(16:58) College Baseball World Series Reactions So Far
The outcomes of games so far in the World Series have been chalky but the games have been close as dogs have been covering the run lines due to games being fairly low scoring as the under on runs continues to hit.
TCU has a number of superstitions that seem to be working well. They haven’t washed their batting gloves for almost half the year, and they have been eating iHop for breakfast. In addition, their third base coach has worn a sweatshirt each game, even in 95-degree heat.
(26:10) Florida (-160) vs TCU (+130)
Cole Klecker is the best TCU pitcher, and he will probably start on a short college rest. Florida’s bullpen is strong, but TCU can steal a game in the first one as Florida’s bullpen bolsters in Game 2.
(33:54) Wake Forest vs LSU
The biggest question of LSU is their pitching but they had a good pitching performance last game. On the other hand, Wake Forest has an elite pitching lab resulting in a number of tough pitchers. LSU has trouble against lefty pitchers, only averaging 3.4 runs per game. They will likely have to face a lefty in Game 1.
