Advocate article indicates that KPI will also be used to rank teams by the selection committee. KPI rates every team's win and loss on a point scale that factors in the score of the game, its location and strength of opponent, among other factors.
LSU's KPI is currently 21.

A 21 sounds, and is, good. Unfortunately, 9 other SEC teams are still above us. Really hope they don’t cap conferences when clearly SEC teams are at the top of all their metrics.

Unfortunately, LSU needed help that they didn’t get both last and this weekend. Florida losing the series vs Georgia was one of the things that needed to happen but didn’t. The weekend before as well with Ole Miss and Texas A&M. There were other teams that shite the bed as well.

With that, I don’t think they get in even if they make a little run in the SEC tournament. The losses to Florida and Alabama were the nails in the coffin.

Of course they could win the SEC tournament and get the automatic bid.

Another factor could be their won— loss record after those first 5 series.

The Kyle Peterson Index is a little too favorable and biased toward West Coast teams.

Good post Goose. LSU is also 13 in the ELO rankings. I don’t see how the committee could possibly leave them out. Only way would be if they have a cap on number of SEC teams.

Biggest gain was run ruling La Tech at home. Biggest negative was Southern loss.

The problem is that there are 4 other SEC teams that are 13-17 and have a better RPI than LSU. And 3 of those 4 have a series win against us. That’s a major problem.
