You have the lead. You’re not taking out your 1B who has played well there tonight

3 or 4 insurance runs would be great.

I’d settle for 1 or 2

Yeah…not at all. If you are going to compare him to a guy on one of those Brave teams it would be Glavine

No one.

Unless Johnson has no choice, Anderson is going 9

What a fricking joke. An unlimited TO relace your shoes? Put some different shoes on

Anderson hasn’t been sharp vs RH hitters

LSU wasn’t hitting the ball hard. I don’t get it

You people act like LSU was more talented than fla.st especially in that 1st game.Yall can blame BK all you want but the OL/DLs had 0 depth for3 years and this is football not Basketball where 3 decent players make you competitive.Ed left this roster in a shambles and if you don’t see that you just hate BKs hire

That game, as has been the case in pretty much every opening game over the last 3 seasons, came down to LSU consistently failing to execute a capitalized on opportunities. LSU was PLENTY talented enough to win every one of those games.

In 2022 LSU took the opening possession and marched right down the field. Boutte can't hang on to a would be TD in the endzone. The, on 2nd and goal from the 4 the center snaps the ball 16 yards past the QB. It doesn't take immense talent to get the snap to the QB. Just execution. LSU is forced to settle for a FG. The 1st quarter ends 3-0.

FSU scores a TD in the second quarter not because the LSU DB is physically unable to guard the WR. It was because the DB looking in the backfield when FSU fakes a reverse, letting the WR run right by him for a TD. Again, execution. Not lack of talent.

LSU comes back and gets inside the FSU 10 again. Daniels throws a slant/post that if Boutte is looking, or at least willing to catch the ball would have led him right into the endzone. Instead, he doesn't even attempt to catch the ball. The subsequent 27 yard FG gets blocked because no one decides to black Jared Verse. Again, execution...not talent.

Nabers, who I don't think anyone would say isn't talented, drops two punts. Regardless, despite ALL of that, "untalented" LSU goes 99 yards in roughly a minute to score what looked like the game tying TD...except the ST, which was a problem all season, again, doesn't block a rusher.

LSU left points on the board in 2023 because they failed to execute. The USC game in 2024 is OVER if Nuss, who had a pretty good game leading up to the final drive, doesn't through his worst pass of the night.

LSU has been PLENTY talented enough to win every opening game under Kelly. They have just consistently failed to execute in sports that could have changed the game. To act like LSU has been running up against opponents with a roster the talent level of a ULM or similar is just a baseless excuse.

No.

No program's fanbase has higher expectations than LSU's. Thats the "price" of success. Now, will the disappointment be slightly less should LSU not win the NC because they won it just two years ago? Probably. But in the world of CBB, LSU is not flying under the radar...even if they aren't being talked about as much. I suspect most, and the betting lines confirm such, think either LSU or Arkansas will win the NC.

The days of playing the "disrespect" card, or low expectations are LONG gone for LSU baseball.

Except pay for the toys used in the attack…and then the subsequent rebuild of Iran in a few years when a new POTUS is in office.

We are ALWAYS involved. Even if indirectly
