How to watch SEC opening series at Texas A&M

We’ve gotten through the appetizer. Now, it’s time for the main course.

SEC play is upon us, and it’s time to find out what this unanimously No. 1-ranked LSU baseball team is made of. The Tigers are 16-1 after their non-conference slate, and they open up their league schedule with a three-game road series against Texas A&M — which ranks as high as No. 11 in the polls — in College Station.

“I love the talent on our team; I think we match up great with anyone,” coach Jay Johnson said in a release. “Our players have shown a strong mindset, and I think if they continue to be themselves and execute the fundamentals – quality at-bats, play great defense, apply strike zone pressure from the mound – we will be headed in the right direction. Playing in the SEC is difficult, but that’s also what makes it awesome to play in these games.

“This is how you test how good you are, and that’s exciting. Texas A&M is a great team, and they have a lot of veteran players that were on their College World Series team last year. It should be a great challenge.”

LSU is riding an 11-game winning streak entering this series, its longest since 2017, while the Aggies are coming off a College World Series appearance in 2022 and boast a ranked win on the year against Texas Tech in a 16-inning thriller.
