What's at stake today

[bulldogcountry1]

D1 released their regional projections this morning, and LSU is listed in the last 5 in with an RPI of 44. If we boot them today, it's going to be really tough for the NCAA to give them the usual favoritism. They wouldn't even be considered if it weren't for their conference record (15-15), but they didn't have to play UGA, UF, or UK.

It would be sweet to end their season today and further solidify our 2 seed.

Prepare yourself for the umpiring crew of Tony Walsh, Skip Bertman, the K Lady, and Little Sweet's Mom.

Outside of just winning another game - that's my other positive. It might kick LSU out.

 

[msstatelp1]

The chance to boot Manieri is the main reason I want to win today.

 

[Xenomorph]

That.. and beating our biggest baseball rival.

And they will immediately hire Cannizzaro and become a behemoth like we have never seen *

I think LSU is in regardless. The only SEC teams in recent memory who haven’t made it in with a .500 conference record both had RPI’s in the 60’s. They are at 44 now and won’t drop more than 2-3 spots with a neutral site loss to the #27 team.

They can wait a year to boot Maineri as far as I’m concerned. I’d rather not have LSU looking at the same time as us, especially with the rumored top guy for us having previous Louisiana ties. All the work IB has done behind the scenes could come undone pretty quick if that happens.

I think Paul Manieri agrees with you. They're starting a midweek/relief guy instead of their ace.

Them hiring Cann would be too good to be true. That would put every major sport they have except WBB under the direction of a complete clown.

Ol' Jake Hess will call in a favor or two with his baseball confederates what with his boy's post season in the balance and all.

D1 Baseball has UK, TAM, and LSU as 3 of their last 5 in. A lot can happen, but I don't think any of these teams can expect to make a regional if they lose today.

Cannizaro might make it back one day but he's got a lot of growing up to do first. He'll have to work his way back up starting at grad assistant at some nameless community college.

 

[patdog]

I think he'll going to go back to scouting for MLB. They won't care who he's screwing as long as it's not some prospects mother for a good evaluation. Which I wouldn't necessarily put past him.

 

[EurekaDog]

We'll see how much the NCAA loves LSU, when they determine the Regionals. (NM)

LSU, Troy, West Virginia & Texas Southern in Baton Rouge.

Like it or not, being last years runner-up (HAHAHA) will get them in with their current record.
