Is there any scenario LSU does not get an at large bid at this point?

Losing 2 straight?
Seems they would still get in as a 3 somewhere based on how they finished.
What would put them in the last 4 out?

Nothing, we are in. Unless every single conference had a bid steal champion. We are In

They are in, even going 2 and out from here. Rest easy

Direct meteor impact.

We'll probably get stuck in Georgia's bracket. Watch.

They don’t put SEC teams in each other’s regionals.

Absolutely none
Posted on 5/22/24 at 11:32 pm to MikeEhrmantraut
I think we are in and likely as a 2 seed.
Posted on 5/22/24 at 11:43 pm to MikeEhrmantraut
After these 2 huge convincing wins, absolutely IN

2 losses doesn't matter. I mean the sec tourney can only have one winner so most teams come out of it with 1 or 2 losses.

No, beating Georgia and Kentucky nailed it.

I’ll ask the opposite, does winning the sect put us in the conversation to host?
41-20 overall
18 SEC wins
41-20 overall
18 SEC wins

We were 99% in before the UGA game. The two wins are more than enough. Yall can quit fretting.

No. Not hosting.

Mike it’s nap time. Then recess. Go enjoy it

Only possibility if every league has a team not going to the tourney win their league tournament, and even with that unlikely scenario probably still in

Not to mention eye test says they will be a force for 2 games. Hurd today will tell the tale of how far we can go.

I did a rough estimation of how many at-large bids there will be and what RPIs will probably be in the bubble range.
There are 30 AQs, with those there are 16 conferences that do not have a top 64 RPI team. That leaves 48 spots, 14 taken by an AQ team.
The Big West Conference has no tournament so their AQ is the top team in their league, that team, UC Santa Barbara, has an RPI of 10.
So if we assume that all the remaining 14 AQ teams have an RPI of 48 or better then anyone with an RPI 48 or above can be reasonably considered to have a shot at making a regional.
If the unthinkable happens and all 13 tournament AQs are outside of the top 48 that leaves 35 open spots. More likely, most of the 13 will end up being a top 48 ranking.
I would think that any team with a top 25 RPI is a lock, probably top 30 has a good shot but the politics of a committee selection create a bubble in this area and KPI will come into play as well and that does not follow lockstep with RPI.
Just my random thoughts on the subject
