Best wishes to the Bama team!! Hopefully the batting coach for the softball team isn't allowed anywhere near the baseball players.

You'd really prefer to preserve your Friday starter but Bama may have to utilize Holman Friday night against Nicholls' ace.

It’s hard to gauge NS they really don’t play anybody and we might need to Holman and mcmillian for BC and Troy.

One really stinking good pitcher can alter a regional severely and getting out on the front foot is super important. May not be worth the risk to go for preserving arms.

It was a Tuesday night game, but on April 25th Nicholls beat lsu. I'm sure lsu sat some of their studs, but Nicholls must have some talent.

Yeah but LSU & MSU curb stomped them as well this season and they went 0-2 vs USA.
