Rice @ SHSU, March 4th

Predictions?

Very winnable game for the Bearkats.  I actually like their chances and wouldn't be at all surprised with an "upset" if you want to call it that.  That said, I'll stick with the Owls 6-3, but Sam is my choice to win the SLC this year.

I've been hearing ALOT of good things around campus about their chances of repeating their SLC title run last year... So I will definitely be at this game, and I'll let everyone know how it goes...

Congrats to the 'Kats on a big win.  Coach Johnson will have them as the premier SLC program before long.

Really, I remember Lamar beating Rice twice the year the Owls won the College Baseball World Series. I don't doubt Coach Johnson will have SHSU as one of the elite teams in the SLC but wait a couple years when Lamar renovates Vincent-Beck. SHSU has a first class facility and a first class coaching staff. Wait till Coach Gilligan has a first class facility.

Congratulations on beating the Owls and killing Lamar earlier this season. You guys have a fine athletic program in Huntsville.

That could be the makings of a fine SLC rivalry between the two.  Another question comes to mind though....If Johnson wins another SLC title or two, would he be content to stay in Huntsville, or would he leave if a bigger program came calling?  Just wondering a 'kat fans take since Johnson has been coaching forever and this may be a job he can retire in.

I think Jonhson is cozily settled in at Huntsville.

Just make sure to bounce back with a win tonight @ PV.  That could be a trap game if you guys don't go ready to play.  The PV baseball program has come a long way and has built up some respectability.  I'll be keeping my eyes on that one.  Best of luck.
