re: Saturday men’s basketball in the SEC

But the OOC schedule wasn't insurmountable. LSU should have beaten Dayton (shown as high as a 4 seed); they just choked late after amassing a 15 pt. lead midway in the 2nd half. Also teams like Syracuse, Texas, and K. State aren't powerhouses; it's possible none of them will make the Dance. And losing to Nicholls was inexcusable.

LSU has played much, much better since conference play began, and generally has looked like a cohesive unit.
