansas wins the national title.
