re: LSU 64 @ South Carolina 46 - Recap

That would be cool but since the NCAA tournament is out of the question without winning the SEC tournament LSU's best shot will be if they get the 6 seed. That way they avoid Florida until the finals. That gives someone else a chance to upset them. They would start off with the 11/14 winner and then get the 3 seed.. then 2 seed.

I'm of the mindset that the less chances to lose, the better chance we have of making it. I'd be happy with 6th, but I think having the first two rounds off would be very good for us. I'd rather play Florida after just playing 1 game than after playing 3. It's a long tournament and LSU isn't deep. I think we would have to try a 40 min of hell type think against Florida, but I'd rather do it the 2nd game of the tournament rather than the 4th.

Either way, the chances are small. I'd rather be able to say we were 4th in the SEC than 6th no matter what.
