Beating Wake Forest on Dec 29 would help. Beating Oklahoma in late January would help too.

this is the problem people aren't seeing when they say "lsu will get better." that's not how the postseason works. the committee looks at ooc record. they see losses to marquette and nc state. if lsu is going to make the tourney, they need signature occ wins to cover up those losses. where is lsu going to get those wins? if lsu had beaten marquette, they likely could have split nc state and wake forest and be alright combined with an impressive conference record. now, wf and okla are must wins unless lsu rips through the conference games and sec tourney.

these 2 losses hurt way worse than some people are admitting.
