“I tracked every game all week that was being played in conference tournaments, and tracked how it affected RPIs for other teams and how it affected ours, and honestly, I thought we were in. By my calculation, and I’m certainly bias about it, but I thought we were in. I felt like we deserved to be,” said LSU’s skipper. “When I saw some of the schools going up there in the early part of the selection show, quite frankly, I didn’t even think that they were in the competition with us for the bid, so obviously I was very surprised about some of the selections.”
