1 seed

If we don’t lose another game before th NCAA tourney there is an outside shot I’d say

If we win out, we get a #1 seed. No question in my mind.

LSU would likely have to win out and make it to the SECT championship game. LSU only negatives that they don't have a great non-conf. win and the predictive metrics (kenpom, BPI, etc) don't see LSU as an "elite" team right now. That's because of the weeks of close games...regardless of opponent.

The CURRENT "likely" #1 seeds: Duke, UVA, Gonzaga, Tenn.

Teams right behind them: Mich, Mich. St., Kentucky, UNC, Houston, Purdue, Kansas, Nevada.

A win over Tenn. by LSU could knock Tenn. off the #1 line. That would probably bump Kentucky up. Then the comittee would be faced with the fact that if both UK and LSU continue to win, LSU would have won head to head AND have the better overall resume (a little secret no one talks about)

Mich and Mich St. still have to play each other twice. UNC is in line to jump to a #1, but they still have Duke twice AND they face the same issue as LSU. Other than Gonzaga, they lost all of their "big" non-conf. games.

Nevada and Houston have no room for error simply due to playing in weak conferences.

Kansas has 6 losses, but they've played the toughest schedule in the nation. The huge knock on them is that they can't win on the road. They play TTU and KSU this week. Win both and they are in the conversation for a #1 seed again. Lose one, and they are probably out.

This week is HUGE for LSU. Despite their record, the predictive metrics still really like Florida. That would be a solid win. But if LSU can follow that with a victory over Tenn, then they place themselves at the top of the SEC and NO ONE will be able to say it's still just a two horse race between UK and Tenn.

Win out, then a #1 seed. Regular season, SEC tourney champs, 30-4 record. No way the Tigers WOULDN'T be a #1 with such a resume, considering it would require beating Tenn and most likely Tenn/KY a second time in the tourney.
