Only bracketology I could find.

nycbuckets has LSU as a 6 seed. LINK

StatSheets had LSU as a 4 seed before the Mizzou game. LINK

Well i'm headed to College Station this week to support the Tigers! Cant wait, wonder what section lsu fans will be in, i haven't bought my tickets yet


My husband & I are going and Ouron is too. Ouron has his tix already so you could post to ask him where he is.
Not sure where we'll be yet, but I just called the ticket office there. The player's family and guests reserved seating area are in section 124, so if you can buy tickets there you'll be near LSU fans for sure! They do have some available in that section right now, at their own ticket office.
Also if you can find any available, section 122 seating is right behind the visitor's bench. It's always nice for the team to hear cheers for them.

I just realized that this is A & M's last home game of the season, so the arena may get packed.

I hate all yall so much. I want to go so freaking bad, but I can't take off work right now. Really would love to get to an away game. Hopefully next year Im in a better situation to make a couple road trips.

100% agree. LSU will be the underdog in both games. Texas A&M is a solid club and beating them would be a very great accomplishment for LSU on the road. Ole Miss has struggled some lately, but they are a dangerous team who can be lights out for 40 minutes.


If we win at aTm and Ole Miss drops their game against Alabama, I think there's a good shot we're favored at home. Worst case if the above happens if we are a small dog, but that's just my opinion. I haven't been keeping up with Vegas too much this season.

Very possible. At this point I think LSU would be about a 3 point underdog. But a big win at aTm and another loss by Mississippi could drastically change that. People were starting to tweet that LSU was on verge of "bubble" when we were up big on Missouri. Obviously not anymore, but some people recognizing the skillz.

I'll be in section 104. Got the tickets from the A&M AD. Wish I would have gotten seats behind the bench though.

WORST CASE SCENARIO:
If LSU loses their remaining two games, LSU could end up in the 10 seed.


Actually, the real worst case scenario is if LSU loses their remaining two games, LSU could end up in the 11 seed and play on Wednesday...

But the only way that happens, I think, is if Vandy and Texas A&M both win both of their remaining games. A&M has us then is at Arkansas...Vandy is at Florida and has South Carolina at home. Long shot that Vandy beats Florida...but still, it's mathematically possible.

Outside of that, from what I can tell, LSU has enough power to win tiebreaker scenarios with any combination of Vandy and Texas A&M to avoid being the 11 seed.

Yea I decided that there was no reason Vandy was able to win their last two games so I decided to leave that one off.

I am with you on that...

Just give me anything not on Wednesday and I am happy to just roll the dice and see what happens. Would prefer not to play Florida early...but if it happens that way, then why not us to knock them out early?

Im just excited the two games we need to watch for our SEC hopes are on Tuesday. That way I can really know going into Wednesday what we can expect.

I wont say both of these last games are must wins, because we arent really playing for anything, but I think the majority of folks would be highly disappointed to the finish of the year if we lost both and ended up playing on the first day of the SECT. I think winning 1 of the 2 would be really good, winning both would be huge momentum going into the SECT, and hopefully as a 7 seed.

I get what you are saying, but these games could turn out to be huge if we land the 6/7 seed and make a deep run

I think our season has already been a success. LSU has vastly improved, fan appreciation has increased, and the future looks very bright. This was a rebuilding year. I obviously think winning games no matter what is best. If LSU loses Wednesday, I still 100% want a victory over OM even if it puts us in 8th.


Couldn't agree more...my expectations with this talent was for a 15 win team...in fact...out of all the SEC games, the game at Mizzou was the first where I thought our lack of size really got exposed..these kids play hard an am proud of this team regardless of the outcomes of the rest of the season!

nycbuckets is retarded. How do you have Arkansas as a 1 seed and LSU as a 6 seed (along with A&M). Makes no sense at all.

StatSheet....there is NO way that the SEC gets 6 teams in the NCAA tourney. 4 teams tops.
