Any Oklahoma fans can tell me what to expect?

I have watched every game I was available to watch for LSU and attended the majority of the home games this year including the upcoming Supers. I was wondering if there were any Oklahoma fans that could tell me what to expect. I know you guys have a few solid pitchers, but what should I expect in terms of depth off the bench, depth of pitching staff, and how are the bats for the Sooners?

The bats have just started to come alive in this last month. They started off on fire and got up to 6th in the Country and then the offense went cold the middle part of the season. They have since picked it up.

Grey will be the number one player in the draft this year. He throws steadily at 105mph. You will most likely see him game one. His era is crazy. Overton is the #2 guy and not a huge drop off. He is pretty good as well. It's kind of pitching by committee after that.

Should be a pretty low scoring competitive series I think.

Any help in the pen if either guy gets into trouble? Or do these guys usually pitch 7-8 innings a game?

The sooners have gotten hot at the right time. They are on a roll and winning in BR would be a huge boost for them. Grey is a beast. Looking forward to the series.

I think LSU handles the Sooners without much ado.

My LSU fan instincts tell me otherwise. 2-1 with a late push sunday to seal the deal.

LSU isn't as great as they appear from the outside. Nola is a damn good pitcher but struggled this weekend and Eades has never been consistent as long as he has been a pitcher at LSU. The batting line-up is the best they have had since 2009. This team has a chance to win it all, but I am not one to say this is going to be a guaranteed series win against Oklahoma although I will say it is the team I wanted to play out of the VTech Regional.

I'm confident that we could run away with this series, but I don't think we will. I haven't heard any word on Glenn either who I feel is more consistent than Eades but lacks the pure talent Eades does. I'm really interested if they pitch Gray the same game as Nola. Expect a very low scoring game that night.

It's just medication for Add. Not a big deal and it's major league baseball that did the testing and not the Ncaa. He will be starting.

Sooners have Overton going tonight. He went 3rd round to the Red Sox. Should be another low scoring game.

Glad the Grey kid pitched! We didnt want any excuses.
Looks like LSU has punched the 1st ticket to Omaha heading into the 8th inning up 4-1.

Way to represent Tigers!
