Key Storylines
Bettors should be sure to consider the following before making their college baseball picks for this game:
- Pitching form: LSU and Coastal Carolina won't have their top arms in the second game of this championship series. LSU missing Anderson could be especially impactful after he threw a complete-game shutout in the first game of this best-of-three matchup.
- Bullpen usage: LSU’s relievers were untouched in Game 1’s complete game, offering a fresh option if the starter falters in this game. Coastal Carolina's pen performed very well in the first game of this series, but they are not as well-rested as the Tigers going into this game, which coudl be a factor.
- Recent team streaks: Both teams have lost just one time in NCAA Tournament play this year, with Coastal's loss coming in Saturday's series opener.
Recent Trends & H2H
- Coastal Carolina is 26-1 in its last 27 games.
- LSU has won seven games in a row dating back to the regional round.
- Saturday's game was LSU's first win over Coastal Carolina in program history.

Final Thoughts
✅ Coastal Carolina has won 26 of its last 27 games entering this matchup.
We see this series going to a third and final game. Coastal Carolina should bounce back nicely from their loss on Saturday, taking advantage of the fact that Anderson is no longer an option on the mound. Look for the Chanticleers to win a close game here and to force a decider on Monday night for the national championship.
