Here are the weekend series:

GS at Louisiana
UALR at Ga. St.
USA at Ark. St.
Troy at App St.
UTA at ULM

Also Texas St at Baylor

Very interesting match ups this weekend.

This is not the best timing for us to roll into Lafayette...

Quick side note to this. This will be the final year in which the SBC plays on Easter Sunday. Beginning next year, these will be Thursday-Saturday series.

TXST Baylor is such a series . . . We play them tonight in San Marcos

As long as I've followed TXST baseball they had never played Easter Sunday. Series has been Thurs-Sat except last year in the SBC. Maybe a little Harrington influence?

Probably in preparation for the Liberty add.

BYU . . . . They don't do Sunday and are a better add . . .

T3, TX ST 2 Baylor 1

Harrington is part of it. Robicheaux, Harrington, Raffo, and Hennon were all in favor of playing Thursday-Saturday. One of the things that Raffo mentioned is that we have a different dymanic of coaches in the SBC now, many of which get along really well. It's led to a lot of agreements that never happened in previous years.

Easter is a tricky weekend in the SBC. It was always divided among coaches, and you saw that with scheduling. Better drawing teams like South Alabama, Troy, and the Cajuns rarely ever played at home on Easter Sunday Weekend. (Cajuns getting the short end of the stick this year may have helped this along. Someone seems to get it every year of the top tier programs) Those home series were always given to the teams who struggled to draw well. There were a lot unhappy with that arrangement. (I think AState and UALR have hosted every Easter for something like the last 10 years)

Robe has been pushing the "no baseball on Easter" deal for many years now. With the new adds in the SBC, including you guys, I think the idea gained a lot more steam over the last few years.

Now tied 6-6, Baylor still at bat in the 8th . . Only 1 out . . . Bobcats looking to once again snatch defeat from the jaws of victory . . . .

T8, we give up 5 runs and the lead, Baylor 8, Bobcats 6.

Going to xtras, tied at 8. . . . Still alive.

We have had a couple of nice wins in the midweek by Belt teams this week. Texas St. has a chance for another one tonight. Let s go Bobcats.
