It's a very nice stadium. However, if we don't either change the balls or the bats in college baseball, being a nice stadium doesn't really mean much.

This is about it for me......we are a fan base full of excuses. Why can't we just accept the fact that we couldn't get it done this weekend. It wasn't the damn bats. OSU, MSU, UNC, etc have hitter that are being very successful in TD Ameritrade with the same type of bats and balls that LSU used.

We didn't make the adjustments and do what we needed to do to win against teams that pitch great....simple as that.

I just got back from Omaha. I watched several games including ones LSU didn't play in. My feeling is that it has nothing to do with the balls--they were common to every team all year and I don't think it was a problem. The trouble lies in teams playing all year in stadiums with one set of dynamics and then advance to the tournament to determine the national championship and play in a stadium with a different dynamic to the point of altering the out come of games. There were several shots that should have been home runs in games having nothing to do with LSU.

Just an observation. Doesn't make much sense to me.
