Don't know why people seem so offended that we won't win the SECT... we weren't unless someone beat undefeated UK anyway so I don't see why it makes people mad

I do. I want all the fools that have been saying we're a lock no matter what we did today to come forward and say they were wrong.

ETA: I'm pretty sure drizz was one of the ones calling me out, and he's at least here, but still fighting the good fight.

I think we are still in.... A lock hardly.

If UCLA beats Arizona tonight that hurts. Also hope the committee hasn't fallen in love with Boise's resume like the media has. Colorado St could stand to lose too.

If LSU makes the NCAAT after losing today, will you then agree that everyone saying LSU was a LOCK prior to losing today was correct?

That is my question to you, sir.

We're still going to the tournament. It would take some crazy shite for us not to.

After the fact, perhaps. Unless you know of some sort of guarantee, there is no lock as of now. You guarantee a bid?

I have predicted for weeks that the SEC would frick us. Prepare for the insertion.

No, that's not what lock means. LSU needs some help to get in. Just because we get that help doesn't mean we were a lock.

I've said 12 all along. Should have had 12 weeks ago.

My post history suggests just that.

I offered wagers multiple times that LSU was a LOCK prior to today.

Maybe you should have manned up then.

They may still get a bid, but I wouldn't bet on it.

If the SEC gets only four teams in the dance, you'll understand my concern.

No. If LOCK was called and the worst case scenario happens - today - and LSU is still in, then it means LSU was a LOCK when called.

You're confusing this with a changing situation. Those that called LSU a LOCK included the scenario that LSU would lose today. If LSU makes the NCAAT with today's loss, then those parties were correct.
