I don’t get it. LSU is consensus the #1 team in country.

So why are we talking about or listening to jabber that LSU is not getting a top 8 seed?

If we win 1 or 2 games in the SEC tourney… or win the whole damn thing. Why wouldn’t we be the #1 overall seed?

I don’t listen to anybody.

I watch the games and read this board. And there is talk about being an 8 seed.

That’s my point. Why are we not the overall 1 seed?

How is the #1 team in every poll not the overall 1 seed?

What are we talking about??

Even if we get bounced after 1 game in the SEC tourney, how are we still not top 3??

We’re probably sitting in the 7 slot right now and probably can’t do much to move down, but a win over Auburn in the SECT would possibly help us move up.

Because media based poll criteria is not the same as the NCAA committee criteria. I hope this helps.

Our RPI is not in the top 8, but we will get a top 8 seed easily.

Because the organization that has us ranked #1 isn’t the same people that determine seeding.

LSU is #7 in the KPI and #8 in the RPI. If they out perform Georgia and Auburn in Hoover they could move up to around #5 National seed. Right now I’ve seen 2 projections with them at #7.

You throw out RPI when discussing a team that went 19-11 in the SEC and won seven series. The RPI can be manipulated by factors that don't result in playing a more challenging schedule.

I'm going to chuckle when LSU is the third or fourth overall seed.

as baseball has become more competitive, they have taken to the NCAA basketball model when selecting the field. It is a lot tougher to determine who the best teams are than it used to be. RPI, SOS, and even NET now.
