it's always great to hear the Gamecock Radio Network broadcast the game from a media booth that doesn't have a view of the first base dugout or right field at the true SEC baseball gem otherwise known as Taylor Stadium

LSU, especially with the way they have been playing.

LSU yes, Auburn looks like they have some tough teams as well. Finishing at A&M, at MSU and home vs Georgia in their last 3 series.
