It was their only chance. Pitching staff is awful and absolutely no depth. Save your best for the best team. It was the right move.

Funny, but still the right move. Throwing number 2 was right risk to take tonight. They had 0 chance vs LSU without ace. They're done.

No, ULL is still saving their ace for LSU, because they still believe they will win the next couple of games...

The ace is not pitching tomorrow? Well that's just crazy.

What would've put them in control in the regional is a win in the first game. They assumed they'd win and made a bad call.

If they don't throw their ace tomorrow, it's an even worse call.

why? They should save him for sunday. Does sending their ace out to beat Jackson st give them a better chance at winning the regional than pitching him against Sam Houston/LSU?

He shouldn't pitch tomorrow. They're going to score 15 runs on Jackson State.

Losing this game brings their chances from about 15% to about 2%. It's over. Need to just stay alive at this point.

You're making the same assumption ULL made today that didn't work out at all.

Your suggestion is even worse since if they don't win tomorrow, they go home.

ULL will not throw Robichaux vs. Jackson State. They will outscore the SWAC team and stay alive.

Robichaux will pitch against someone on Sunday, presumably SHSU in an elimination game.
