I figure we'll have a MUCH better idea which way this season could go after our trip to LA next weekend.

Sweeping OSU was an absolute must, which is why that comeback win was so huge. OSU is terrible (how can a school like OSU be so bad for so long?). Winning 2 at UCLA would say something to me. Winning 1 is a must.

It's not going to be an easy series going out to Los Angeles. UCLA just swept Nebraska over the weekend, but the Huskers are off to a really slow start to the season after being named one of the favorites to win the regular season championship during the preseason rankings/evaluations.

Sounds familiar

I saw where Purdue has a really gaudy looking 18-2 record right now. They had better hope that carries over to their conference schedule since they will have no chance to make the Field of 64 with their nonconference schedule the way it is. They did take 2 of 3 from the Gophers to open their conference season with the Gophers being one of those teams that will be hard pressed to make it into the conference tournament.

There is a total of 309 D1 baseball programs right now and the Boilers' SOS is ranked 281 with their nonconference SOS at 298. I just love to pick on the Boilers, ergo, this post.
