frick, if they win one game this weekend against A&M their RPI will jump back up to the 34/35 area because A&M has the #1 RPI

I mean I also listed about 4 other reasons you could argue LSU is better in my original post. I’m not gonna keep listing them out for you. Regardless of LSU record they also haven’t lost a series at home to a powerhouse like Rice.

Welcome to the rant. Where weirdos get happy when their team loses.

Bottom line is this: The next two weeks will likely determine LSU's season. If they can take 2/3 vs. Alabama and A&M, they will have a decent shot of sneaking into a regional. Lose both series, and you can pretty much close the book on postseason play.
LSU will get in a regional at 13-17, regardless of how it happens over the next 3 weeks
Now the question is, can LSU go 6-4 over the next 3 SEC weekends?

If they take both the A&M and Bama series, they’ll be 11-16 at worse, with 2 series wins against top 15 RPI teams (one on the road) which would put their RPI up to near the mid 20s

You don’t have to keep listing them out for me, I read your original post. It was dumb. I told you why LSU’s win over ULL doesn’t matter and I told you why LSU’s OOC record doesn’t hold much weight.

With only 9 games to play in those 3 weeks, id say 6-4 is impossible
Posted on 4/29/24 at 1:42 pm to Alt26
I got you. In regards to the 34 at large teams, I’m assuming they take into account any head to head matchups and common opponents?

That, RPI, strength of record/schedule, and honestly with humans picking the 64 teams, bias is probably thrown into that as well.

I guess it is possible for us to win ONE versus the Aggies. But I do not think it is even possible for us to win 2 vs A&M.
IMO, we are more likely to end the regular season at 11-19 in the SEC.

they're good but not some unbeatable wagon.
I could see us winning a close one Friday night, Saturday being a toss-up, and getting 10RR'd Sunday. IE how the Florida and Vandy series played out.

Does anyone actually know what the least amount of SEC wins a team has had and made the tournament? Could have sworn I saw someone say we made it one year with 11 or 12 wins.

Not sure what you believe LSU's RPI is, but its 42 currently. They would not be in with RPI of 42 right now.
ETA: Let me clarify, 42 is not good enough when you get the auto boosts to the ranking just being in the SEC

Bama made it in 2021 at 12-17. They got sent to the Ruston regional where they went 1-2
In 2022 they went 12-17 again and were left out.

Now we are getting somewhere. Any idea what their overall record, strength of schedule, was like in comparison to us this year?
Disregard. I forgot google was a thing. Looking at 2021 their schedule doesn’t look too much different than ours except you could argue their OOC schedule was worse.

We can argue that the regionals are not the regionals without the LSU Tigers but I don’t think that is going to work.

They were 32-26 in 2021 when they got in. 31-27 in 2022.
So 32 seems to be the magic #
No clue on RPI or other mitigating factors.
14 SEC wins seems to be the mark we need to hit, and I am counting wins in Hoover as the committee weighs those equal to reg. season conf. wins.

True but if we go 6-3 down the stretch and win a game or 2 in Hoover we should in the low 30s I reckon

Is it possible? Sure. Is it likely? No. Only a run in the SECT would make that happen, it would probably take 3 or 4 wins which would put us in semis or the championship.
