This is a big weekend for the Tigers against conference leaders Texas A&M. This should be an interesting battle with the Tigers giving up the most hits per 9 innings and the Aggies leading the conference with a .330 batting average. The Tigers split a pair of mid week games, defeating Eastern Illinois and losing to Souther Illinois. Potential Sunday starter Rick Zagone looked good against Eastern and hopefully is returning to his 2007 form. Note: The Aggies have won 12 straight conference games. A sweep is unlikely, but two out of three would send a huge message.
Probables (From A&M athletic site)
