[QUOTE="MountaineerWV, post: 133067139, member: 1763401"] I don't disagree. What I was saying was that perhaps coach thought that the offense wasn't going to score much against LSU top guy who has been dominate this year, and wasn't willing to lose his best bullpen arms for game #2 in a game that he thought was about to get out of hand. But what happened was that the offense was up for the challenge, and scored 9 runs, but our pitching did what they have done much of the later part of the year........not throwing strikes. Hopefully tomorrow things go better. Would love to push this to a game 3, but it will likely be a game with the same arms that can't throw it over the plate. LSU is pretty damn good. They take advantage of freebies, as shown today with three long balls that scored the freebies.
