If LSU truly has a National seed locked up...
Posted by kjntgr on 5/24/17 at 10:59 pm129
Is there any advantage in improving that seed?
Does a 3 national seed have any advantage over the 8 national seed?
I'm your opinion

You want to avoid having the #4,5 and 8 seed. Oregon St is going to be a tough out in Omaha.
#2, 3, 6 and 7 seeds will likely be UNC/Louisville, Florida & one of the Texas schools if not LSU as a 6 or 7

Not really, maybe the committee will pair a lower national seed with a tougher regional host, but for the most part, they'll pair what is geographically convenient and the rest will be random.

Not really.
In terms of hosting a Super (which theoretically should improve your odds of getting to Omaha), there's really no difference between being a #1 or a #8.

Most years I would say it doesn't really matter, but I think this a great point.

It's not locked losing to Kentucky and everything else staying equal, UK could jump us.

If there is, it's too small to even be worth considering.
But, if you're asking if that means LSU should phone it in for the rest of the SEC tournament, the answer is no. Why?
1) Ideally, we would like for Lange, Poche, and Walker to all get a game in to stay on their usual schedules. Gotta win at least one more game to make that happen.
2) We want the team to remain fired up to compete in every game, every inning, every at bat.
3) Winning is fun.
With that said, we don't need Lange throwing 120 pitches or anything, even if that gives us the best chance to win. But I've heard some people saying we should just rest our starters, and I think that would be a terrible idea.

They say there is no advantage from the 1-8 slot
