Birds and Kats in a midweek contest shortly. SLC has on occasion sent 2 teams to the NCAA tourney. Long odds with the conference's present strength. However, IF LU can sustain this run, for the first time in years, midweek games may actually matter. EARLY to project such, but keep winning and.. ...

Well played.

Some polls not posted yet, but K-State at 23 in the Collegiate Baseball Writer's Poll may be the only ranking for a Big 12 team this week. Amazing may be on overused term, but when you consider the money, facilities, , name brands, etc...this is amazing.

Would love to see that too. HOWEVER, not only mighty early, the strength of schedule (SOS) will hurt tremendously. Latest RPI (Boyd's World as the NCAA utilized is not updated yet to my knowledge) has LU at 41 with a SOS of 240. The SOS won't raise much or any for the remainder of the season. SLC opponents are scattered from 120 to 230 range, thus no real bump and few strong mid week teams left. Also have TSU that is very low and Alcorn with the lowest RPI (305) in the nation. A 3 seed, as a 2 seed is essentially the same for tournament design purposes, would be great. Have to agree with my Uncle Spidey on that one.

May God have mercy on your soul.

He is Risen, Alleluia!

Birds sweep!! 6-3 win in the finale. Has LU ever swept a series against a ranked opponent?

Approximately 10 minutes until game time. A sweep would be outstanding. Tough task, but lace em up and play ball!

You 2 can tickle each other all you like. 😝 I'm just here for the baseball.

Negative? He's just pessimistic, gloomy, and cynical. That's all. Give em hell Uncle Spidey. I hope even Spidersal can laugh at this one. When Lamar is able to get out of a bad situation or gets a big hit, my father and I will often look at each other and say, "take that Spidersal" then laugh at own ignorance.

Uncle Spidey wants titles. He doesn't have time for our foolishness!

LU with a 13-8 win over OU. Go for the sweep of a ranked Big 12 team tomorrow!

Cards knock off #25 Sooners 12-10. Ugly game with 6 combined errors.

Winning streak comes to an end. Cards fall 6-4. Left 11 runners on base as they out hit Houston. OU next for a 3 game Easter weekend set starting on Thursday.

Battle of my alma matters. LU vs. UH in just a few. Nice to see the birds with 4 games in a row against Big 12 opponents.

Birds sweep. 11-9 finale. Start conference 3-0 and now sit 19-4 on the season. 4 games against Big 12 next week. U of H for 1 game and a 3 game series at ranked OU.

I was present for today's games.

LU takes game 1 with an 8-1 score. LU brought a pretty decent fan base to Houston today. It appears they out number the HCU fans.

Yes, they have played the bottom 3 teams in the present conference standings thus far. At present LU is 2 wins shy of last year's season total and is 7-1 and sitting in first place. 20'10 overall is a good record. Can they continue to win as they move forward in conference playing better teams?

Let's play 2. LU and HCU had today's game postponed and will play a double header tomorrow starting at 11.

9-3 over PV tonight. Travel to play the fighting Berkman's this weekend. All games in the series are day games with 2:00, 1:00, and 2:00 start times. This is the first conference series. HCU pitching is quite suspect, but they do have quality offensive production.

Eat em up Coogs!

Just looking over the weekends' box scores. How about these 2 stats?? LU pitchers strike out 28 batters and walked 1, yes just 1, in a 3 game series. 1 walk in 27 innings is tremendous at any level.

Quick game. Win 3-0 for the sweep. LU gives up 2 runs in 3 games. PV on Tuesday and open conference at HCU on Friday.

Cards take the first game today with a 5-1 final. Game 2 (3 of the series) will start at 4:20.
