In my opinion, LSU is IN currently. A lot can happen in these other tournaments that can bump LSU out though, if they don't take care of business.


LSU won't get in with a loss today.

Even with a win I think we are on the outside looking in.

What I meant when I said LSU was currently in, was that before the tournament started they were in.

What makes you think they are automatically out with a loss today though? And what makes you think even with a win they aren't in?

Historical treatment of a .500 SEC team with a poor RPI, poor OOC SOS. With a loss, that puts LSU "below .500" in the SEC which is really the only thing it has going for it on its resume.

See above. A win against MSU doesn't do enough, IMO.

Appreciate the effort that went into this post/thread. This is what makes the Rant worth it. Once you filter through the bullshite, posts like this rise to the top.

Glad to do it. I love baseball season. Not going to lie, keeping up with it knowing LSU would have a tough time making it was not something I was looking forward to. Glad I will be able to stay totally locked in now. Can't wait for baseball all day tomorrow again.

South Alabama snuck into the top 50. With the win tonight LSU is 14-15 against Group 1 teams.

Only 13 other teams have more.

That could be a good and a bad thing. Although I think the Sunbelt will be a 2 bid league. We just as well route for South Alabama along with Coastal to be those two.

What’s the RPI up to now? Probably like 40-41 right?

Just made some updates. There are a few more conference tournaments we need to pay attention to. I had some as one bid leagues, when they shouldn't have been. Some conferences such as Southland, Ohio Valley, Colonial could have a possible team as an at large, even if they do not win their conference tourney.

Now the one bid conferences listed should truly be one bids, meaning no matter who wins the conference tourney no other conference team will get in.

Honestly, it would be best if the season ended today. This team doesn't have the strength to contend in the postseason this year. I know that sounds rough and no disrespect to the players but this abysmal season needs to conclude. Why prolong the inevitable ?


You seem like you would have been the kid to quit the game, pick up your ball and go home if you started losing. What a pitiful way to go through life.

Up to 40 this morning. With Missouri and Kentucky losing that almost guarantees us a spot now.

I don't think I would say guarantee just yet, but it sure helps. I would agree that LSU played themselves in IF nearly every other conference tourney holds serve. However, if we see 5-6 bid stealers throughout the week it may leave no room for LSU even after last nights win.

LSU fans can be so shortsighted. Some of the same ones claiming we are in with a single win are going to melt if we lose the next two.

I feel much better about our situation after last night. Win one more game this week and I'd say we have a bid locked up.
