Only when they buy a ticket.

Absolutely no way this year based on RPI and season results.

LSU does not deserve to be in the NCAA tournament. Plain and simple.



Well, since you don't get to vote on who get's in, you honestly can't say that. What makes a team deserving?

1) Win our next four games, losing in the conference tournament final

OR

2) Win the SEC Tournament, regardless of how we finish the regular season


The second is obviously the better option, as it guarantees us a spot in the Thursday/Friday Round of 64. Option #1 could still have us in Dayton.

I think if we win out and Vandy upsets A&M (doubtful), I think we have a strong case for the play-in game considering we would finish T-1st in the SEC. I still think winning the SEC tournament is our best chance though. Some teams just show up and don't give a frick (us last year) and others have things to prove like Auburn did last year. This is the first SEC tournament in a while that is pretty wide open. The 1 seed has been dominant compared to everyone else in years past, this year not so much.

I'm really kind of over watching JJ's dumbfounded look, hands on top of his head, eyes glazed over, look on his face every game on national tv

This bothers me too.

I don't mind a calm, in-control coach. I actually prefer that to the wild-eyed coach jumping around like a madman.

But damn, Jones looks asleep. No emotion, no enthusiasm, no getting on his players, nothing. Just nothing but a blank stare most of the time.

Couple that with poor in-game coaching and it makes me wonder if the guy is properly engaged in the ballgames.

Patient? I've been patient for 29 games.

What makes you think that right now, after all the stuff that's occurred all year, we'll flip a switch and win a bunch of games in a row???

Especially Kentucky, at their place, last game of the year, with possibly the SEC championship on the line for them, and revenge on their side. You think we can pull that off??? I see us getting blown out by the Cats.

Call me crazy, but I think there's a 0% chance LSU is in a play-in game if they are selected as an at-large. Based on the seeding last year, I think the selection committee cares more about how high a team can climb vs how low a team can fall.

Thank you. It's to the point where the Florida game wasn't enjoyable even though we out talented them for a win.
