re: Our RPI is 33 with 2 SEC series left to play

Taking the series from T&M was huge. It most likely did save our season

If we get left out, it comes down to 2 fricking games.
Game 2 against Florida and game 2 against Vandy.

We were up 2 runs going into the 8th against Florida, and had won game 1. We were up 1 run going into the 8th against Vandy, and again had won game 1. You finish the job in those, and you take both of those series. At that point, getting run-ruled in games 3 sucks (like it did with A&M), but it's more an issue for depth.
If we did that, we'd be 33-16, 11-13 in the SEC, with 5 series wins in 8 series, with all series losses on the road against good teams (swept at Arkansas and Tennessee, who will be national seeds, and 1-2 at Miss State, who may still host a regional, or at worst will be a 2 seed somewhere).
In other words we'd be in line to go .500 or better in the SEC, quite possibly still alive to get a regional host if we can sweep someone- that's assuming we finish winning the next 2 series. If so, we'd have won 7 of 10 series in the conference. We don't match up with Ark and Tenn, but we'd be in the tier right below.
