I think LSU got royally screwed, in that even with a subpar season by LSU standards they still had better credentials than a bunch of teams. But when you down to it LSU did it to themselves. We need to realize these ppl are all jealous of LSU and its history so any chance they get to stick it to the Tigers they will. LSU let the deciding factors fall into the hands of others instead of taking care of business and not giving them a choice. I am disappointed but it is what it is.

that doesn't mean they have to take us. i just don't like people on here saying they should've taken us because we are "LSU".

that is a dumb argument.

To all you goons who keep saying LSU didn't deserve to get in, then how can you explain teams doing less than LSU getting in? Best program in NCAA over the past 20 years and you mean to tell us that St. Johns gets in over LSU? Yall have yalls head in the sand about as deep as that fhaggot selection com.

the NCAA selected oklahoma state last year, despite them not making the big 12 tourney. they also selected mississippi state in 2006 despite them not making the SEC tourney


3 SEC teams have made the tournament without qualifying for the SEC tournament.

NOBODY is saying that. we're saying compared to a couple of teams that did get in, our RESUME says we should have gotten in

baylor definitely EARNED their way in, 29-26 record, sub .500 conference record, and lower RPI than LSU

you clearly have no clue what youre talking about

Forget about everyone else ... can you honestly say that LSU played well enough this year to earn a trip to the tournament? If you can honestly say that LSU's performance on the field was worthy of a tournament slot, then I guess you've earned the right to continue bitching.

Take the names of the schools, conferences and their geographic regions away from Baylor, SJU, KSU, OSU, LSU and Dallas Baptist and something tells me the results would be different than what occurred today.

I thought 9th place in a conference meant you were at home...

Oh, wait...

You find one stupid person and base your entire defense on that. That makes you equally retarded.

The majority of fans, and even rantards, are saying compared to the field LSU should have been in. All else equal LSU > St. Johns. If you do not believe that then please...make us all happy.

So you're saying that maybe next year LSU is on the cusp again and you'll have a different opinion?

GTFO.

No reason to believe this could not have been LSU this year. Baseball is about streaks/confidence and LSU ended the year on a roll.
