going 13-17 in conference does not get you a host spot no matter what you do in the conference tourney.

We beat 2 top 10 teams who threw their bull pen against our aces....some of ya'll need to pump the brakes and be happy we get to watch LSU baseball past this weekend.

A 3 seed is probable, a 2 seed would be great given that we were on the bubble coming into Tuesday

seems everyone forgets we went 14-16 in the SEC in 2010 and won the SEC tournament.

We were sent to the UCLA regional across the country that year.

ETA: baseball America still has us as a 3-seed as of 5/23. D1baseball has us as a 3-seed today still too based off the comments in an article I read by Mark Etheridge last night.

Exactly. The last two games have been great. Hopefully it is a definitive sign that LSU is rounding into the form we thought they would have before the season at just the right time. But the extreme overreaction that LSU would go from possibly not reaching the NCAA Tournament to hosting a regional simply because of the result of a few games in the SEC Tournament is absurd. There is a better chance that LSU misses the NCAA Tournament (albeit probably small at this point) than there is LSU hosts a regional.

Some of yall should learn to read and take questions how they’re meant. I’m ecstatic that LSU has put themselves into a position for postseason play. This wasn’t a sunshine pumping or delusional question. It was simply a question for discussion.

I don’t think we will get into a host spot either but I feel it is certainly possible if all the cards fall right.
