16 seed.

Vs Akron friday at 5:30

S. Alabama vs Virginia Tech in the regional.


6 of the top 8 are SEC teams. 9 SEC teams hosting.


VT is going to be very tough.

LSU matched up with #1 overall Bama. Southeastern is in the Bama regional.

Well they were one spot from hosting. I'm sure they were disappointed.

VT tech is a really good team 6-0 vs SEC this season. LSU has their work cut out for them but expected given they were given the 16 seed

When I saw McNeese to A @ M, I was afraid we wouldn't host.

Tough regional, but every 16th seed will have a tough regional. We need to at least make it to Sunday.

All on the road too. 2 wins each at Auburn, Georgia, and SC. They have played in BR before. I think we won each time, but they were all close games.

Am I crazy for loving a matchup with Alabama? Could easily see a Murphy choke. Surprised they got the #1 seed

LSU will have to pitch their arse off to make it to Bama. Good Heavener and there is probably a good chance. If we walk them too much they will make us pay.

We’ve seen the bad Heavener more often than not her last few outings

Tech is good but beatable. They were pretty up and down against the top of the ACC. Pitchers gotta keep the ball in the yard, obviously.

They did beat Georgia however 1 game was against Georgia 3-4 pitchers due to injury and the other before Rolling really progressed. Auburn well it’s Auburn. They are a good team for sure but this is a good matchup for us I think. I would think the heat will be a factor this weekend as we are looking at real feel in the 90’s that’s hot when you are coming from low 60’s

Did they last yr too? For all that great staff they got ran off the field with a better roster than they have now. I get it man you don’t think anyone on LSU staff is any good. I can assure you the head coach could have had the Texas job before Mike White and the Auburn job before Dean. The hitting coach had offers from 4-5 other sec teams prior to lsu and after lsu…Sandy will be a great head coach one day and Pleasants is brand new. Let’s compare to A&M, 4 WS for Beth 1 for Trisha, LSU has kicked A&M in recruiting the last 2 yrs. Let’s look at the old man show over A&M, Harger is a good coach, the other two are cheerleaders that hold Harger’s luggage and get him coffee lol.

To me, this wasn't a horrible year to be 16 seed. Lately it was the kiss of death because it meant a trip to Oklahoma. This year, I dont see much difference among Alabama, Texas, Oklahoma, and Nebraska. Of the top 4, Alabama is probably the team I was most hoping to match with

Gotta get to a Super this year. have lost a couple of regionals at home in recent years that we flat out just should not have. Can't have that happen again.

May work out not having to go to Oklahoma or Texas if they win the regional.

Downvote away & I hope I'm wrong, but they won't get out of this regional. It's classic Bethy-Poo! "Let's do just enough to host & we're good!"
