Idk, if I need them to win me a game I think I might prefer it against Little Rock

Remember the consequences of losing game 1 to Little Rock are much greater than losing game 3 to DBU or whoever. Lose game 1 and you have to win 4 straight. Lose game 3 and you just get a rematch

idk we would have Evans and shores has turned a corner.

I could se both of them giving you 2-3 innings at the end of a game.

He's pitching Anderson game 1 whether you like it or not because the last time Anderson wasn't in his normal rotation he had his worst outing.

Best case scenario LSU rakes a 10 run 1st inning and they pull Anderson so he can be used if there's a game 4. Evans and Cowan didn't pitch last week right?

But even more so, I like those chances against a MUCH weaker hitting Little Rock.


I get it. But the last regional game CJJ coached his starter didn’t get out of the first inning and the second guy didn’t make it 2 innings. We are all lying to ourselves if we don’t think that’s in the back of his mind. Having something like that happen in game 1 and having to waste arms out of the pen would be way more devastating than burning Anderson.

Go win game one and two and make other teams burn through their pitching and have to beat you twice.

As a kid in Kaplan the term cowan referred to a girl's lady part. I don't know why or how that came to be but we all called it that.

The coaches need to start listening to the rant. It's the reason they didn't go 55-0 this year.

Good grief. I didn’t realize Dutton didn’t even record an out in the game, I just remembered he didn’t get out of the first.

The audacity of him to play like that in his last game as an LSU Tiger and then go beat us at Auburn…smh

Thanks. Wanted to check because it said regional and I wasn't sure if the poster meant Super or not.

And some people said how could Jay let Dutton go? He couldn't guarantee Dutton a starting spot given how Dutton looked prior. I don't fault that. Then some people say oh well then there's a coaching issue, because he finally had success. Well coaching did pretty well with Kade and Eyanson.

I don’t want to speak too soon but you can probably add Mayers to that list as well.

Cowan would do well against Little Rock. He’s figured out by good hitters though
