Who was the player for LSU that hit the 9th inning walk-off game winning homerun that won the 1996 College World Series vs. Miami?

Still get chills seeing that highlight. What a moment!



Edit: That's *former* Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora on the ground.

@MAG you got me looking at the 1996 LSU Wikipedia page. The top of the SEC was loaded as usual: #2 Florida (coached by Andy Lopez, who later won a national title at Arizona), #1 Alabama, and #6 LSU all made the CWS field. Between the regular season and SEC tournament, Florida went 4-0 against LSU... then LSU won back to back games against Florida at Rosenblatt. That's winning when it counts.

And that was in the gorilla ball era: LSU won their regional final 29-13 over Georgia Tech.
