5 days is one day short of normal on a week when he was overworked. And the most important point is you gain no advantage by pitching in Sunday.
Your simple mind has concluded that LSU would have a lesser chance of winning the super by holding Eyanson to game 3. That’s just not the case.

Right they won the opener and should have brought Evans in game 2 with the lead and didn’t and lost. Then game 3 the bullpen was bad. He literally did the opposite the next series and even mentioned it in a presser in a roundabout way. What are you talking about. You are trying to argue that going to a game 3 in a super regional is the way to go which is completely moronic
This OP is about game 1. The Texas series isn’t a good example of what you are talking about because LSU went to its best reliever in game 1.
As for your other statement, unless you think the pressure of being in game 3 would hurt LSU more than WV, there’s no harm in deciding to pitch Eyanson in game 3 vs. game 2 given a game 1 win.

1. Evans 2. Rizy. 3. Shores 4. Noot
5. Williams

Damn thought I got the date wrong!

No I’m not. That’s matched by the odds of winning game 3 without Eyanson pitching.
It’s not matched. Just like you pointed out Eyanson would have a better chance of winning game 2 with the lead, so would the rest of the staff.

You got it right in your last three paragraphs.
I know.

But I do like the odds of Eyanson/Evans (Evans on one day rest) on day three going against WVA’s day three group.
The biggest issue is both of those guys NEED the rest. The best chance to win without those 2 would be with a lead in game 2. And you’d still have the flexibility of using Eyanson much later in the game if the opportunity presents itself at a time when you don’t have to worry about him finishing 5+.

Cowan, Shores, or Cooper Williams. I want Evans starting a game.
I don't want Evans starting a game... I want Anderson and Eyanson starting. Everyone's bending over backwards to say something else, but Anderson and Eyanson just threw shutouts.
Evans just came into a game and was excellent, dominant in a high pressure situation where you absolutely needed him to be. So he's my first choice to come close this game out. Don't overthink it.

HA!! Have an upvote for the Marianas Turkey Shoot reference.

Evans
Posted on 6/5/25 at 10:54 pm to Double Oh
Cowan for one inning and Shores for one inning. They both seem to be able to give at least one inning before the wheels come off and they go wild.

Is Sheerin ready yet?

You are fooling yourself into believing you have a better chance of winning by pitching Eyanson on Sun and everyone else on Monday than vice versa.
You are most likely not going to a game 3 if AE starts Sunday. Do you understand the format? If you win the first 2 then why would you play a 3rd game. My lord

In reality, you are giving yourself less of a chance because Eyanson would be on more rest Monday and its needed...you'd probably have a more rested Evans as well...and you'd be facing a lesser starting pitcher on Monday than you would on Sunday.
Yes lets take a chance that our bats don't come alive in the 3rd game and our season is over. You can't be serious

You young guys thinking g you know it all after watching g a championship or two. One day, if you are fortunate, you will be an old man, and guess what, you'll have little punks coming g on here telling you that you don't know shite....despite all the years of experience you put behind you....enjoy it.

He will go to shores before cowan....or noot before cowan. Have you watched at all how cowan has pitched down the stretch. Teams are on to him now. It is that simple.

Honestly, and I know it's not popular, but I would go to Cowan. He was at his best in short relief this year, coming in after Anderson. And recentcy bias is a thing. The combo of Anderson/Cowan game 1 was a good one this year. If he gives up a base runner then go to Rizy or Mayers. Save Evans for game 3 if needed.
The bigger question is game 2. Let's assume we win game 1 and Eyanson hands off a 4-3 lead in the 7th. Who do you go to there? Evans (all chips to the center with trip to Omaha on the line) or whoever is left in the bullpin after Friday? Tough decisions for sure.
Whatever happens, let's just hope the Tigers get it done this weekend. Can't wait for the games!. GEAUX TIGERS!

If they don’t it’s a moot point anyway

I want Anderson and Eyanson starting.

Really, the best closer is probably... Eyanson. But he's essential to your plans as a starter. So you go with your next best option, because going 1-0 is important.
OP lays it out, we're up 2-1 with 2 innings left. You bring in someone to finish it, not an arm to eat innings and save guys for a possible game 3. Your intended situation is to get 18 good innings out of the pitching staff, and then sit on the couch sunday. If you save Evans, blow game 1, win game 2, and start Evans game 3, you could be same situation in game 3. Evans gives us 6-7 innings, then we have to finish... but we no longer have Evans to come do that.
You play to win the first 2 with this team.

This comment shows your absolute inability to process multiple events at once.
Obviously Eyanson gives you the best shot of winning on Sunday. That's not the smart question to ask. The smart question is whether him starting on Monday gives you a better chance of winning than him starting on Sunday.

You are facing that same chance in game 2 fool...only worse because you have a less rested Eyanson, potentially an unavailable Evans, and you are going against a better starting pitcher.
I think the reason you don't understand is simply based on your inability to think logically. It's a limitation of yours. You might have to just take my word for it.
