BB G2 Final: UL 9, Tech 4

[cajunhawk]

A lot of young people watch baseball through a football lens. Getting blown out in baseball stings, but it rarely means the ship is sinking. The overreacting here can get annoying, but most of the time it is just entertaining.
As for our bottom 4 hitters, once I made the assumption that they will strike out or ground out weakly to the SS everytime they come up to bat, I started to enjoy the season more. I now get excited when they foul off a pitch or by some miracle get a hit. I feel like I'm getting to see something very few people on this earth get to see.

If we are ten games over .500 by the time the conference tournament ends, we'll be in a regional.

I think this holds true, but I also think it also depends on how we finish in the tournament. If we can make it to at least the semifinals with a record of 10 games over .500, I would be very optimistic with an at-large bid.

The long travel could have affected the outcome of both games. Last week we had just come back from Boone, NC and played Tech at home on Wednesday. This week Tech had just returned from Huntington, WV and played us at home last night. Both home teams looked like they were still suffering from jet lag. Yet another reason to have closer geographic conferences.

Maybe, and maybe they didn’t spend a day traveling. If everything had gone well I don’t think it would have been so tiring. Additionally LTU was the 6th game in 8 days.

Just saying all travel aren’t the same.

I don't remember when the Sunbelt last had three bids.

I want to say the Sun Belt got four teams in back in '05?

I'm sure it's happened on multiple occasions. Say what you want about the Belt but they can ball on the diamond.

Jay said during the game at Tech that the SBC was the 6th rated RPI league while CUSA was No. 12.

......Have we been assured of an appearance in our own tourney??.

It must be pretty tightly packed... because I saw that on Warren Nolan (#6) as of Monday and now #9. The Belt had a pretty bad night Tuesday (besides the Cajun win) which must have made the difference in conjunction with other similarly ranked conferences winning... Hopefully it switches back to #6 before it's all said and done... but not much left in the mid-week - at least for the Cajuns.

#6 through #9 is indeed tightly packed.
