We have a 19-40 team in our bracket! We cannot waste one of our top 3 on the bump!

And people here are talking of using our top 4 guys against them! Wtf. Have you people not watched the last month with our bullpen? Downvote all you want but its facts!

LSU have been gifted the 1st game. If we can't capitalize on this, we are not gonna advance anyway. If we have to use Hurd/Floyd/Coleman or Skenes in this game, we are doomed. We need pitching on the back in to win our Regional because Edwards and Shores are injuried. Hurd needs to come in and close for Skenes or Floyd and Coleman in the other.

This is basically a "super" against Oregon State. LSU have to save everything we have against them. After Tulane we will only see OSU. Period.

This might be worse than my Skenes is our 3rd starter take. But I'm joking and you seem serious.

I’m just glad we don’t have to face the next Roger Clemons pitching for Nicholls State.

Im just stating that unless we score 15 a game our bp will come into play twice in this region and it will come down to win or not based on bp effectiveness. Didnt know a regional wasnt "serious". We have a chance to exercise this by getting an easy 1st game. Lsu has to win game 2 and 3. If we gotta go further we done.

Who plans to help Skenes to close out OSU in g2? If lsu goes to loser bracket, its over. OSU is at least as good as miss state. In fact they are better. Jmo. Using a top 3 starter against a 40 loss team is dumb beings lsu has such a poor executing bullpen tbw.

Skenes won’t lose another game. I’d bet Bohanon type money on it

A 19-40 Tulane is more of a threat than a 25-25 SWAC team. Usually, a bad Tulane level team has a single starter that is legit enough to make you think twice.

We will throw Hurd and try to win this with Floyd vs. the Oregon State #4 and Johnny Wholestaff vs. the remaining Oregon State staff.

Skip had the philosophy of winning game 1 and doing everything you can to stay in the winners bracket. You never play for tomorrow. I’m not advocating throwing Skenes but Hurd should be the guy.

If Tulane throws carmouche it presents lsu with a challenge that they usually would not encounter with a 4 seed..

This is a big LHP with stuff that will pitch professionally. This isn’t some dude from the SWAC that throws 84mph & will walk 6 guys

So who do you pitch?

People have said Money

His longest outing of the year is 3.2ip, and 65pitches.

So after 4 innings what’s your plan?
