Who do we need to be pulling for or against in the three games prior to ours?

Root for all 3 upsets. Biggest one to root for is obviously Auburn beating Vandy. Double elimination now so no big deal. I’m excited for the State matchup tomorrow.

Not sure outside the SEC but we want A&M to lose as soon as possible.

A&M really needs to lose, they’re the reason we were knocked down from a host to a 2 seed before tonight

If LSU and A&M are anywhere close to each other the committee should defer to H2H

Doesn't really matter. Win and we host a regional. Lose and it might be difficult if the RPI doesn't dip below 20.

This. Aside from beating State, this is the biggest thing for helping LSU lock up hosting the regional.

What we really need is Miami and NC State to lose. That will help us more than A&M losing

Here are some games that could help LSU:
UGA over Texas A&M - LSU or A&M will host. I believe if they both win, then both will host, but if LSU loses and A&M beats UGA, they are clearly ahead of LSU and the committee has shown reluctance in awarding more than 5 host sites to one conference unless they are simply that dominant.
Auburn over Vandy - LSU did not play Vandy, so an AU win does more for LSU's SOS and RPI. It also hangs an L on the best team in the tourney.
UCSB, NC State and Miami are the teams other than A&M that LSU could bump for that host site, but they aren't playing tomorrow. Stanford is an outside possibility as well, but I think they get one regardless of what happens this week.
The rest are mostly RPI boost games tomorrow, either due to LSU having played them or teams that are currently ahead of them in RPI:
Virginia over UNC
Kansas over West VA
La Tech over Marshall
SLU over SFA
NLU over Central Arkansas
McNeese over Incarnate Word
ULL over Georgia Southern
ULM over Texas St
