Living here in Raleigh area, you don't get to see lot of LSU coverage. With UNC set up to play against tigers, finally some good coverage. NC State Coach Elliott Avent on all 8 teams.. Link : newsobserver.com | Avent likes Miami's chances "FAVORITE: Miami. Miami, overall, is the best team we saw all season. They don't have any glaring weak spots. What they could have are a couple of areas of concern, I guess you might say. One is left-handed relief pitching, and the other could be overall pitching depth. But they are one terrific team. They're going to be extremely difficult for anyone to beat over the course of the entire tournament. The best team doesn't always win, but Miami is really, really good. I don't see how you could pick against them." DARK HORSE: LSU. "We didn't play against this team, so I don't have a first-hand scouting report or anything like that. What I do know is that they were just about impossible to beat during the final few games of the season, and that's something you can't throw out. Hot teams are hard to beat under any circumstances. LSU, in my opinion, is still a very hot team, and there can't be many questions about their talent level. That's always about as high as you can ask for." --------------------------------------------------------------------- Tar Heels facing hot team LSU's comeback kids 25-1 in past 26 games Link : newsobserver.com | Tar Heels facing hot team "OMAHA, NEB. - LSU's 21-7 victory over UC Irvine on Monday was so dominating that North Carolina coach Mike Fox said he had to turn off the television. Don't make that mistake Sunday night when the No. 2 seed Tar Heels (51-12) open the College World Series against the No. 7 Tigers -- even if Carolina is winning big in the final inning......" Enjoy. I know I did :geaux:
