Yes

We’re a 1 1/2 back.

We can go 2/3 and they get swept too.

Correct.

We need to win all three and need Arky to lose two.

The only thing that really matters is that we win 2. That gets us a national seed. Winning the SEC west would be nice, but is irrelevant.

Vandy is down 2 of their top pitchers this weekend.

Correct. Can also earn the #1 seed and be the "SEC Regular Season Champions" with Kentucky taking 1 game vs Florida in that scenario.

I believe the magic number for LSU is 19. If LSU takes 2/3 then they're guaranteed a Top 4 seed and are almost a lock for a national top 8.

Eta: Nm, just need 1 win to lock up a bye.

Arkansas is 6-7 in true road games this year. Vandy is pretty solid at home being down a couple pitchers will be tough but I like Vandys chances of taking 2/3 this weekend

Winning the west means absolutely nothing. Just be a top four seed and we have the same privileges. I believe we need to win one game to ensure that.

True, but it always helps to essentially take the National Seed decision out of the committees hands.

bullshite it does mean something. It engages the fans and our idiot fans need something to be happy about. It motivates the players. And the players are the ones that we need 100% locked in and ready to go. It’s about accomplishing goals along the way. Is winning the west our ultimate goal? No you dumbasses but it is a step in the right direction and according to the Rant the sky is falling so I think we could use something to be happy about.

And mother frick all you idiots that want our team to just give up. Bunch of nancies around here.

LSU can sweep and arky go 1 &1 with a rain out and we get tie breaker.

Well unless you're undefeated this happens in every sport. See once you lose you need other teams to lose. So not sure why this matters at all.

We have bigger fish to fry. We don't hang SEC West banners. This is not Oxford.
