If we're fortunate enough to get 13 hits again we need to score more than 5.


Then hit more doubles.

13 hits sounds great, but LSU hit 11 singles. It's not just getting hits, it's getting hits for power. Scoring 5 runs off of 15 total bases is actually a pretty decent return. It typically takes three singles to score a single run, from a bases empty situation.

The offense turned a corner, but it's not there yet.

It has much more to do with being 5-21 (0.238) with RISP in these two games. You TB stat is nice for your argument, but there have been plenty of runners in position to score and we haven't come through.
