LSU has a couple of good wins on the road at West Virginia and Ole Miss, but also some bad losses to Missouri, Mississippi State and Auburn. They completed the season sweep of Florida, but still have a few tough games left.

Georgia needed overtime, but won at Alabama to stop a two-game skid of bad losses. They still have to go to Ole Miss and host Kentucky.

The Aggies extended their win streak to three with a victory at South Carolina. They still do not have a top 50 RPI win, and will either need to win at Arkansas next or hope LSU moves up to fix that before the conference tournament.

I agree about the focus on quality wins, but I find it kind of funny experts talking about hopefully a team cracks the top 50 so they count as a quality win for the other team's resume.
So at the end of the year a win over team number 51 or 54 in the RPI is nothing, but boy beating team number 50, separated by hundredths of an RPI point is a big win!

I would call is "in for now" as opposed to on the fence.
We "should" lose to ole miss and UK. We "should" beat AU and Mizz. It's perfectly reasonable to suggest we'll go 1-1 in the SECT.
That would put us at 20 wins and likely a top 30 RPI. Seems that would put us in.
