Don't forget the Arky game 2 that went to extra innings after they blew the lead

Yeah, but that was a road game against a consensus Top 5 team. Same as the Tennessee series. Would be a nice feather in your cap, doesn't hurt to lose.

The Florida and Vandy losses cause huge, seismic shifts. Win those games, and forget official SEC standings, the perception is that LSU is equal/better than those teams, so we'd not be scrambling and anxious about an invite. We'd be likely viewed the same as South Carolina, Miss State and currently UGA- very good teams in the mix to host a regional, just not quite as good as the top teams.
Vandy is currently on the very bottom edge of that category, slightly ahead of Bama. If we took those two games, we jump both those teams in the pecking order.

We will jump Bama if we take that series, but I don't think we can catch Vandy. They will have the better record in conference, and took the series at our place. So however they end up, we're gonna be just a tick behind, no matter what.
