  1. Well if we want LSU as a 2 seed in our bracket, I think we need LSU to win this. But we're talking some crazy hypotheticals here.
  2. I don't think LSU is holding on to a 2. In real danger of losing to Ole Miss right now and probably won't beat Alabama in the quarters without FJ.
  3. I hope so, I just don't think this LSU roster is very good. Honestly, I hate to say this but I think Mulkey should win SEC coach of the year. The fact they were actually in the mix this year was one of her best coaching jobs. This roster doesn't even have top-10 talent IMO. Especially not without FJ.
  4. LSU up 1 on Ole Miss headed to the 4th in Baton Rouge. They might still win this but they are cooked without FJ. My dream scenario of LSU as the 2 seed in our bracket is probably over.
  5. That's going to be a tough match-up for Alabama considering the circumstances. Assuming they beat LSU. 3rd game in 3 days for a team that only plays 6 to 7 players. Also, they really only play 1 big in Cody and she's not capable of playing more than 25 minutes a night to begin with.
  6. I think Alabama will beat them too. They just beat them a couple days ago and that was when LSU had FJ.
  7. I feel like this team is going to be difficult to beat on Sundays with our approach at the plate. Oklahoma State (14 runs and 10 walks). Today vs Illinois (15 runs and 6 walks). Still a small sample and didn't do much against Dartmouth on Sunday but it was also 5 degrees outside. When you get to back-end arms they will walk you and that plays right into this approach.
  8. I laughed but this probably was advantageous for us. LSU would be a fringe top-25ish team without FJ. So we actually got the better draw.
  9. I think @Js1 is right. We want the 2 seed. I see no way LSU can beat us without FJ and if they lose in the quarters we still have a major advantage.
  10. Next year could be fun. Chavez and potentially the #1 preseason team in the country. Plus energy in men's basketball with a new coach and I expect CDC to make a good hire there.
  11. This looks like the Schloss teams at aggy the last couple of years. Patience to the extreme. Get on base with walks and get deep into counts for hitter counts. It does work and especially with college pitching.
  12. For sure but we will have a major advantage if we get the 6 seed. That will be their 3rd game in 3 days and only our 2nd in 2 days. A team like Alabama only plays 6 to 7 players too. Honestly, I think I would rather play LSU without FJ though. Their roster is already limited and that's their best player.
  13. I think it's safe to say, Illinois is out of pitching.
  14. Oh yeah, I don't disagree. Just saying it's a good draw. LSU probably won't even advance without FJ.
  15. LSU probably won't even make the semis with FJ out.
  16. I think CDC just had Vic lined up. We went from a top 25ish coach to a top 5ish coach. That type of upgrade you take if it's available. I actually think it took some pretty big balls to fire Aston. She's a good coach as she's showing at UTSA.
  17. I mean it's pretty obvious already who orchestrated their hitting approach. We've had what 14 free bases in the last 2 games (including BB and HBP). Meanwhile, aggy is swinging at a bunch of stuff out of the zone in the two games I saw this weekend. Their entire approach under Schloss was to be patient to the extreme. That's completely disappeared.
  18. I will say it's kind of odd we fired somebody like Aston but not Angela Kelly. Both have results but I view Aston as a tier above Angela Kelly. My only guess is that the reason we made a move in women's basketball is because CDC had Vic lined up. I think it's probably more difficult to pull that type of coach in soccer considering facilities, our lack of history, and how far soccer is down on our priorities.
  19. It would be nice to keep blowing teams out like this so we can throw all these FR arms some innings.
  20. Aston is a decent coach. 4 Sweet 16s and an elite 8 at Texas. She will probably get a decent gig soon. I view her a lot like Pierce. Good but not good enough with expectations. Honestly, aggy could do a lot worse than Aston.
  21. Tech starter got rattled after the walk and HBP. He was throwing meatballs right over the middle of the plate because all he wanted to do was find the zone.
  22. Tech is trying to bait us into pitching Howard aren't they?
  23. Arizona beats aggy 3-2. 3 straight losses for aggy and they haven't played a ranked team yet.
  24. Alabama as a 4 seed is going to be a bitch for some #1 seed on a neutral court in the Sweet 16. If they had a fully healthy Barker for the entire year they would be a 2 or 3 seed.
