Baseball is the great equalizer and it's still too early in the season to get a feel for how things will shake out
They have alot of talent as usual and they have an outstanding coach. Fully expect them to be a strong contender for Omaha.
Too early
Hoping they aren't as good as they're ranked. Howdy, Jace!
Gig'em, Ole Army Class of '70
They got run ruled by Northwestern State last year and won the championship.

considering they almost lost a game to Milwaukee and Dartmouth I feel they aren't that good.
Is this your first season to watch baseball? At any level?
Their offense is in a slump right now. Check in a month from now.
Too early to tell. Offense has sputtered the last 4 games as the poster above stated. The 4 games prior to that they smoked three P4 schools plus Kent St. They've also been without their leadoff hitter Stanfield since game 2.
LSU has a long history of slow starts, then going to Omaha.
Crawfish season just started so when baseball gets their fill, they usually start their run.
Of course, I'm always little happy to see a regional rival have a flat season

LSU losing 10-0 to northeastern in 3rd
LSU baseball faithful are not happy. Lot of ball to play but they look like garbage against "inferior" competition right now.
They are getting hammered so far tonight! And they're not pitching scrubs

They aren't pitching their top guys either, this is their 4th game since Friday

They lost to Sacramento St this evening.
They may be exactly like we were last year. Coming into the season at the top after finishing the previous year with a championship game 3 appearance. Doesn't take a lot to change a team in an offseason.
And Sac St had a 3-9 record. Their rpi is no. 204.
And we beat their basketball team. Again.

Even though the first two losses to scrubs weren't enough to move LSU down from the No. 2 ranking you have to think two more bad losses this week (so far) might be enough to do the trick.
Losses to McNeese, Northeastern, UL-Lafayette, and Sac. State - 3 of which were home games. 25% of the games they've played have been losses to those guys.
It's fun no matter how I phrase it.

It's the SEC Post-Championship Jinx. We should've won two years ago which is why we got the jinx instead of Tenn.
I expect them to have year like Florida seems to have quite frequently. Middle of the road regular season and turn it on in May.

They're going to take quite a tumble after losing 3 games this week (hopefully 4 after tomorrow)
Aren't they now a roster that is fully due to Jonhnson and not Mineri?

Didn't see this nice LSU **** posting thread. From another:

If LSU isn't out of the Top 5 next batch of rankings, I say we riot. Hell, even Top 8
Hard to read TOOO much into these stats, as they are OOC stats only. But, LSU is last in the conference in team ERA. Last in the conference in team fielding percentage and 3 last in the conference in team BA.
Lsu is currently 137 in RPI with 4 quad 4 losses and, including, a series quad 4 loss. They have dug themselves a legitimate hole. To put this into perspective, since 2020, A&M has 6 quad 4 losses total.
Dropped the series with Sac. State with the Hornets taking the finale in Baton Rouge 6-1.
The 5 bad losses (4 at home) in their first 17 games (no good wins) were enough to secure the Tigers the No. 13 spot in the most recent D-1 poll.

Dropping 11 places is a big drop for baseball rankings which typically move slowly, but it should have been bigger. No way have they earned a #13 rankingnat this point.
David needs to press Kendall on LSU's ranking . I know they will get things figured out , at some point, but they have no business at 13 .
Is it really that big of a deal? Did you expect them to go from number 2 to unranked in one week?
