They still prob have to win out just for a shot at a 2 seed. They need a signature win over UT and/or UK.

I'm thinking if they go 7-1 down the stretch (which would mean wins over one or both of UK and UT) and win at least two games in the SEC tournament, they'd have a really good shot at a 2 seed. The other scenario is to go 6-2 to finish the regular season, with a win over UK or UT, and win the conference tourney.

It wouldn't be easy, but frankly this team could easily be 10-0 in league right now, and they aren't shooting well, yet. I'm thinking if they can get hot from the outside, and keep up the work on the glass, this team could really take off.

UK and UT are already at their peak, in my opinion. We know what they are. Kentucky is always young, but Calipari's teams always seem to top out by this point. He's an average coach with a boat load of talent. LSU is a sleeping giant, even with their gaudy record. There is so much more potential to reach.
