The LSU Tigers will square off against in-state foe New Orleans on Tuesday night with the Privateers making the short drive over to Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field for a midweek clash.

In what has quickly become a difficult season in Baton Rouge, the defending National Champion LSU Tigers will look to get back on track against a non-conference opponent after six consecutive SEC losses.

"This will never happen again. We need to be able to stay on the ball better and hit the ball back through the middle of the field in the other way and hit the ball lower with shorter swings," Johnson said on Friday.

"I made some mistakes in constructing the team and trying to replace two guys that were irreplaceable where we should have looked for replacing them through guys that were already in the program and then replaced the guys that were athletic and could play defense and be more complete players.

"We won't make that mistake again. The power moving forward will come from players that start their career here and develop into it, like Jake [Brown] has this year. But I can't do anything about that now. But what I can do is try to get them to understand, like, Texas A&M, a top-five team, won the game tonight because they hit the ball hard and low the other way."

Now, all eyes are on Tuesday night with the LSU Tigers looking to get back in the win column.
