If #LSU beats Kentucky on Saturday it
will be 29-2, the Tigers' best record
ever after 31 games. The 1986 team
was 28-2 then lost.

LSU shuts down UK baseball 11-1:
The middle innings was a disaster for
the baseball Wildcats against LSU .

Kendall Rogers @KendallRogersPG (of Perfect Game)
#LSU rolling right now. Aaron Nola
struck out seven, allowed 1R, 4H in 7
IP, while JaCoby Jones had three
hits/2 RBIs in 11-1 win over #UK .
