For those with Directv and the sports package, looks like all of the games are on channel 674 (AT&T SportsNet Southwest.)

[Scraps 13561]

Looks like ATT Sportsnet through FuboTV trial is the only way to get this without the above.

All the other outlets are fronts for ATTSportsnet.

Is the A/C at Minute Maid up to LSU’s standards?

Bigger question is whether their hitters will take a cue from their football team and fake a cramp every time our pitcher gets ahead.

Wonder if Marucci rolls their bats at the factory or if the program still does it themselves? Roids were always distributed by a few players pre espn's sec takeover, now it's likely programatic.

On to Houston. Let the drinking begin!! 

[Enchubben 5510]

Tickets look like $45 on stub hub for a 3 day pass. Will you be able to buy at the gate?

[Walte464 450]

Flying up for LSU and Arkansas, can’t wait.

The Mizzou, Arky and LSU teams and fans will feel right at home with minimal indoor plumbing? 

Advantage: SEC

Shit, there's a water emergency?

Heard that...thought he corrected previous mention that it was on MLB Network (it's on TV at ATT sports net).  Above article says free streaming on mlb.com.

It's on on my TV

[Burt Macklin 19020]

Really awesome that these games will be on YouTube. I lost my free connection to LHN and haven’t felt like lying for it yet, but I’m looking forward to catching the games this weekend. This series will tel us a lot about the quality of our team. 

[UTPhil2006 3805]

Also it's on the Astros Facebook stream live

Not sure if it’s only there because I have the Astros listed as my favorite team, but I found the link for the stream in the news tab.

Thanks! Yes, News and then choose Astros if it defaults to MLB.

Interesting. Roku mlb app doesn’t seem to have a news tab, so I changed to Apple device and astros and it’s there. So thx.

OOC opponents update: Rice is 1-8 and has barely been competitive in most games, while Boise's on a 3-game winning streak.

122 for one game in baseball? Is that a record?

The loss vs LSU raised it 118 points to #10.

The win vs pig raised it a few more.

We rose in the rankings by losing? Was RPI developed by aggy?

Which juniors are expected to go pro after this season?  I assume Elder and Zubia are gone, but what about Williams?

They dont factor in "ran out of innings ", at least I dont think so. They do however, factor in "Sec", as do all rankings.

It’s not an idiotic formula. It just needs more data to be reliable. Early season RPI is always pretty pointless.

Far too early to tell.  Elder is most likely.  Zubia next if he has a good year.  Everyone else needs a breakout year to be considered.

In other news, tomorrow's opponent, Arizona, somehow managed to give up a combined 25 runs to Rhode Island (yep) over the last 2 days.  I had figured they would be playing a few games in TX, but it appears that they're just flying out for Tuesday's game and heading back to Tucson.
