If LSU got a home NIT game, would anybody attend?

or would the committee know nobody would go so, if selected, LSU would be shipped to some place?

I'd imagine a pretty decent crowd for an NIT game. I know I'd be in attendance. Im sure about 8k-9k would make it.

Sure. I'm actually going to the Bama game (bought tickets from LSU for it).

This team is fun to watch.

LSU will probably not even bid for homecourt like last year. The Women's 1st and 2nd round happen to fall around the same time.

It sold out in 02 when we played ball state. Those guys couldn't miss from 3. There was a very long line to get tickets to the game. Great atmosphere, a shame we lost that game

The NIT has turned into a better tourney, the last few years (media coverage is about the same though). It's not nearly as easy to get in anymore for an at-large. With that in mind, I think you'd see about as many as there were for the State game.

I would attend my first game if they did and I'm not ruling them out of the NCAA if they make a run in the SEC tourney all the way.

If we finish out 4-2 and win a few games in the SEC Tournament we should be an at large sitting at 20+ wins..gonna need to beat either Ole Miss or Missouri can't afford to lose to both unless we make it to the Championship game.

I would definately go! LSU sold 9,500 tickets for the Miss. State game. I expect an even bigger crowd this Saturday for the Bama game.

LSU fans are warming up to this team and I think they would support an NIT game at home!
