No and Probably. But I'd do the opposite. They can win a slugfest if they need

to. They're capable of swinging the bats. Especially at home.

one can dream

I'm hoping for one of the following:
  1. Throw Nikhazy Friday, win 10-2, lose Saturday in a close game.
  2. Hold Nikhazy for Saturday, lose Friday.

But that's just for my own amusement.

I can tell you what Ron Polk would do

dance with who brung you.

Most of these teams have a stud pitcher or two, or they would not be here.

Get to the third game, unscathed.

That is all.

Exactly. Stick to the plan. That is what every team should do. It will help keep the pitchers minds settled as well.

Of course he should throw Nikhazy on Friday. Only a fool would do otherwise.**

On another note, USM “should” beat FSU right? I mean, if our backup 2B could’ve cleanly fielded a routine pop-up, we would’ve been the 16th regional host.

I will say this. No disrespect to Ole Miss, but our chances of making it to Omaha are better as a 2 seed in Oxford than hosting as the 16 and being matched up with Arky.

They are expected to throw Diamond, FYI. Which I think is probably the right move.

I actually like USM to take this Regional, and they may be more of an Omaha threat than people realize. Hitting is not great but their starting rotation is as good as anybody's in the country. They have four legitimately good starting pitchers. Stanley and Powell in particular are excellent.

Imagine the CL having to run yet another “Thanks Ole Miss” headline for USM.
