incorrect. you are only looking at overall and not SEC only. LSU is 12th and MSU is 7th which is more reflective of how this team is playing.

Do you realize the difference between a 5 and 3 ERA? That's massive


yes. but scoring one run and saving one run (defense or pitching) is exactly equal in their effect on a baseball game. i'm all for great pitching and great defense and think you need them for consistent success and probably to win in Omaha but you still gotta score some runs man. losing games 2-1 sucks but your staff ends up with a great ERA.

At this point I just hope LSU makes the tourney. Forget about hosting a super or regional.

Yeah this team has potential!! Just got to put it all together!!!

bump for you Poncho. This was the day before the Kramer Speech and the team era has gone down by a run a game. Plus the hitting game around.

I know I've been critical As much as anyone.
My hope is for this to continue through the CWS.
They've earned what they've gotten.
Nobody predicted this or saw it coming with them running off as many wins as this considering who was left on the schedule in AU, MSU and SCe.
