Sports aren’t scripted, and that’s why it’s far more dramatic, shocking, and unpredictable than even the best written movies or TV shows.
Take Friday night at the SEC Tournament for example, when Jay Johnson used Kade Anderson and Anthony Eyanson together to help LSU survive and advance to the semifinal round after beating Texas A&M 4-3.
“We have asked a lot out of these two guys, and they are the reason that we are sitting here, the reason we’re not getting on an airplane to go play from this point forward,” Johnson said. “So I felt like this was a good week to kind of minimize what we asked of them and their load to get them fresher and better for next week.
