Wrapping up a title

LSU indeed have its best game -- when it needed it most -- on Wednesday.

So looking back at the best-of -hree series, LSU was dominant on Wednesday. Texas was dominant on Tuesday. And the difference was Monday, when LSU, down to its last out, rallied to force extra innings and then won.

While the hitters are getting a lot of accolades for tonight's performance, don't overlook the job the bullpen did again. In fact, save for a little trouble early on Tuesday, the bullpen was outstanding -- probably better than the starters.

But in a championship season, that's what it takes -- contributions up and down the line.
