Thats alot of our better relief used already, granted most for a very short time. The big question is now, with the win, who to start in Sunday's game. Granted that will change depending on how today goes, but no matter the outcome, it basically boils down to Bradshaw or a not-as-fresh Alsup (not that it was a long outing, but 2 innings is nothing to ignore).
Meanwhile, UCLA strolled to a very easy blowout of KSU last night. UCLA was impressive and KSU made some pretty silly errors. They got ahead big early and coasted to a win. With multiple substitutions as early as the 5th, the Bruins will be very well rested for the game tonight.
Elsewhere, In our paired regional it was a double upset night, with New Mexico pulling a mild upset of Stanford and Minnesota pulling off the shocker of the weekend by blanking CS Fullerton. If things work out, their could be a huge reward waiting for us if we can get out of this regional.
Despite yesterdays heroics, today should see the best game in all of college baseball this weekend. Ranaudo v. Bauer for the drivers seat in the Regional. I'm almost positive Ott will be brought in at some point, and it's make or break time for him. I hope we can give him a nice cushion before sending him out there.
I can only imagine how different the mood in JRS will be today. I'm not sure how UCLA's baseball team will be affected by Wooden's death. His effect on that university and all of it's members is so profound that the only thing I can think to compare it to would be what would happen if we lost Bertman. That is to say, it's a loss felt by the entire community, not just the basketball program.
Weather: you know already
TV: Cox Sports on the tube, 98.1 on the dial, ESPN3.com on the interwebs (if you are out of the blackout region).
The ETAHS fight for their lives against a creampuff at 4 CST(don't say we never did anything nice for you Gillespie) then we tip off.
Full game replay of LSU-UCI. The good bit starts at 4h:07m.

Def one of the best college basketball coaches of all time R.I.P. Coach Wooden…but we gone put it on his bruins tonight LSU LSU LSU LSU

kinda chuckling at that
One of the best? Shoooot. He’s it. And there’s not really a second place. Not getting caught up in all the hype like there is when someone special passes, but look at what the man accomplished. Look at that hardware up there. And most of all, look at his legacy. It’s bigger than life.
That’s what I meant the man IS college basketball

GEAUX TIGERS!!!
Anybody know how to hack ESPN3?

i had the benefit
of having a friend over and we spent most of this game involved in conversation over the oil leak and physics with only paying attention to the radio as I caught bits and pieces. I see now that a conversation like that was way better than paying full attention.
but we’re not done until the final out, gawdamnye

Tonight, there’s going to be a little pow wow.
Tomorrow, we go out, take care of business, and that’s that. We’re going to put this loss behind us and you’re going to see 3 whole games of vintage, kick-ass LSU baseball.

Watson Tiger
by the by, unless you have the mental power of a grapefruit, I’m Montag. And you’re dkgeauxteam!!!.
well met sir
I am DK
bamachine hangs around here some too.
together, we form the SEC! SEC! SEC! Embassy to Shaggy.
Corazon y Alma
yep
i figured out bamachine.
and yes, it seems we are the three kings visiting that offal filled manger that is shaggy. a hale and hearty greeting.
i'm about to leave for good.
with a blaze of glory. It’s tempting. I just dont get as much enjoyment from there anymore.
Corazon y Alma
it's a good spot
bdtter than HornFans.
if anything, just hold on until November when several of them, friends of mine, make it to BR, for the LSU/Bama game. The circle I know is an exemplary circle of guys and Horn fans.
Otherwise, don’t let the assholes there get to you. there’s plenty of nice guys around there.
i will admit
it’s not as fun as it used to be.
that’s the inevitable course of any site as it get more and more popular.
Thank you for the tribute to John Wooden
It’s difficult to explain how much he means to our school and community, not to mention basketball and sports in general.
Please go beat UCI tomorrow. I’d love to have a rematch between the Bruins and Tigers. LSU fans have been a class act, all the way.
Thank you, and god luck tomorrow
We have enjoyed the cross-blog interaction over at Bruins Nation this week, and I wouldn’t mind having one more opportunity to have some of you guys over. And to second MWbruin, thank you for the thoughts today.
