The LSU Tigers will take on the UCLA Bruins on Monday night at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha (Neb.) in the winner's bracket of the College World Series.

After taking down the Arkansas Razorbacks on Saturday, the Tigers move on with a clash against the Bruins set for Monday.

LSU ace Kade Anderson (11-1) worked 7.0 innings agaisnt Arkansas on night and limited the Razorbacks to one run on three hits with two walks and seven strikeouts, firing 100 pitches.

“An outstanding performance by Kade,” Johnson said. "It’s what we’ve been accustomed to on the opening night of every weekend this year. I thought he got stronger as the game went along. I thought he executed pitches at a really high level, which you have to do against that offense.

“Kade has got tremendous stuff. It’s four pitches for strikes. He’s never boxed into having to throw a certain way, which as a hitting coach makes it tough to plan against him because he can always pivot. He’s got a plan for any type of hitter, left, right, power, good bat-to-ball type guys, I thought he just executed. He’s such a tremendous competitor.”

Now, the stage is set for Monday night at Charles Schwab Field with an LSU versus UCLA battle locked in.
