Something bfniii doesn't mention, and it's not at all reflected in the RPI, is that we were missing key players for most of our non-conference losses (all but Wake), as you mentioned. The committee will absolutely take that into consideration, especially if we have a strong showing in the SEC at full strength.
Now, would we be in the tournament right now? No. Is there a lot of work left to get there? Yes, but we don't have to win every game by 20 just to get in. Tomorrow's game will be a key step.

You starting the in-game thread??
Posted on 1/22/16 at 9:52 pm to LSUButt
I don't see why not, since I'll be watching the game on TV anyway. I live too far away to go to most of these, except USCe.

Thanks for doing the previews LSUButt.
People can still disagree with OP about certain topics but some people take it overboard and only post negativity.

I agree with you. It is a message board and people are freely allowed to post opinions. Obviously, opinions will be varied. But in literally EVERY basketball thread, he finds a way to show up and turn it into nothing but negatives. It gets very old.

Well one of the problems that gets overlooked is that we have a whole lot of people who don't normally watch LSU basketball or basketball in general who comment a lot of negativity. The Ben Simmons effect lol

bfniii) you're a complete douche! Stop bashing the program.

Exactly, I know I have given people hell (you included LSU1SLU) in the past for being critical on things that were valid points but the fact that admins allow this guy to openly bash the program and THE PLAYERS (go look at his post history) just shows how spineless the admins are when it comes to basketball around here.
South quit doing previews because of the negativity on this site about basketball, I'm afraid we are headed down the same path with LSUButt if they allow people like bfnwhatshisnuttsiii to continue bashing LSUButt, the program and THE PLAYERS.
If the admins don't have the balls to put a stop to bfnwhatshisnuttsiii then people like LSUButt and South won't do previews anymore. I bet it takes hours for Butt and South to put those previews together. Who else would want to invest that time and be shite on like South and Butt have been?
The bullshite thing is that TigerDroppings makes money on these previews because there are people who come to this site to read a preview on the game when they could easily go somewhere else like the Advocate. (FYI - Randy Rosetta is great when it comes to basketball.) So in a way LSUButt and South make money for this website by the clicks that they generate and all they get in return is shite from piece of shite posters like bfnwhatshisnuttsiii who bash the coach, program and THE PLAYERS. It would be an absolutely cowardly act if the admins of this site don't at the very least remove the negative posts by bfnwhathisnuttsiii for the sake of this thread. If he wants to make his own thread that is fine.

Yea I am sometimes negative, but I am not the Johnny Jones hater. I will get mad about certain situations, but I can't stand the posters who every post bash Johnny Jones and Les Miles.
There were seasons we never had previews so don't ruin it for others.

Why don't you just start your own preview thread.
Terrible poster makes terrible posts.

Could not have said it better. There are certainly frustrations with many people, including myself, but let's try to keep it out of here

This is a MUST win for LSU. Not so much record wise but for their momentum....With each loss the confidence will start to fade more and more... Johnny needs to be more RAH-RAH.. He shows ZERO passion and it shows with this team...

What happened to SoS? Just curious
I know he took a break after a few games into the season, but I'm not sure why. Possibly because of all the negativity. Butt has taken over the previews lately, and has done an excellent job.
I started doing previews and recaps because the basketball team was very under covered. There wasn't a big media presence and there wasn't enough content to keep people interested.
I was able to do a lot of writeups because I was very slow at work. I am currently working 50-60 hours a week with very little break time, leaving me with not nearly enough time to do recaps at the quality I felt was necessary.
I was very appreciative when Butt stepped in and kept everyone on here up to date on when LSU is playing.
It was in no way due to negativity... I've done previews for 5 or 6 years now I think, and that includes some years where LSU was awful. It's mostly due to my schedule being way too busy and there honestly being information out there on LSU if you want to find it.
I'll still be sitting in section 206 for all home games.

Sos!!!!! Great to see ya back!!!!!! you may be glad that butt took over but I am not. He gets to testy if you say anything negative about the team. Esp Simmons..

PPPJJJJJJJ!!!! Well I know you can't go more than a couple hours without saying something negative so for this I am sorry!

Its not Just me... Anything I have said is true... Just somethings he doesn't want to SEE............ He really goes off on others... Just watch today if you can... he WILL go off on somebody.............

SoS...nice to see you back.
I think my expectations were way too high for this club going into the season. Critical error I made was thinking Simmons was going to be a Pistol Pete type highlight reel every game. I had no idea the young man has a lot to work on and he's just not a scorer. His game obviously fits more to the NBA. LSU's inconsistency is brutal but it it what it is. I know CJJ is a good man, dedicated to LSU, great recruiter, etc. However, with a talent laden roster, the same problems still seem to be there. No real offensive sets or flow and atrocious post defense with players looking lost. To be honest, and this is not a flame, making the NIT is my expectation at this point. I'm searching for anything positive. Hope they go on a run and finish strong.

Would love to see them win at Coleman, but that place has been a house of horrors for LSU. Even their best teams haven't been able to win there for whatever reason.
LSU started out fine against A&M. Then A&M went to a zone and LSU was as lost as ever against it. Jones HAS to know that's coming again.
Simmons' numbers have been fine over the last 3 games, but he has seemed incredibly frustrated or just uninterested for long stretches of those games. LSU needs someone to provide energy today. Hell, I would even throw in a press here and there to pick up the pace of play
