NC State will face the winner of the Louisiana Tech-Rider game on Saturday. The Bama Maven gives his predictions for the matchup. A win for Alabama would be huge for the program.
With a win over Louisiana Tech on Saturday, Alabama is sure to advance to the College World Series. In addition to that, the Crimson Tide’s offense will also need to step up and win this game. With just 41 hits in two45 at bats over the last eight games, Bama’s offense needs to wake up and produce some high-quality production.
Despite missing Connor Prielipp, the Bama pitching staff has a solid pitching staff. The pitching staff is ranked in the bottom third in the SEC in ERA, opponent batting average, strikeouts, and walks, but it has been inconsistent against hitters, and it is not a good place to be without a good offense.
