I feel like whoever handles their positioning could just set out four buckets and no LSU balls would leave the infield. ...

[quote]I hope he throws 93-96 vs 87-90. The faster the better we hit[/quote]
Yeah we’re great against solid but not elite pitchers. As long as UNC doesn’t have any crafty lefties with a career long of 1.2 innings pitched, we’ll be fine....

[quote]literally every other sport that plays series (MLB, NBA, NHL, etc.), the higher seeded team is home for the deciding game 7.[/quote]
UNC's higher-seed is no longer relevant.
For tournament purposes, UNC is "Game 6 - Loser".
We can debate whether UNC should have been home team in ever...

[quote]no other sport plays a tournament format like this one either.
and what other sport has the higher seed as the road team in the deciding game 7 of the series?[/quote]
UNC shouldn't be considered the 1-seed any more, they are Winners of Games 1 and 3 and Losers of Game 6.
If you want ...

[quote]Being a national seed needs to be a reward and advantage[/quote]
The advantage is playing in your home stadium and opening against the 4-seed.
No other sport with a playoff that includes a series of games lets the higher seed be the home team the entire series.
I'd be ok with letting...

[quote]I’m glad it benefits LSU this time, but that is a terrible rule.
If you are a host you should always be home for games. You earned that. The rule needs to change.[/quote]
In general I think that the 1-seed should be able to win the regional by playing as the home team in three games, bu...
re: Why can’t LSU bunt like Wofford?

Not sure how someone watches a game where each team scores 2 runs from non-homeruns but one of the teams adds 4 additional runs from homeruns to win 6-2 and comes away thinking that using homeruns to win baseball games is a poor strategy....

There was.

Yea but LSU fans have witnessed recent big wins by their team over ranked teams.
An LSU fan predicting at a double-digit win is probably thinking something like, "This game might go the same way as the other 8 times we've beaten rank...

[quote]That’s where we disagree. No one is paying out significant money in NIL that is available only by going the college route. Dunne isn’t getting paid what she is because she went to college. She had an already established brand that she has continued to expand coincident with being in college n...

What are the roster limit rules for 2023? Is it still 35 players of any classification plus 5 who played during the Covid year?
