The SEC rarely has been in such a precarious position as Selection Sunday nears. Only Florida, Tennessee and perhaps South Carolina currently resemble NCAA tournament teams, and each of those squads has noticeable flaws. LSU probably will finish with more than 20 victories, but much of its success has come against the country's weaker teams. Kentucky suddenly is struggling to stay in contention.

LSU [18-4 (6-1), RPI: 52, SOS: 113] The Tigers have separated themselves from the rest of the SEC West, and it's hard to imagine a division champion not making the 65-team field. But LSU might have to finish 10-6 in SEC play to feel confident about an at-large bid. The Tigers' best nonconference win came against RPI No. 91 Washington State, and nine of their 18 victories have come against foes ranked No. 200 or worse in the RPI ratings. Road victories at Ole Miss and Tennessee and a home win over South Carolina should help.

They completely contradict themselves:
(a) How is SC better off than LSU
(b) They say LSU doesn't resemble a tourney team, but then say we need to finish 10-6 to feel comfortable. So all we need to do is go 4-5 here on out and we are in? Yet, we don't resemble a tourney team?

The entire SEC breakdown was horrible. I could agree with most of it if it were written back in December, but LSU is in 1st place in the conference @ the mid way point. I don't see how we're last on the choices to make the dance.

We can't expect anything more if we can't beat Xavier, aTm, and get drubbed by Utah like we did. I don't blame them. Our ooc schedule is VERY weak and so our 18 wins are misleading. However our SEC record is impressive albeit against a weaker than usual league. We should make it to the tourney if we go at least 5-4 the rest of the way (which is what I think we'll do) and take at least one game in the SEC tourney.
