re: LSU baseball gets breakthrough, finally wins SEC series

They basically have to sweep everyone else, which is a tall order in the SEC

Sweep Auburn
2/3 Ole Miss
2/3 Alabama
1/3 A&M

That gets LSU to 13-17. 13-17 in the SEC would get an NCAAT bid. If you think LSU's chances are better against A&M, switch them and Alabama. But the above is essentially what LSU needs to do to get into the NCAAT. I'm not overly confident they will or can do that, but that is their current path.

There have been a few teams in the SEC (most recently Alabama in 2021) get in with just 12 SEC wins, but I def wouldn't feel great about LSU's chances finishing at 12-18.
