It is a shame it took so long, but for whatever reason, we no longer look like a bad team. Hell, in hindsight, even the Tenn series felt more competitive. The problem is, it is still baseball and you can lose games while playing well, ask A&M about that. And of course, this team can not afford to lose many more games (captain obvious shite, I know)

The path is rather well defined at this point. Go 5-3 or better the rest of the way and you are in the postseason. The positive is, you would have a team on the rise and not limping into a regional.

Let’s see how these 2 weekend games play out first. Cautiously optimistic.

No doubt. And while losing both would suck, I will be surprised if we aren't in both games late. I would not have felt that way a month ago. 5-3 feels a lot more in play now than it did then.

AtM could easily win the next 2 game with a 10 run mercy rule too. Southern beat the crap out of this team. Last night was great but means nothing for today or tomorrow.

Ehhh, I said before the weekend we needed to win 2 of 3 to have a realistic shot at the postseason and even after last night, we are more likely to lose the next two than split. A&M is that damn good.

The win last night against them though showed something. We don't make that comeback a few weeks ago. Like the previous poster said, cautiously optimistic should be the mindset.

But frick that noise. I am ready to be hurt. We sweep these bitches!

they are definitely a good team but I don’t know why everyone is acting like they are some team we have no shot at beating

Hence the "looked like we turned a corner" since then part.

Which would imply that losing to Southern over a month means even less than nothing today or tomorrow.

At which point I would realize I was dead wrong about the team having turned a corner and go back to the mindset I had a few weeks ago which was Abner Doubleday can go suck a bag of AIDS dicks.

Maybe, just maybe, the schedule got a lot easier after the Tennessee series.

LSU was competitive against Arkansas. The first two games weren’t decided until very late. LSU was very competitive against Florida and not for a dropped strike 3, LSU wins that series.

If only we completed the sweep against Auburn we’d be in a regional right now.

Granted we can make up ground today or tomorrow with a surprise series win against A&M so not too big a deal.

LSU goes 6-3 the rest of the way and I’ll bet any negatiger their trailer LSU makes a regional.
