re: Did your team meet expectation this year in baseball?

warren nolans W/L predictions are based solely off RPI.

It was Warren Nolan, and it was going into SEC play. He doesn't take into account a three game series. However,he predicts games and pretty much said the 10 SEC opponents were better than us, and ihe predicted a series based on aone game played and used it for all three in the series which equals 0- 30. I remember Vandy was predicted to beat us like 4-2, so all 3 games of the series he had Vandy winning 4-2 in his projections, and he did this for all other teams we played which equaled 0-30. It was really 0-10 if you understand what he did.

I said AU would finish ranked and 3rd in the West at worst, of course it was down-voted into oblivion, so yes, AU met my expectations despite the experts here.

Everyone downvoted you because your were flapping your gums about how absurd Auburn being picked 5th was and how it could never happen. 3 teams finished 15-15 including Auburn to occupy the 3-4-5 spots. Had Auburn lost the last game of the year, they were 5th. Auburn was not nearly as good as you touted them up to be. They just benefited from playing both the teams they tied with at home.

Nolan’s algorhytn didn’t factor in how baseball works with the series. So home game vs. x team is a loss, all three games were predicted losses. There were no series splits for anyone.

He needs to change how it displays, what it should have stated was that we would lose all 10 of our SEC series. Some would have been sweeps but others could have been 1-2.

But going into the SEC season, I thought if we could get 10 wins in conference it would be a miracle. We got 15, made a regional, then got hot.

If we go 0-2 this week, the season will be a massive success considering what State has to go through.

Preseason top 15-20 team with a ton of freshmen. I'd say making a Super Regional (which has become the norm) and being one win away from Omaha met expectations.

However, the inconsistent regular season performance with a bunch of midweek losses and lack of production from key veterans was not expected.

We exceeded no doubt. Looked like we weren't going to make any tournament but then to make the sweet 16 , yea we over achieved

Obviously lsu didn't win their regional but they did win their own version of the cws by beating arkansas so their season was a success.

Why do you do this and embarrass yourself and your fan base?Our expectations are to win the Sec and make it to Omaha every year! We replaced our entire starting pitching so even the most delusional LSU fan had to have tempered expectations. Arkansas is just a team that we have great success against. I respect your team and program, and we all know that it will be a tough series every year.
As far as Arkansas , I would think that your expectations should have been and still be to win it all. Your team was loaded and garnered that respect by all the experts to start the year. You have played up to it, so quit whining like a sissy and trolling LSU instead of getting behind your team and focused on winning the whole damn thing!
