The marquee match up of the past week was Carolina/Vandy. Carolina won the series, moved to #2 in the polls, and took control of the SEC East race.
Alabama, who was looking strong out west, now is in a struggle to keep pace, loosing 5 of their last 6 conference games, 2 of them to struggling Tennessee. The woes are sure to continue as they travel to Florida this upcoming weekend.
LSU appears to be playing for their NCAA tournament lives. A conference record of 4-11, and an upcoming series against Vanderbilt does not look good for the Tigers. I'm not picking the field of 64, but with their lone series win against Ole Miss, they will have to win the series against Vandy to put themselves onto more solid ground. Lose the series, and they will have to basically win their last 4 series to get in. Get swept, and they better win out.
The series to watch this upcoming week is Vandy hosting LSU. Can Vandy bounce back from their first series loss of the year, and how well do they perform against an LSU team that is used to winning. And from the other side, can LSU turn their season around?
