Texas A&M baseball is on a complete heater right now. After getting sweet revenge on Jim Schlossnagle and Texas last weekend in an emotional two-game series in Blue Bell Park, the Aggies had a tough challenge ahead of them this weekend— go on the road to Baton Rouge and avoid an emotional letdown while taking on the preseason national title favorite LSU Tigers in Alex Box Stadium.
If this first game of the series is any indication, the Aggies had no issue at all with any emotional letdown in this one. Texas A&M cruised into Baton Rouge and just exited the first game of the series with a 10-4 win over the Tigers.

It should be said that LSU has not yet lived up to their preseason billing— there's still time left in the season, but so far, they have not looked at all like the impressive squad they were sold as in the offseason. Even so, what Texas A&M just did to dismantle them on the road is pretty uncommon, and points to just how much momentum this team has been building.

While some caution is commended here— after all, Earley and company looked quite good for stretches last season before hitting some pretty low lows— it looks like Texas A&M has turned things around from last season well and truly. This is a team that is now all of a sudden right in the middle of the conversation to be hosting in the supers— better than many had anticipated for this point in the year.

Texas A&M has done this on the power of some longtime stalwarts like Gavin Grahovac and Caden Sorrell, as well as some sensational freshmen in Jorian Wilson and Nico Partida. Even with star transfer Chris Hacopian still struggling at the plate, the Aggies have been putting together some impressive ball lately.
As the season wears on, the Aggies are slowly building some Omaha-level hype in Earley's second year. A lot of narratives are being rewritten right now about this team— don't get caught out too late to join in on the hype train.
