re: Deep dive into baseball postseason (what is best for LSU)

A loss puts us behind Missouri in RPI. That would really suck.

Impressive really

I hate the ACC format wish they would do the typical double elimination format maybe with a play in game.

I much prefer the ACC format to what the SEC has. This single elimination to double elimination back to single is stupid. Brutal on pitchers too.

Running out of those opportunities. Missouri is done so no way we could pass them at that point...same for UCF. I don't know if we lose that there are bad enough losses to push OSU behind us. Maybe DBU and Illinois, but the way things are shaking out at the moment, we must win today.

I think the Ole Miss pitcher is the dumbest person ever

I mean not only does he make a dumb decision to throw how with no force play, but then he airmails it

Good news and bad news as far as bid stealers.

Good news:
- Duke/Louisville will play tomorrow to make the semis. Either of them winning the ACC tournament is good for LSU. (Pitt is a potential bid stealer in the ACC, as well as Miami)

- Tennessee Tech wins their first game. We don't want a bid stolen from this conference.

Bad News:

- Northeastern loses its first game. They now have a long road to battle back and not allow a big to be stolen from their conference.

I think a 3 seed, being sent to a 9-16 regional would be a much better situation than a 2 seed in a national seed regional. Might be hard to send LSU to a 1-8 seeded region though, since most of them will be SEC schools.

USC and Miss St are considered 2 seeds, and LSU's RPI is now right there with USC. I don't think a 2 seed is totally out of the question, especially if they find a way to keep winning.
