re: LSU MBA Program
Posted by bas456 on 3/31/14 at 3:37 pm
3 or 4 years ago someone in the admissions department told me "You don't want an MBA from LSU." So I've passed that message on to anyone who asks.

re: Best dress shirt brands
Posted by bas456 on 3/25/14 at 10:15 am
I bought them at the store on Michigan Ave. It was on the left sleeve on all 4 shirts. It must be something I do, but I've had some JosABank shirts for 2+ years with no problems. I prefer the look and fit of BB, but they are expensive for 6 months of wear. I'll admit I've still worn them under sweaters through the winter.

I bought 4 1818 or whatever brooks brothers dress shirts last July and within 6 months all 4 split at the elbow. Anyone else had this problem?

re: Why is the SECBB Tourney held in the Dome instead of Phillips Arena?
Posted by bas456 on 3/11/14 at 10:28 am
In Atlanta, they need a lot more "cheap seats" to attract the SEC football fan who lives in Atlanta but doesn't care enough to pay a premium that would have to be charged at Phillips. Nashville is closer to Lexington. Greater demand from fans who are more passionate about college basketball coupled with less supply means drastically increased price. It probably doesn't hurt that Nashville cut the SEC a better deal than the GA Dome offered.

They only seat about 40k in the GA Dome and even then it is only on Sat and Sun when they open the upper levels. There can't be more than a few thousand extra seats in the Dome over Phillips for the midweek games.

I love Alumni Association trips. Always a great bargain.
re: Why can't LSU win basketball games on the road?
Posted by bas456 on 2/27/14 at 9:50 am
LSU defends the goal more aggressively than anyone in the SEC. Home record: 7-1. Road record: 1-6.
Arkansas defends the perimeter more aggressively than anyone in the SEC. Home record: 5-2. Road record: 2-5.
2 of the 3 road wins were South Carolina.

re: How much worse would LSU's loss to UL have been if not for rain?
Posted by bas456 on 2/26/14 at 2:43 pm
I think LSU would have lost by -1 runs.
Through 5 innings in last year's regional, LSU had 1 run. They wound up with 5. ULL scored 1 run in the 6th and nothing else the rest of that game.
So I'm thinking it would have finished LSU 5 ULL 4.

re: A Lot of Ranked Baseball Teams Lost Last Night (some SEC teams too)

I agree since LSU has a history of getting blasted at home and never winning games in the 7th-9th innings.

Mainieri had to have offered the run.

If LSU baseball averaged 1 home game a week and the weather conditions were perfect (like basketball), I'm pretty sure they could average 30k per game.

Are you an LSU fan?
No, but I see LSU plays South Carolina, Florida and Kentucky out of the East (1/2/3 last season). They also have to play 4 of the 6 West schools on the road.
re: SEC Baseball Scheduling
Posted by bas456 on 3/28/13 at 10:00 pm
Under the current scheduling format, Alabama can't avoid the West. That said, LSU and Arkansas finished 1/2 in the West last season and the scheduling Gods gave Bama both of those series at home.
SEC Baseball Scheduling
Posted by bas456 on 3/28/13 at 9:44 pm
Last year, the SEC East finished - 1. South Carolina, 2. Florida, 3. Kentucky. This year, Alabama baseball doesn't play South Carolina, Florida or Kentucky.
Last year, the bottom 4 teams in the conference were 9. Georgia, 10. Auburn, 11. Alabama and 12 Tennessee. This year, Alabama baseball started conference play against Tennessee, Georgia and Auburn.
The odds of a computer spitting that schedule out has to be extremely small.

good answer IMO
How is that a good answer? When Ole Miss swept a bad TCU team (8-11 with an RPI of 120), Ole Miss jumped from 13 to 8, ahead of LSU who went 3-0 that week. LSU is still stuck behind Ole Miss because now the rule is a winning team doesn't get jumped.

They aren't going to sit Rhymes or Laird. That leaves the guy with 14 strikeouts to 15 hits and the only error in the outfield.
