The second-ranked LSU baseball team showed off its depth last night in a seven to three win against 19th-ranked Dallas Baptist in front of 57-hundred fans at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The Tigers took control with a four-run fifth inning, highlighted by two pinch-hit RBIs. An RBI double from Ethan Frey and an RBI single from John Pearson. In between those two hits, was a two-run home run from Daniel Dickinson. LSU will stay in Texas for the weekend and they’ll play in Frisco tomorrow against Kansas State.

Spring football is right around the corner and LSU is losing its defensive line coach as the New Orleans Saints are reportedly adding Bo Davis to their staff. Davis was the highest paid defensive line coach in college football as Coach Brian Kelly convinced him to leave Texas to coach at his alma mater. But now Davis is returning to the NFL. He was previously the Detroit Lions D-Line coach from 2018 to 2019.
