Looking ahead....

If we can get through these next two weekends at 4-2 or even 3-3 I think we would be in the catbird seat as far as the SEC is concerned. We will have played our 5th and final currently ranked opponent and 4th in a row (3 of the 5 on the road) and would have 4 unranked teams left on the docket. All of the other current contenders would still have two or more ranked teams to play.

The current SEC front runner, USC, leads by 2 games by virtue of three sweeps but they have a tough back half with UF, TAM, and UK all in the last four series.

UF would still have Vandy, TAM and LSU in the last four.

LSU: UM and UF

Vandy: TAM & UF

TAM: Vandy, USC, UM

UK: USC, UM

MSU: Nobody.

Go Dogs!

Should be OK so long as they don't let up like they did on some of those earlier midweek games.

 

[Digging dog]

Shhhhh. Bad JUJU.

This team clearly plays down and up to the competition. More likely to lose a

series to Alabama than lose a series to Texas A&M.

Although, it would make perfect Mississippi State baseball sense to get swept over SB Weekend.

Atta boy!

Thank goodness for rugb and whatever Voodoo or Dark Power that he has aligned himself with.**

I just looked at

the remaining schedules for the top 5 SECW teams, made very conservative estimates, and came out with us winning the West at 18-12. I have A&M in second at 17-13, LSU in third at 16-14, then both AL and UM at 15-15.

We basically have to just take our home series 2/3 and 1/3 on our road series (except for AU, got us at 2/3 there). I don't thing that's too big of a task.

Our schedule is vey front loaded. Our Missouri series could be tough. They're better than their record.

 

[KurtRambis4]

I don't think

many are expecting it to be easy, but playing them at home, you have to assume we take 2/3. They're 0-6 against two team that we are 4-2 (on the road) against.

 

[patdog]

I expect the Mizzou series to be pretty damn easy. They're terrible. I'll be disappointed if we take 2 out of 3. That should be a sweep. BTW, they lost to Missouri State 16-1 tonight.

 

[KurtRambis4]

I

don't think it'll be easy, as no series in the SEC is really easy, and I can't give too much weight to a midweek result. He'll look at us against OR and EKU.

When end you say easy, I'm thinking MVSU or JSU.
