Correct. It’s not the best interest of the team to win the regional though.


So, based on Labas' starts since the 124 pitch game, but more specifically the last 2, LSU is better to start him today and likely have to pull Labas somewhere during or after the 2nd-4th innings and likely burn at least 3 more pitchers to finish the game? There is no winning the regional if losing today. You guys act like there are 2-3 more quality starters and 5-6 high leverage relievers in the bull pen. After watching the last 5 innings of UO-C CN yesterday LSU definitely has the weakest lineup in this regional if that wasn't already a given. I have more trust in Hilliard having a competitive start that anyone else, and hope some luck falls LSU's way in any remaining games.

If Paul really had designs on winning the regional he wouldn’t burn his best remaining arm against the 4 seed. He has no such designs though so it’s moot.

Again, it’s the coach bunting to avoid 0-2 that’s disappointing. This program should not be in this position. I’m not sure how many times I have to post this.
