Jan. 25: Previewing LSU baseball AND LSU-South Carolina

Beat writers Reed Darcey and Koki Riley join sports editor Perryn Keys to discuss the start of LSU baseball practice and to take a final look at the big women's basketball dukeroo between LSU and South Carolina. Brought to you by Champion Wealth Strategies. Koki breaks down the potential starting rotation for LSU's baseball team as preseason practice begins, as well as a deep bullpen loaded with left-handers. The guys then discuss how the lineup will look compared to last year's national champioonship team.  We then take a final look at LSU vs. South Carolina — whether the Tigers have enough depth to handle the No. 1 team in the nation; what LSU needs to do to come out with a win, and whether fans should stay off the court of LSU pulls the upset. (The Tigers are 9½-point underdogs.)
