Which of these reasons do you like the most for Auburn baseball?
Auburn's baseball team welcomed fans in the sweltering heat for a Reverse Tiger Walk as they boarded buses to head to Omaha for the 2nd time under Coach Butch Thompson. After being picked to finish last in the SEC West, Auburn baseball is one of eight teams left standing, four of which are from the SEC West.
With the upset of national #1 Tennessee at the hands of Notre Dame, the Omaha field is considered to be wide open, with seemingly every team having a shot to claim the trophy. Here are three reasons why Auburn could win (or lose) in Omaha:
WIN: Sonny DiChiara powers Auburn's offense to a dominant performance
LOSE: Auburn's offense struggles against high level pitching
WIN: Auburn's bullpen continues to keep runs off the board
LOSE: Auburn's starters allow early runs, exit early, and dig the offense a hole
WIN: Auburn's players rise to the moment
LOSE: The baseball gods don't shine on Auburn
