State's best hope at going one out of three is to hope that Routt is on, pitches nine innings and it doesn't rain. And that State can score more than one run off of Buckvich.
Even if Bittle's bicep blows up, we don't have the bullpen to stop Ole Miss, or hell Samford for that matter. I honestly don't know why Bianco is even taking a chance with Bittle, if there is any question at all that he may not be 100%, especially in light of our situation.
