I will only add that we really have opportunity ahead of us, but if we're going to sniff the NCAAT, we really need a few marquee wins. We do get games @Tenn, 2x Bama, vs UK, vs. State to help the resume.
Sweeping TAMU this Saturday would be a great start. I think TAMU will likely be 1-2 point favorit
LSU currently sits at NET 91, KenPom 85, RPI 105. CMM has to schedule better OOC. Given the upcoming schedule, I felt like LSU could go 2-2 for Auburn, Ole Miss, A&M, and UGA. A&M and @UGA will both be tough, but they are both winnable games. Even a split gets LSU to 4-2 before a brutal stretch of conf play. Before Cook returned, it looked like Vandy at home might be the only sure conf win. So, it is very encouraging to be talking about 6-8 wins for this team, but, you are right; they need a couple of big wins to get them over the hump for the postseason.

LSU’s OOC schedule is (currently) ranked higher than:
Auburn
Kentucky
Mississippi St
Ole Miss
Georgia
South Carolina
And it could have been better had the beat Dayton. The schedule is not the reason for the low NET rating. It’s that LSU hasn’t beaten anyone with a damn besides Wake Forest and A&M (with respect to the NET) ratings, along with the fact their predictive analytics numbers aren’t good. Largely because they have not been efficient offensively…because they can’t stop turning the ball over.
These next 9 games present several great opportunities to improve those numbers
