But insinuating that LSU was falling from the previous poll 2 to 9 or lower after a conference road win is silly.

What are you talking about? Last week LSU was #1 in the D1 poll and will likely be #1 again tomorrow when they release the poll. I’m not sure where you are pulling dropping from 2 to 9 in whatever imaginary poll you are talking about.

They also have Aggy first four in.
It's either "first four out" or "last four in."

"First four in" ain't a thing...

Isn't the Automatic Bid for the SEC the SEC Tournament Champion, rather than the SEC Regular Season Champion? I'm asking because I just watched the D1 Baseball video in the above link and they have Texas bolded as the auto bid from the SEC. I thought that is what is meant when they say a team that is not on the radar can "steal a bid." Thanks!

Anyone who listened to artigues interview on d1 last week would come away thinking theyll use rpi as one metric, but they are using other things and eye test. He very much was in favor of the best teams being rewarded. I dont think lsu’s rpi will hurt them much at all. I think if it was getting set today, the committee would seed us about 4

In last week’s D1 tournament projections they had LSU as the 2

I think that’s what he’s saying….”how do you drop LSU from 2 to 7 after a road series win in your own projections?”

Simply put, they dont spend alot of time on their projections. 1 hour for the entire field isnt very long compared to the committee meeting for hours and days

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.

It’s official. Hunt Palmer has lost control of the Tiger rant

Correct, anywhere 4-6 is realistic.

For anyone thinking LSU needs to win a game Friday. That is a slippery slope, what if everyone around them wins? Do they now have to win another game?

The bottom line is that Oregon and Oregon St will not both get one. Florida St would need to win their tournament to be considered. There’s not really a log jam after that in my opinion.

For him to say he tries to avoid click bait and follow it up with but I’m going to talk about it all on my show tomorrow is rich. It was all to get clicks.

Such a weird, weird stance. I don’t get paid for Twitter clicks. Obviously I can discuss more deeply on a two hour radio show than a message board post or a tweet. That’s pretty obvious. And it’s my main platform. I’m just here to discuss like everyone else.

What do I have to gain from a tweet 40 people reply to?

D1 tends to overreact and I think there may be some merit to the thought that some of their content is intended to drive engagement rather than reflecting what they actually believe will happen. They probably weren’t in position for the #2 seed before this weekend and I doubt they are as low as #7 now. It’s more likely the went from #3 or #4 to #4-#6. UNC and Vandy did make a case to pass LSU.

Dont even bother. They cant understand the simple point youve made from the beginning on this.

Its people who fail at reading comprehension and thinking critically

RPI is such a terrible formula. I thought they've been trying to move away from the RPI rankings the past few years? Or was that just basketball?

LSU is 4th in ELO rankings. Were 1st in the polls heading into the weekend. And finished T3 in the SEC.

Lol you don’t have to listen to his show because he’s already explained it on here and on Twitter. You just refuse to listen and want to be pissed off about something instead.

Hunt doesn’t know shite, go do a deeper dive into Oregon States stats. No fricking way they are a national seed.
