It’s weird how a Sunday win in a series, even if you get thoroughly trounced the two games before, can brighten the mood just enough to give you hope again. It still doesn’t change LSU’s situation that much, but Saturday’s nailbiter and the close-till-the-end loss on Friday shows, I think, that there’s still some fight in this team. Even if there are still not enough (and now, maybe even less) arms to keep this team above water.
With 7 days to go before Hoover, LSU is 4 games behind in the West and very unlikely to get enough help to avoid playing in the single elimination round next Tuesday.
