No I’m not bashing them. They played phenomenal ball down the stretch. But I do feel as home field advantage is real, especially at LSU.

The boys were 900 miles away from home with the crowd yelling against them in a high pressure environment.

If the 9th inning was replayed and we were at Alex Box, UNC starts warming the plane up to head back home.

FIFY

With pitching depth, the hosting will come.

Pitching depth? Bro they pitched their asses off and held that lineup to minimum.

We started out a do-or-die game with Sam Dutton and Javen Coleman tonight.

We never had a 3rd starter and our bullpen was straight trash all season minus this weekend, and it cost us SEC Sunday wins and series wins, which cost us hosting.

Ack or Herring should’ve been developed into the 3rd starter role. Yes I know they are the best relievers and can win you game at the end but it virtually cost us every 3rd game this year but not having a dude on the mound.

It's a catch 22 because if one of them does become a starter, then maybe we win more Sunday games, but we lose some of Holman and Jump's starts this season because they were literally our only two trusted arms to finish a close game until Little came on late in the season.

It is, but I’d rather give myself a chance in all 3 games rather than throwing all my eggs in 1 basket for 2/3 games hoping to win both. But you also can’t experiment during SEC play with it as every game counts.

It would help but tons of fans. Hit the ball, pitch well, and catch fly balls to end innings.
