Basketball Prediction NCAA, NIT or home?

Home is where the heart is

whatever it is make sure to keep your 2 seven footers on the bench

NCAA or busts. But we will make it into the PROMISE LAND!

As of TODAY this looks like an NIT team to me. However, there is still plenty of time and opportunity for that to change as LSU has yet to get into the heart of their schedule.

I just don't see a team that does enough of the little things consistently well for them to have a ton of consistency in SEC play. LSU certainly has as much talent (if not more) than anyone in the SEC not named UK or UF. Yet, it seems that in each game thus far (except UMass) LSU has failed to execute in some aspect that keeps their opponent (regardless of how good they are) in the game. One night it's turnovers, the next poor outside shooting, effort on the glass, effort/execution on the defensive side of the ball, poor situation awareness (like attacking the basket for a tough layup with 28 seconds on the shot clock and less than 2:00 minutes on the game when up 8-10 points) etc.

From what I've seen thus far I'll say this is a solid NIT team. They will really need to step it up in conference play if an NCAA bid is in the future.

The SEC being weak is a mixed blessing. Could translate to more wins but also to less teams garnering an NCAA invite.

sec champs. so yes, they will be in the ncaa tournament.

I would like to say NCAA, but I'm not sure that the SEC is strong enough that we can survive 5 or 6 conference losses and get in, we can't lose close games if we want to make it to the dance

I'm honestly shocked at the negativity regarding the team right now. We are sitting pretty right now if we can wether the timmy q injury
