D1 has LSU at 7 per your link. It’s closer than many of you want to accept.


agree with this.....LSU can put it to rest with a win Friday night...but don't let Auburn beat us...could get dicey...or Ga and/or Vandy advancing. Still work to do.

You want to bet? LOL, but winning is always good. The 3rd best SEC team isn’t getting left out of a top 8.

I’m going to talk about this tomorrow, but I’ll post this here to try to clear things up.

I’m confident LSU is getting a national seed. I firmly believe the body of work is good enough.

I simply left the door cracked for Oregon, Auburn and Oregon State to get in over an LSU team that loses Friday.

In no way did I ever say LSU was out or not a top 8. I just said I didn’t think it was a lock.

Somehow my tweet that suggested LSU was in good shape got turned into “Hunt says LSU isn’t a top 8”. I can’t really control that.

I really hope y’all don’t think I’m farming for twitter clicks. I take some pride in resisting that type of approach to my show and content.

LSU has some RPI, SOS and non-con SOS issues that could be an issue if like 8 things don’t go their way the next 7 days.

In the end, I don’t expect it to be an issue. I think the road to Omaha goes through The Box.

LSU is going to win the SEC Tournament so all of this talk is a waste of time

My thought process is that they only allow 4 SEC Teams in top 8...if so, Texas and Arky a lock, you have Vandy and LSU tied for 3rd....what if Vandy advances far, we lose, and Ga wins the trny?

I mean this is all opinion based of course, but they let 5 be national seeds just last year. And just judging by the strength of teams at the top the SEC appears to be better this year than last. Unless they make a correction to how they want to select it appears the SEC gets 5 again.

Why 4? The SEC had 5 national seeds last season.

Someone on this board just made a thread a day or two about about disregarding the upcoming articles about LSU not getting a national seed just for clicks and create drama. Well here it is lol

Conference record and he is projecting. It isn’t all RPI. When those losses happened and where matter. He probably has TAMU in the field.

No credibility. Atm is only in if they win the conference tourney. No other scenario puts them in.
