Sweep if our bats really heat up again.
2/3 if they don't.

Is that guy from the 2-a-days show still on the team or did he graduate? He wasn't that bad iirc



Ross Wilson left two years ago.

How's Mikey White doing? I graduated with him from Spain Park and he was one of my best friends growing up. That kid put in WORK growing up to be a great ball player, his dad had him on a professional training schedule basically. He played high level baseball all year round. I'm curious to know how he's doing at Bama



He's struggled from time to time, but he's going to be a good one. He's hitting .236 right now. His fielding percentage has taken a hit the last two SEC series too. But he makes some great plays as well.

This is college baseball. Youth often hurts you more than any other level. I would see some ray of hope with solid performances all three days against a great LSU team. I wouldn't if we just rolled over for them.

I have a gut feeling we are on the downside of peaking unfortunately. Maybe it's just gas.

Do you know Lee Mitchell? He played RB for Spain Park and went to Southern

Whats with all the LSU fans saying we are coming down from peaking? We just took 2/3 from ark and swept 3 straight weekends before that. I dont understand how you think we are declining. We have consistently played this brand of ball all year. We have solid pitching fri and sat. The better the fri and sat pitching is, the better sunday is bc of our bullpen. I would say we have 3 really solid, reliable guys that can come in out the bullpen in Bourgious, Bonvillan and Cotton and a couple pretty decent guys that can get a couple outs in Rumbelow and hopefully Mccune as we will prob see him some more this weekend to confirm his progress.

Our hitting has been solid all year with an exception of a couple games, misnomers. We have a really really tough lineup top to bottom with the middle pretty gruesome in Bregman, Rhymes, Katz, Ibarra. McMullen in the leadoff has been playing really good and Ross and Jones have been playing much better as well. The only questionable position we have is the DH.

Basically, I think if we can save our bullpen for sunday we get the sweep. I really hope we get the sweep, but I can definitely see us dropping sunday. I cant really see us dropping fri or sat but this is college baseball and anything can happen any day

I second hubertcumberdal.

Y'all are crazy with this "peaking/declining" stuff, this ain't track or swimming. If y'all think this team is declining u clearly aren't watching.

Tigers are solid in all three phases. Not unbeatable by any means, but pretty good.

I think the Tigers sweep but wouldn't be upset with 2/3. Expect the Tide to give LSU a good fight and maybe steal one.

Winning the series is always good, but a sweep would be great...and I'm honestly leaning toward the sweep.

I think Alabama has a really good chance to at least take 1 and maybe the series this weekend. Bama isn't as bad as they've played lately and LSU isn't as good as they think they are. Bama should have a good crowd behind them Saturday and Bama has the pitching edge on Sunday.

Game 1: 9-6
Game 2: 21-17
Game 3: 21-0

Tigers sweep, not sure if that's a *really sweep* though

Close I hope, but hope is a terrible strategy.

I'm hoping for 2 outta 3 this weekend.
