It’s regional time. It’s here. Instead of coming into the Hattiesburg regional with three clear-cut starters, LSU is still wrestling with the same issue it's had all year: Trying to win without a reliable, go-to starting rotation. Can the Tigers get past Southern Miss (and eventually get to Omaha) without consistent starting pitching? Our beat writer, Leah Vann, explores that topic here as LSU gears up for its opener against Kennesaw State. Also: • At first glance, it doesn’t appear that history is on LSU’s side. Scott Rabalais says to think again: LSU can win the Hattiesburg regional and keep on playing. • Jacob Berry and Cade Doughty will play in the Hattiesburg regional, starting with Friday's opening game against Kennesaw State. • If you’re watching LSU-Kennesaw State from home, you’ll need ESPN+. That’s different from some of ESPN’s other platforms. Here’s how you can get it. Finally: • LSU athletic director Scott Woodward addressed everyone’s favorite new topic as the SEC spring meeting finished off a lively week in Destin. We’ll obviously have much more on the Hattiesburg regional as the weekend moves along, so stick with us, thank you for reading, and grab a seat. It’s regional time. |
