I am sure it has been asked but are the announcers for this game student interns?

Here is the back side of the rosters they handed out at the LSU game. I don’t know if this is irony but it’s something.

LSU @ Texas - 6:30 on LHN
My take aways from LSU game. The good: LBJ looked really fucking good. I couldn't tell if it was a slider or split that he was throwing around 89mph but it moved like a mother fucker and LSU had no clue what to do with it. He located his fastball very well and ended up with a shit ton of Ks. Campbell is finally seeing the ball. He hit it hard just right at people. Burke is going to be a monster. Guillemette had some nice swings and is solid on defense. Although our offense didn't produce a run, they were were competitive against stellar pitching. The first lefty out of the pen for LSU, who looked like a fat member of an outlaw biker gang, was nasty as shit. Everything he threw moved. Kennedy is a great defensive player. The Bad: Daly continues to struggle at the plate and looks nothing like he did freshman year. O'Dowd looked utterly clueless up there. Even thought Kennedy doubled, it was a very weird swing he put on that ball. Thomas missed an easy pick. Pierce made some very odd decisions about who should be on the hill. This team has no power.

Duplantier didn't look comfortable in his warm ups. You could see it on his face. He was either nervous as shit, in pain or knew he didn't have it. Burke should have been in the game in the 8th and 9th. He has the correct mentality. That dude is a closer.

Digging Brown. Hey isn't a world beater but he does what a lot of hitters don't, he fucking punishes you when you make a mistake.

Who Will Be at the LSU game?
Bringing entire family, so I can't finagle a trip to LF but curious if anyone else will be there.

Everything he throws has movement when he keeps it low in the zone.

Love his arm angle. Love his stuff. His control is concerning. 3 BB in 5 IP is going to get you beat by better teams.

Kash was the guy who looked like he had never seen a curveball, right? Missing by a foot and swinging after the ball was in the mitt?

Yeah, the way he just drifts to fly balls and ultimately doesn’t get there is frustrating.

Pierce should punish this team. No stopping at Bucees on the way home. You'll get beaver nuggets when you pry them from his cold, dead hands.

So Texas is 0-2 and each loss was by 1 run. Arkansas is the number 6 team in the country. We are likely going to get ass-raped by Vandy tomorrow. However, this team is very young and they will get better every time out. Nerves played a big part in these losses. That should resolve by mid-March. Does it look like sloppy baseball compared to last year? Of course, we lost Melendez, Messinger, Ardoin, Hodo, Faltine and 33% of our rotation. Not to mention, the guys with experience who transferred. When you replace the best player in the country, one of the best catchers to play at Texas in the modern era and a 3B with 4 years experience with freshman, it won't look the same. There are going to be growing pains for sure but it isn't a throw away season. Campbell will come around. Hopefully Daly will pull his head out and return to 2021 form. If those dudes would just drive in runs or get on base, these two games end differently. I dont expect this team to get to Omaha but it won't be 2019 either.

Yep. We could win the CWS and if Melendez hit an HR in the Alumni game off a freshman walk-on there are dudes in here that would condemn the season.

Gordon was solid against a very good team. I did not expect this team to hit well early in the season and they didn't. Our defense failed at very important times but wasn't terrible.

This inning reminds me of when I coached beep-baseball, except the blind executed better.

Nixon is a total mystery. He was so good the year prior. I have a feeling he is going to be dominate at MSU.
