re: Is today a must win?
Posted by tarzana on 4/19/26 at 9:43 am to Yeti_Chaser
Is there a consolation tourney in case we fall short? I would like a second chance to make things right after what has been a very disappointing campaign.

No sir. 1993-94 was worse.
Football: 5-6 (3-5 SEC) with losses by 24 to A&M, 18 to Arkansas, 18 to Kentucky, 22 to Tennessee, 25 to Auburn and an all-time record 55 point shellacquing by the Florida Gators.
Basketball: 12-15 overall (5-12 SEC); led by 31 in the second half vs Kentucky only to lose in the Mardi Gras Miracle.
Women's Basketball: 10-21 overall, 0-11 in SEC play. Cornelia Gayden put up some impressive numbers however.
Baseball was good that year, but flamed out early in Omaha, going 2 and BBQ.

Twelve more wins, to reach the level of Smoke's worst campaign, would guarantee an NCAA Tournament bid and a winning record in SEC play. Not impossible but extremely unlikely

Where is Dar Dar? Is he still hurting

I don't see that happening
Nobody sees it happening, so we need to shift talking points from postseason play to individual efforts by players, such as marked improvement out of the bullpen by Lachenmeyer, Theophilus and esp. Marcos Paz, and of course Milam's active bat and stellar glove
It's noteworthy that several of the Aggie players have armbands referencing Bible verses. Maybe it's time for LSU baseball to have a come to Jesus revival.

Nice! Three quick, but loud, outs. I'll take it

This is a rebuilding year for the Tigers. Same as Aggy last year. I think LSU will again be a baseball power

Back to back to back KO's... could this Aggie pitcher go through the Tiger lineup thrice for 27 punchouts? Has that ever happened before?

As he should be. It has been a troubled season, but this is not who we are as college sports fans. This sort of hooliganic unrest is at least three generations removed from our own time.
re: Worst LSU baseball team since

Maineiri's first team (2007) was only 12-17-1 SEC and 29-26-1 for the season, but they played better than their overall record. They played a stronger NC slate than this year's team, and were easier on the eyes than this year's team in conference play. They actually won two of three games at Arkansas.

Wrong-- Smoke had one non-tournament team, in 2006. And that team won 14 SEC games. If this year's team wins 14 conf. games I'll eat my shorts
Probably 1983-- last year of the pre-Bertman Era, known formally as the "ancien regime."
Compleat game! Yay-HEY!

re: Is Chris Blair ok?
Posted by tarzana on 4/16/26 at 10:13 pm to SpartanSoul
I follow a "Pritikin Lite" regimen, with about 20% protein, 20% fat (mostly in the form of olive and peanut oils) and 60% carbs-- very limited to no refined sugars; heavy on rice, muesli-type cereal and Irish potatoes. A1C and blood glucose in the high normal range, cholesterol (esp LDL) and triglycerides normal. BP remains slightly elevated, mostly from too much salt, not enough exercise and excessive poundage.

Keto/carnivore can do amazing things
Unfortunately not always healthy things. The human liver and kidneys are not designed to catabolise a preponderance of amino acids and fatty acids, even though weight loss is generally a good dietary end game.
Dr Nathan Pritikin, the shining star of 1970's nutritional planning, would be horrified at modern keto diets. He was adamant on a daily dietary regimen of 10% calories from protein, 15% from fats (no trans fat) and 75% complex carbohydrates, natural sourced as in grains, fruits and vegetables (no refined sugars).

There are no "pisspoor" wins. A win is a win is a win, and even the worst of them are good, regardless of the four errors and nonproductive atbats.
We need to somehow steal the next two series, going 2-1 against both A&M and Miss St. And cut out the midweek losses-that'll change the trajectory.
