Not so fast, Meauxjeaux! Can't base this on just one round of games. LSU didn't look like the best team in the SEC Tourney after the first day, but we knew better. That said, here's my order:
LSU
Arkansas
ASU
CSF
Virginia
UNC
Texas
USM
Texas looked as underwhelming as usual (#1 seed my arse)and the only reason they aren't last is because USM walked in the winning run tonight.
Arkansas swept ASU earlier this year and they beat the crap out of a VERY good CSF team. They're hot at the right time.
As for ASU's pitching in the championship series, I'll take the Pepsi challenge between LSU's staff and any other team's in the CWS this year.
I believe that it will be LSU vs. ASU in the finals, but I would like to see Coleman get some payback on UNC. We'll see!

pitching.
If anything, consistency in hitting is what gives ASU the advantage over LSU. LSU's 1-2 punch at starting p is better than ASU's. But ASU's hitters are less vulnerable to pitchers changing from either side of the mound, mostly because ASU's hitters seem to be able to hit opposite field better than LSU.
If Anythony Ranaudo pitches like he did during the season, while the LSU bats continue to hit lefties like they have the last couple of weeks (and not poorly like they did during the season), LSU would have a decent shot at a 2 game sweep against ASU. Having those two things happen at the same time against ASU might be a big if though.

I would put ASU ahead of LSU at this point, just taking the 3 game champ. series into account.
