UK will win the SEC and earn a national seed. If RPI is any indication, only UF has a shot at an additional national seed.


This is the answer. So basically LSU would have to finish 2nd in the overall conference standings, overtaking Florida. Unless somehow the SEC ends up getting 3 national seeds, which I really don't see happening. Short answer, finish #2 in the conference.

Saw on twitter last night that Cole McKay is going to Howard College in TX. Decent JUCO program.

6-3 in the final 9 SEC games (this record has to get them to #2 in SEC)
Get to the tourney champ game

Auburn is going to be the real problem. They still have Bama on the schedule. That's 3 wins for them. They'll be 17-7 going into the final two weekends. Only need to go 3-3 in their final two series to get to 20 wins.

Even if LSU wins 2/3 against Auburn, they may not be able to catch them. Would LSU get a national seed over a team that finished with a better conference record?

It's pretty simple.

LSU must

a) win 20 games in conference
b) finish first in the SEC West

If they accomplish this they'll get a national seed on RPI alone

7-2 over the next 9 is a pretty tall order. not impossible but would have to sweep one series. hopefully this weekend.

20 wins and we have a very real shot. 20 wins a couple wins in the SEC tourny and its likely.

Need to sweep this weekend. USCe is on their heels, we have them at home, and the last 2 series will be much harder.

I say that with confidence.

19-11 would certainty still put them right there but that would mean both Auburn and Miss St. go 5-4 over these next three weeks and both loss series to LSU.

Ding Ding as bad as this team has played at times this year they are in control of their own destiny. That's if they want it.

LSU winning these last three series would get them a regional host... they would have to play deep into sec tourney to get a seed.

The midweek losses are going to hurt us, I'm afraid.
