NIT is a reasonable goal. I am hesitant to read too much into this win because Arkansas is such a mess right now, so it's more about getting better individually and collectively and the upcoming games will give us a much better idea if we are really getting that or not.

Arkansas is a mess, but I've seen enough to say LSU is very much improved from last year. The SEC games that LSU has won have all been by 8 or more points, they have two losses that were by a combined 6 points, and their other two losses were on the road to two of the best teams in the league at Auburn and Bama. LSU made a tremendous comeback at Auburn after being down 28 to cut it to 8 points with less than 5 minutes to go. At Bama, LSU played a really good 1st half putting up 44 and being down only 6. They just couldn't stop Bama and put on a very poor defensive performance in the 2nd half.

This team is competing fine against SEC teams. That was not the case last year, so it's nice to see.

Yep. NIT would be good after the dumpster fire of last year.
