And? Besides 3 games who has Arkansas beaten on the road? We know they've lost to plenty of good and bad teams on the road.
I think he's just saying your schedule is laughable up to this point for not leaving the state in the OOC.
Hopefully your AD doesn't make the same mistake in basketball scheduling again because it seems like he likes to schedule like a pussy and it hurts the conference.
Bragging about 23-2 with who you've played is funny regardless, kind of like an MSU fan bragging about 7-0 or whatever it was last year in football.
Arkansas and Vandy went and played road series' against Top 15 teams, few teams actually do that it seems but it helps the sport.
Imagine football if every major team just played 4 cupcakes or basketball with no tip off tournaments/maui etc to start the season and a bunch of Delta State type games.
Baseball needs to start scheduling marquee series' like the other 2 sports do if it wants to grow and branch out further.
LSU playing a series at like Arizona or UCLA or somewhere like that would draw as many fans for that series as they'd see all year and help get people more into the sport IMO.
When teams like LSU, South Carolina, Arizona, North Carolina, etc, Top 10 teams, don't leave their state in the OOC it just hurts the game.

Funny it was just a couple of years ago we had Cal State Fullerton at the box and in the last 10 years we have had road trips out to Long beach, Houston twice,Stetson, UCF.
But even if we didn't why does it matter as long as we are in
the SEC and play the gauntlet that all teams in the most
powerful conference face every year? I mean, I know in the
2009 season that was a big regret of mine was that Paul
Mainieri was such a lil girl and everything he refused to travel out of state for occ and was too scared to play any teams besides villanova and illinois. Oh wait nm we won the CWS
and beat your arse all over the place. Yea so much for your lecture on how LSU should do things.

Bro if you think LSU is going to go on major road series every year you are dumb. Newsflash jack....baseball actually makes money at LSU. As another poster said we have travelled over the last few years. If it's not enough for you.....tough break don't let it rustle your jimmies too bad.
Keep Alex Box North warm for us.

Um, you miss where they went to Houston to play in the Astros Classic?

Ah, that tired old shite again. So it's not a road game for Florida to play at Miami or Florida State, Ole Miss at MSU and vice versa, etc. Got it. Of course, then it's not a home game if we play in-state teams in Alex Box, right?

LSU played a road series at then top-15 Mississippi State and didn't get swept.

Yep. The most successful and most profitable college baseball program in the country needs you to tell it how to "grow and branch out further".

Why is it our responsibility to help them? It's up to them to get their own people to their games.
The only reason the piglets are on this leaving-the-state bullshite is that there aren't many schools in R-Kansas for them to play so they HAVE to go out of state for OOC games. Now they pretend it's an act of courage or altruism or something.

Do you think the AD makes the baseball and basketball schedules?

LSU schedule rank: #38
Arkie schedule rank: #104

If you think 23-2 against the #38 schedule is funny, then 18-7 against the #104 schedule has got to have your sides splitting, amirite?
