Disagree. I think we are on the bubble right now; probably last 4 out. 5-3 in the regular season should be enough and how we go 5-3 is almost irrelevant.
5-3 with wins over UK and UF (on the road) would carry a hell of a lot more weight than 5-3 with losses to both of those teams.
Right now, LSU has a few "bad" losses and really only one "good" win. The committee doesn't focus strictly on where you finished in the conf. (Alabama was the West champ a few years back and didn't make the NCAAT). They look at:
Who you played in the OOC part of the schedule and how you did against those teams.
How many "bad" losses do you have vs. "good" wins. Those good wins will carry more weight than the bad losses.
Right now, LSU has one good win-UK and 3 bad (though not horrible) losses - Bama, UGA, RI. Couple that with the fact that their OOC schedule wasn't great, and LSU is on the outside looking in.
11-7 with a season sweep of UK, or wins over UK and UF would likely get LSU in.
11-7 with only one "good" win in the bunch probably won't cut it

Do these projections take into account a few cinderellas winning their conference tourneys and stealing a couple spots from bubble teams?

Maybe, but beating one of those teams would have to come with a trade off of another "bad loss".

If we beat Florida and Kentucky, who the hell are the other three teams that we lose to?
