re: LSU NIT hopes

Posted by BayouWolf on 3/15/24 at 6:26 am
Correct - if A&M does not make it, it will automatically be them and then either Ole Miss or LSU. Will be based solely on NET and as of this morning Ole Miss is 95 and LSU is 96…...
We are saying the same thing. Did you looks at MSU resume - they beat Arizona St, Northwestern (tourney team), Washington St (5 seed), Rutgers and North Texas on neutral floor and then beat Tennessee and Auburn at home. ...
You aren’t rationale. Our OOC schedule was fine. Dayton, North Texas, Wake, K-St, UT were all very quality opponents. The loss vs Nicholls cost us 10-15 spots in NET. Simple as that. Still not a tourney team avoiding that Q4 loss. Would’ve taken winning 2-3 of Dayton (buzzer beater), @UGA, @FLA and ...
As many have said, they have been very competitive in almost every game. NCAAT is a massive long shot but from a program perspective would be awesome to see a W against 1 of Tenn, Bama and UK. The profile looks drastically different if they don’t lose back to back games against Nicholls (crippli...

re: Last W this season?

Guys need to know their roles is my point. You need 2-3 guys that you can count on to play 30-35 min and consistently get you 45-50ppg between them. Ball runs through them most possessions and other players are “hot hand” and know their role (Ward as 3 and D wing, Dean as rebounder/energy guy, etc) ...

Have you watched Vandy play at all this year or did you see the box score of their game against Memphis? The Vandy team that is ranked 212 in KenPom, lost to Presbyterian and best win of the year is a 4 point victory of UNC Greensboro? That Vandy? LSU is struggling and they will likely not win a ...

re: Yeah, the coach matters

You know Ole Miss KenPom is #80 despite being 12-0. They’ve played a terrible schedule and beat a bunch of bad teams by small margins. They aren’t very good. Have you watched them play. LSU is currently #102 as data point. ...
Completely agree. Miller will be much better next year in my mind. ...
Tonight will be a battle but fans need perspective on where program is. We are marching towards 4th straight NCAA tourney appearance (would’ve clearly made it in 2020) and program has never been on more sturdy footing in the past 30+ years. Are their issues? Yes. Go look around the top 20 teams ...
Thanks!! Missed the email but all set now. Geaux tigers!...
Haven’t received yet and so wanted to check here. Thanks. ...

Thanks. Much appreciated. ...

When do LSU SECG tix get allocated?

I see they haven’t been determined yet. Assume this is happens Monday/Tuesday? Anybody know. ...

As mentioned, Arky and St Mary’s are both really close to being quad 1 wins. On the flip side, neutral win over Charleston is on the verge of becoming a quad 3 (Charleston is 100 in NET) but hanging on as quad 2 for now. ...

1/7 Update LSU's metrics have surprisingly not changed much since last week given they did not play. Going solely on metrics, they pencil out to a #9 or #10 seeds going into SEC play. They are currently 4-3 against Quad 1 and Quad 2 teams which is very solid, including 2 neutral site Quad 2 win...
1/2 Update - A few observations in changes from 2 weeks ago - - With LSU's 3-game winning streak over St Mary's, Furman and ULM, they have risen in every tracked ranking. - They improved ~9 spots (~2 seed lines) on average in the results-based metrics and ~4 spots (1 seed line) on the predic...

LSU b-ball up to #28 in NET

Posted by BayouWolf on 12/19/18 at 3:05 pm
Still very early but Wade’s scheduling, as he predicted, is so well done. Furman is #25 in NET today. ...
I'll plan to update this weekly, but below is LSU's "team sheet", which is what the selection committee uses to help select the NCAA Tourney field. I'm not going to regurgitate all the details but you can see an example from last year with definitions here: [img]https://i.turner.ncaa.com/sites/de...
