March 21: LSU spring football practice is here; a big weekend vs. Florida at Alex Box

Beat writers Wilson Alexander and Koki Riley join sports editor Perryn Keys to break down the LSU baseball team's rough weekend at Mississippi State, a huge weekend against Florida and a fresh look at spring football practice. Brought to you by Champion Wealth Strategies. Koki begins by breaking down what happened at Mississippi State — especially with the starting rotation but also in the bullpen, as the Tigers dropped two of three games in Starkville. We also take a look at Tommy White's hot streak and what to expect as No. 5 LSU takes on No. 6 Florida in a rematch of the College World Series finals. Wilson also comes on to take a fresh look at LSU football spring practice, where third-year coach Brian Kelly said the 2024 team could have the best player leadership since he arrived. The guys also discuss Garrett Nussmeier's initiative, the more frequent usage of two-tight-end formations and which returning wide receivers are getting more reps with the first-team offense.  We then take on the issue of the 2025 SEC schedule, which will remain at eight conference games.
