LSU basketball cracks ESPN RPI top 100; Lunardi has them as 1st team out

if (and that's a big if) we beat aTm, it might move us into the bracket so long as we don't crash and burn the rest of the way.

Oh boy.... Here comes bnfii....

so close to being one of the 68 best teams in the ncaa!

no dipshit. that is by no means how it works.

here is a google for you : Automatic qualifiers in the NCAA tournament

As I said last time, game by game. Beat A&M.

Equally as important, we are battling for first place in the conference. While there aren't any great teams in the SEC, it is fairly solid top to bottom. A top 4 finish in the Conference would probably get us in (assuming the losses aren't terrible).

No way this team should be fightning for a spot with the likes of teams of seton hall, oregon st, etc

I agree 100%. Unfortunately, that's where the team is at this point and there is no way to change the ugly Nov./Dec. performances. That said, if LSU can keep winning, they can change the narrative of their season. It would almost be like two seasons. The first part without their 2nd and 3rd leading scorers and the second part with them

This, like the first week of SEC play, is one that presents opportunities that could define the season. A&M is clearly the best team in the SEC right now and Bama has a good RPI. If they can somehow win both games this week, then they likely put themselves in a position to make the NCAAT

10-4 in the remaining games and make it to the 3rd round of the SEC playoffs. Anything below that and we will need a lot of help.
