I think elite 8 is the ceiling for this team.


That would still be a great season but less than expected. If the problem is the starting five just has not played enough together another month should cure some of that. Every team in the top 10 has certain weaknesses and given the right opponent like Iowa vs South Carolina last year any team can be beaten no matter how formidable they seem.

The Tigers need to continue to develop within the framework they have and make better decisions. Del Rosario's continued development will be huge. Poa has to give them 10 to 15 minutes of positive play.

Most of all the starters need to find a way to get recharged physically between the end of the regular season and the start of the NCAA tournament. They should get a few days rest after the regular season , play only two games in the SEC tournament like last season and rest up. Then matchups become crucial during Sweet 16 play.

As of today, LSU would be a #4 seed and host a regional which includes a #5 seed. I think we can win that regional beating the #5 seed closely.

If we remain a #4 seed, we would most likely face the #1 regional seed in the Sweet 16. That could be a big challenge for a defensively challenged team.

The key for this team, IMO, is shooting. When we are shooting well, all 5 starters, we can beat anyone including Carolina. We almost beat the Lady Cocks even when Mikaylah was shooting poorly.
