After every victory, the LSU Tigers take a team photo. Daniel Dickinson wants THE photo. Instead of a stereotypical boozy senior trip at the end of his high school days, Dickinson went to Omaha, Nebraska. “I was on a travel ball team with the same kids since I was a freshman in high school,” the LSU second baseman said. “We played in a tournament that was in the area, so we stayed 10 minutes away (from the ballpark).

This is the address 16 super regional teams are trying to reach: 1200 Mike Fahey Street in Omaha, Nebraska. That’s the site of Charles Schwab Field Omaha, home of the College World Series. Super regionals begin across the country Friday and Saturday at eight on-campus sites. Only eight teams will survive the best-of-three series, eight teams that get to make the journey that is the goal for 307 schools back in February.

Little Rock 10, LSU 4. It’s as stunning an upset as has happened so far in this year’s NCAA tournament, and it’s been a wild NCAA tournament. It’s baseball. Anything can happen. Even the Yankees lost to the Rockies recently. Except it shouldn’t have happened. LSU is so much more talented than Little Rock. The Tigers had a more rested pitching staff. They’re playing at home, sleeping at home, eating at home (except LSU was designated the visiting team by NCAA rule, but don’t get me started).
