re: Offensive Talent vs. Offensive Coaching

I'm as disgusted as anyone about the performance(or lack of) this weekend, but how do we have no talent and sorry coaches and still win the SEC. Must have been a real down year for the conference?!?!

record in one run games
a handful of timely hits can mask a lot

For example, look at games 1 & 2 this wknd.
LSU was totally outplayed in game 1, got a few timely hits (happened to be HR which is more powerful & less likely) & squeaked out a win with a hugely unlikely scenario.
Game 2, SB throws a complete game 3 hitter...a couple timely hits & LSU wins and is going to Omaha.
None of that changes the fact that SB is a better team with better players that outplayed LSU this wknd.
