Jason Bilous, P, Coastal Carolina

In its biggest game of the season, Coastal Carolina is "likely" turning to freshman Jason Bilous to take on Texas Tech on Thursday, per Ryan Young of MyrtleBeachOnline.com.

Head coach Gary Gilmore is making this decision even with Andrew Beckwith having almost five full days of rest after he shut down Florida in the Chanticleers' first-ever appearance in Omaha, allowing just one run on seven hits in a complete-game effort. 

He spoke about his decision with Young:

"

Just off the top of my head, I would assume we’ll go with Bilous. I mean he’s the freshest arm and he’s going to have to do the job. I’m not going to jeopardize Beckwith, and I don’t know if he can pitch Friday [either]. But we’ll see, we already talked about it a minute ago, he’ll let me know. If we can win Thursday we’ll figure [it out], it may be every man on board on Friday to try to get to him on Saturday in a do-or-die game.

So we’ll see. As much as I want to win, I’m not going to put that young man’s health in jeopardy.

"

For such an important game, it's a tough blow for Coastal Carolina to be without its ace. Here is how Bilous stacks up compared to Beckwith:

Beckwith	Stat	Bilous
102.1	Innings	42.1
13-1	Record	3-1
2.02	ERA	4.04
68	Strkeouts	45

Bilous hasn't had a whole lot of experience on the collegiate level, either. The Texas Tech lineup could be champing at the bit to get in the batter's box on Thursday. 

After all, this is a Red Raiders offense that ranked 17th in the nation with 454 runs scored this season. If it can get to the young Bilous early, there might be no coming back for Coastal Carolina.
