I left “at home” and “recently” off that post. Didn’t think someone was going to spend an hour researching a post to try to boom me. I must have gotten under your skin about something.

Since 2012 at home, LSU is 0-2 against unknown talented mid majors that everyone overlooked, Stony Brook and Coastal Carolina. ULL wasn’t an unknown team. LSU is 3-1 against major conference teams, two of the wins didn’t host a regional, as West Virginia didn’t. The only loss was to a team on a mission from God to give their coach one more trip to Omaha. Congrats on making a long post only to prove my point.

It means on fielding % that they are prone to a few more errors than we are. Nothing more

they’ve committed an extra 28 errors more on the season than we have. 65 errors on the year so pretty even with Little Rock in that regard



This really isnt anything to write home about for those of you out there acting like we just need to put the ball in play and they will crumble. 28 more errors over like 60 games is nothing in the grand scheme of things. Less than 1 error more every other game. Sure, they could have a 3-4 error game against us, they are more likely to have a 0 error game though than that.

They arent bad in the field. We just need to execute offensively, stop popping up and trying to hit one out of the park every AB. Take tactical swings, their top 2 starters are good, they wont just be walking guys a ton.

Well dickhead, I didn't say we'd lose the regional.

Strength of schedule and RPI means jack shite this time of year. Vandy, Auburn, Ole Miss, Florida, were 1-4, Kentucky and UGA were 6-7.
Auburn is the only one left.

Hell, Vandy's still #1 RPI

It didn't take long at all to put that together

So by your random arbitrary metric, LSU struggles against mid-majors outside the state of Louisiana at home in super regionals. Cool

I'll be sure to keep that in mind for the future as I'm sure that serves a lot of value analytically

I hope you have an eye wash station in your mom’s basement to clean that egg off your face.

I’m not the one who wrote a dissertation to try to prove a post wrong and ended up solidifying its point.

whatever you say

"we lost a super regional 9 years ago to one team and another 13 years ago to different team, so statistically speaking, we have a better chance of beating West Virginia than we would a mid major in a super regional this year." That's the point you thought you were making. No need to get defensive about a bad take. If objective facts bother you, I apologize

That has nothing to do with this series though



I have no clue why people think that what happened 10 seasons ago has any implication on the outcomes of the current games. shite.. what happened two years ago doesn’t mean shite these days with the way teams turn over rosters

It’s almost like precedent is a thing. See you after LSU wins it in two games.

Assuming you mean the slight 0.013 Fielding percentage differential that separates LSU and WVU.

But if you look at the Fielding percentage formula you can see that a small differential in fielding percentage can amount to a big difference in overall standings:

Fielding Percentage = (Putouts + Assists) / (Putouts + Assists + Errors)

There are 27 putouts a game and assists are usually 12-18 assist a game.

As far as run per game, would be LSU at home WV on road. We just have to play our game. If WV batted against Our two aces they wouldn’t avg more than 7 run a game.
