Their first 4 victories were a three-game sweep of Villanova and a single game win over Southern.
One of the Tigers' pre-SEC series is vs Illinois March 6th, 7th and 8th in Baton Rouge.

I haven't seen LSU play this well this early since '97-'98 teams.
Starting pitching has been solid. They haven't gone deep in games due to none of the games being close, so there is still a few question marks.
Lineup is smashing the ball all over the park right now (and the temperature and winds haven't shifted in the hitters' favor yet).
Coming into tonight, we're outscoring opponents 80-18 through 7 games.
Up 12-2 bottom of the 2nd @ UNO right now.
Competition hasn't been the best yet, so I'm not going to get over excited just yet. Illinois will probably be the toughest team we play when we get to that point.
