the goal for this regional, is to avoid Gerrit Cole at all costs. This kid is absolutely disgusting. I'd assume he'd throw there first game and I really hope it's not against us.

Not sure, they may save him depending on what they think Kent State.

Conversely, does LSU go with Renaudo or Ross vs Irvine?

I tend to agree with you. If we were playing a weak #4 seed I could see PM saving him. But Irvine is obviously legit.

MUST start Ranaudo against Irvine's ace. I like Alsup against UCLA personally, but wouldn't be mad if he started the championship game.

Hopefully UCLA takes Kent State lightly and it comes back to bite them in the arse.

you never know. I've seen a lot of teams throw their ace game 1 no matter what. They know that if they just win that first game they're in the driver's seat.

One thing I do like though is that LSU has a pretty damn good track record for destroying future stud draft picks. Especially in the early 2000s...would be nice for that to continue here.

UCLA is 1, LSU 2, they wont meet until the second game if they both win the first one.

yeah I see that now, I just panicked when I opened this up and saw that we were in the UCLA regional.

i don't know. Tort Tiger swore up and down that Cushing never touched juice so I'm pretty sure he knows more about baseball than pro baseball players.

Cushing never touched the juice. It was a false positive...

Remember what we did to their stud pitchers at the Box in 2000?
