In their defense they were also without Zach Cox, Brett Eibner, and one other key guy they lost in the first game in the SEC tourny. That is the equivelant of us losing Gibbs, Mahtook, and Dean.

And now for the real answer.

You people are treating the SEC tournament like it was 10000 times more important than the regular season, ESPECIALLY since we won it. The committee actually does look at what happened before May 30 when seeding teams.

What pisses me off is they care more about us going 4-14 than they do us starting out 32-6. There is no such thing as each game counting equally. It's all what have you done for me lately.

What you do in conference is most important to them, as it should be for SEC teams. That's when you play your best competition, and they see a 4-14 streak to finish out the year mostly in-conference.

I agree that we should not be a host, for two simple reasons: 1. We weren't a top 16 RPI, and 2. We went 14-16 in conference.

But it should have nothing to do with "streaks." Who cares how many we won or lost consecutively? It should be about the numbers as a whole. Weight should not be added towards the last month of the season.

In 2008 we also finished 43-16, and 18-11 in conference play. That's a pretty big difference from 40-20, 14-16.

.500 in the SEC. the sweeps at the end killed lsu's chances of hosting a regional.

What killed, or should have killed LSU's chances of hosting is the sub .500 conference record, not the fact that we lost games at the end of the season.

my point is if we won 2 out of 3 instead of the sweeps we took, we wouldn't have a sub .500 record in the sec. and this weekend I would be at the box instead of listening to JH butcher the games.
