That one hurt. A&M gave up a season-high 31 runs on the weekend to the worst hitting team in the conference, and the Aggies are suddenly stumbling their way toward postseason play.
After the Aggies dropped 2 consecutive weekend series to Arkansas and LSU, there were a number of questions as to how the team would respond. A&M promptly followed those with a sweep of Tennessee in Knoxville, and things were looking up again as the Aggies got set to close the season against a pair of teams under .500 in SEC play. With the worst offensive team in the conference coming to Olsen Field for the first of the final 2 weekends of the year and A&M likely needing just 3 wins in the last 6 SEC games to lock up a national seed, Aggie fans were feeling quite confident.
