I agree its hard for them to hate on their own. But we are on an LSU message board... at least most have came around acknowledging Angel Reese is a loser.

Dude has a 1.96 and 1.97 ERA in his first two seasons, ROY and a Cy Young. The facts shows he does very little wrong not LSU fan bias.

But yeh haters start posts about him and Burrow every time they dont have a great game.

There's your strategy, point blank. Very rarely do you see a ball hit that deep to center on a line drive. It wasn't misplayed, it's simply not part of the equation because it doesn't happen frequently enough to make the strategy -EV


Again, it has nothing to do with strategy or where he stood. His reaction was awful. A halfway decent fielder makes that play. His step forward wasn’t poor. His positioning was poor. It’s that he froze. That split second cost him.

Also, I’ll be curious to see that data. After watching the clip, it does appear to be in the air a bit longer than I saw at first glance.

Either way, you’re overthinking it. Strategy is one thing, but that doesn’t mean that he didn’t misplay it.

Dude doesn’t get it. Skenes obviously didn’t have his swing and miss stuff anyway, but I guess fans and announcers that have watched thousands of games are just wrong, and some analytics prove it or something

They’re fine with hating her because she’s black.

Meh, the defending CYA winner and hottest name pitcher in baseball getting pulled half way through the first inning on opening day is a thread worthy event regardless of where they went to college.

But when they have a bad game it’s amusing to see who else the LSU fans blame instead. Extremely creative imaginations

It's literally how the guy is coached to play it in that situation/scenario, the exit velo is the reason he looked so dumb. A ball on that trajectory should typically travel 275-300 feet, instead that went ~375. And there's no way for a CF to recognize/adjust until it's over 2B
