SBC BB Final: Louisiana 3, Coastal Carolina 6

[babysitter]

Man, we need to win tonight, currently D1 Baseball has us as the #1 team out of the tournament with his new projections this morning. A win tonight would put us right in the running.

I think personally a win tonight and a win vs an elimination team on Friday would basically make it tough to be kept out.

Thoughts?

A win tonight puts us with a day off tomorrow then would have to get beat twice Saturday in the semis to be eliminated.

GEAUX CAJUNS! LETS CHOKE THESE CHICKENS!!!!

This is a must win game tonite. PERIOD!

Texas State is taking Georgia State in the first inning 4-1, still a man on with only 1 out. They scored 3 on an throwing error.

[Des for Pres]

First pitch from Texas State and Georgia State is 2:01, so about 30 minutes late.

TXST may help catch us up to speed LOL. Looking like this one is going to be ugly for GAST fans.

Really don’t want to play Texas State again. Beating a team not named ULM 5 times in a season will be tough.

Cajuns will be the home team tonight

Curious... What's the ruling on this? Seems like the 1 seed would still be home team since we were both home team for game 1. Is it a coin toss if both had same amount of home games thus far?

Question...Mississippi State's RPI is 50. Are they eligible for regionals with them missing their conference tournament?

Of course they are. They are in the sec where it just means more!

Yes, they are.

GAST/TXST headed to extras. I should probably take a nap so I can stay awake for our midnight first pitch.

As with the NCAA postseason tournament, the conference tournament only uses seeding to set home/road for opening round games. Since both teams were home in their respective opening games, there was a coin flip.

There are other rules that apply as you get deeper (more games) into the tournament, but I will not get into those here.

They just need to sit and wait while the better SEC teams play each other, which will improve their RPI without playing a game.

I’ve got a work event from 6-8 so I’m okay if we start late tonight.
