Kendall Rogers' SR Preview

Sam Houston State did knock around Nola a little in the winner's bracket game of the 2013 Baton Rouge regional. But LSU had enough firepower to take that one 8-5.

I'll be damn. That's the one. LOL

Maybe you were thinking ... "that should have been us" knocking around Nola in the winner's bracket.

Apparently.

Damn GG I feel like I am up at the plate

Is there much of a speed differential on the breaking stuff??? Had a discussion on the guessing part for your pitch and was amazed at how much actually goes on

Lange's breaking pitch is about -9 to -12.

I think the article was pretty accurate. LSU definitely has the edge in every aspect of the game. But as long as we execute, I have no doubt in my mind that our guys can go out there and beat the best teams in the country.

Yep, we'll have to do it eventually anyway so let's get one of the best out of the way this weekend :-)

Mark has been doing this for years. When I wrote for SEBaseball years ago, Mark did not mind my usage of "Louisiana". He was supportive of the writers penning with flair. I think it was when some LSU fans got their fur ruffled (my articles), he adopted "Louisiana" himself. It goes to show that being aggressive (on either side of the debate) does not encourage adoption of that particular view.

Bingo, Brian! If the LSU fans and alike(SunBelt schools/State Schools)continue to be butt-heads and choose not to call us by what we go by, Louisiana, UL, Cajuns, Ragin' Cajuns, or Louisiana Ragin Cajuns and continue to call us what we consider just being plum ugly, others will pick up just to spite an LSU call us Louisiana!
