which would mean a 24-7 record before the SEC tourney


thats what ive been saying for weeks. i really think 24 regular season wins is what we need to get in, with at least 1 sec tourney win. hopefully we put together a much better schedule next year, although our team may not be as strong.

Here is my problem with RPI. LSU on the surface didn't schedule that badly. We play 4 legitimate teams (Xavier, Utah, A&M, and Wash St.) and then a bunch of cupcakes. That's not really any different than our usual schedule or most mid-level "major" schools.

But our cupcakes are really, really bad. So that destroys our RPI. Had we played a bunch of bad teams instead of awful teams our RPI would be pretty good. I don't really agree with that.

In defense of our RPI, we have only beaten the awful OOC teams and lost to all the really good teams. So we could be #25 or #75 and probably have the same record.
