Well, very few teams are actually a lock right now, but your point isn’t wrong. Really can’t afford to lose game like this anymore. We have used up the good will we had for sure.

Does this team have any offensive plays or run plays? Seems like the ball handler has to create his own shot every time

The only offense LSU has Is in the transition when they get Turnovers.

and? We still beat two good basketball teams when we were fully healthy.

we are 4-4 in quad 1 that means something to the committee.

we are in good shape but as others have said more losses like this and we will be left out.

You are living in a fairy tale if you think this team is good enough right now to get past the round of 36. Same ol problems; no ball movement, no fire, transition defense sucks, not enough second chances and we turn the ball over way way too much. We are running with a 7-8 man rotation like last year with less talent, and it's not going to be enough to compete in the dance.


It’s about time someone jumps on board. No one hates Will Wade, he just can’t coach.

Going to need 2 wins in Nashville, and the way they've seemingly collapsed, that seems dubious

We are currently playing like a 8 /9 or 7/10 seed which means even if we some how pull off a win in opening day we will get bounced in the 2nd round by a 1 or 2 seed. These are the facts of the case and they are indisputable.

Well these aren’t facts, therefore they are disputable. But I do agree we are headed for a 9-11 seed if we don’t put some wins together. And playing a 1-2 seed isn’t ideal in the round of 32.

It's a line from the movie "A few good men".
But the fact is we are playing like absolute dog shat right now.

Current NCAA team cutoff in NET rankings is at 48/49. Please tell me how they are going to drop 30 spots in the next month?

Their entire remaining schedule is against Q1/2 opponents except for UGA & Missouri.

The only 2 games left that could hurt them are the UGA and Missouri ones.

lol "general public" are the ones panicking right now saying they aren't a lock for the tourney. Yes, they've lost 5 of their last 6, but what if they win 3 of their next 4? What if they win 5 in a row going into the game at UK?

Idiots that post shite like the OP, have no idea what you're talking about, which is why their post is beyond retarded, and even more retard, is all of the dumbasses upvoting it.

Not a lock to make the tourney while we sit at a NET rating of 15
we'd literally have to lose almost every game to not make the tourney. Ole Piss had a stretch where they made 14/16 shots, and they are playing with confidence right now. Sometimes in basketball you run across a team that can't miss. We still should have won the game despite that. We could play them in 2 weeks and beat the shite out of them while they shoot 30% from the field for the game instead of 52%. Yes we are playing bad right now, but we are no where near missing the tourney, dumbasses.

They had a great non-conference schedule. You are always wrong


Not great but it wasn’t weak either. It’s ranked top 50 in the country.

I still think they will make the tourney but I also don’t think they will continue on the skid they are currently on. If they continue playing like they are now they will not make the tourney.
