If the win over Florida gives LSU enough of a bump tomorrow, they could be in the top 8 in RPI and VERY deserving of a National Seed.
I just don't have trust in the powers that be, even if our resume stacks up nicely.

With a win sun vs floridA, I would be shocked if LSU does not get a national seed. We would be top 8 in RPI and every major poll, strong finish, tournament champs, Best conference which deserves 2 natty seeds to begin with...the only thing that was holding us back was RPI and we've now solved that problem. Not to mention passed all the other NS contenders in virtually every metric. (OM, Rice, etc)
If LSU wins Sunday, we're getting a national seed.

So you were around for 2011 too. 
I was talking with Godfather1 about this earlier this week and told him that my prediction is that LSU wins the tourney, gets a Regional host, gets paired with ULL and they give ULL a shitty draw with a really strong #2 seed. ULL loses and the Super comes to the Box.
BUT, that said, they are on crack if they don't award 2 top 8 seeds to the SEC. If LSU beats Florida tomorrow, who is more deserving of that second national seed? It also doesn't hurt LSU's chances that we will all see LSU and Florida playing as the top 2 SEC teams tomorrow. It would be tough to see LSU beat the consensus lock from the SEC and then not give them that second bid.

Agreed. Don't think the committee will allow supers 50 miles apart, especially if 1 team (us) is on the bubble. I'll be happy with a regional at this point.
