The LSU Tigers enter tonight’s game against Tulane with a four-game winning streak. Cade Arrambide has been swinging a hot bat since his four-home-run performance on Easter Sunday, but Arrambide credits the four freshmen — Omar Serna, Mason Braun, Jack Ruckert and William Patrick — for giving the team a lift.

Cut 17 (17)  “…what we needed.”

Tulane is 23-and-26 and were swept last weekend by Charlotte.

In other action tonight…Louisiana Tech hosts Northwestern State…the Bulldogs already own two wins over the Demons and have won five straight over N-S-U. UNO is at U-L Lafayette, Nicholls visits 11th-ranked Mississippi State, ULM hosts Mississippi Valley, and Southern takes on Jackson State.

Saints running back Alvin Kamara sounds very much like a man who will be with the Black and Gold for his tenth season. Kamara was a guest on his former teammate’s podcast, “The Set” hosted by Terron Armstead. Kamara says he’s excited to play Travis Etienne (AY-chan), who New Orleans signed as a free agent from Jacksonville. Kamara added he could not be happier that the Saints signed Eitenne.

Louisiana Tech’s 13-year relationship with Conference USA is winding down, as the Bulldogs are gearing up to join the Sun Belt on July 1st. Athletic Director Ryan Ivey says having in-state rivals again and other conference foes nearby is a big deal for the athletic department.

Cut 18 (13)  “…standpoint as well.”

Ivey says the fan base is energized by the move to the Sun Belt.
