1986 LSU Baseball team

Killing a little time during the game last night I looked at the 86 team schedule in the media guide.
The 86 team was actually 46-9 during the regular season. So why is everyone making a big deal about the win last night. The 2013 team still needs another win to set the record unless I'm missing something.
Another interesting note. The 86 team played 7 games in the SEC tourney 2 against UGA, 4 against Bama and 1 against Florida St. Going 4-3. What up with the Florida St game?

This is the school record for wins since the NCAA instituted a 56 game schedule in 1992. Before that teams could schedule as many games as they wanted.

What's up with the ridiculous number of games? What's up with 3 losses?
The SEC obviously didn't have their shite together.

Good point. Probably guaranteed in fact.

The SEC media guide says that LSU only played 3 games in the SEC Tournament tha year, winning all 3.

The ole "Baseball on Boardwalk" game at somebody's spring training facilty in Orlando. One of the few college baseball games shown on tv.
Also, Joey Belle dropped some bombs in Omaha that year.

LSU Media Guide has the following:
SEC Tournament - In Baton Rouge, LA
5/9 - UGA W 10-6
5/10 Bama W 10-7
5/11 UGA W 8-4
5/17 Bama L 1-5
5/17 Bama W 4-2
5/18 Bama L 2-8
5/19 at Florida St L 4-6
Over 2 weekends seems odd. Maybe the SEC tourney was the first weekend and then impromtu games were played the week between the SEC tourney and the NCAA regional.

Miami had a good, side-arm releiver. Belle hit one off of him, that either hit the large scoreboard in left-center field, or cleared it. But I remember Belle's body language on that swing. He loaded up, crushed the pitch, then after completing his follow threw slung the bat back down towards the ground with two hands and immediately started his homerun trot.
Since football was brought up. 1986 LSU sports were SEC Champs in football and went to the Sugar Bowl, Final Four team in basketball, and were SEC Champs and went to Omaha in baseball. I'm gonna assume that we won at least some kind of national title in track and field that year as well.

I was friends with many guys on that team. That was a great team.
