I think if A&M splits the final four games going and stays in the Top 40 RPI wise, we need to win at least 1 game in the SEC tourney to feel comfortable. If we go 3-1 w/ a loss to Ark, I think we are good to go even if we lose our first game in the SEC tournament. That would give us 22 wins, and I have a hard time seeing us get left out in that scenario. Just my 2 cents


A&M is in strange spot. There's nothing bad that stands out on their tournament resume. However, there's nothing really "good" on there either. A&M hasn't shown that they can beat anyone who's worth a damn this year other than LSU (and that's only if you consider LSU to be worth a damn). Outside of LSU, they've lost to every potential tournament team they've played (Dayton, Baylor, UK, Ole Miss, UGA) Arkansas is really their last shot to put a great win on the resume. If they lose that game I think they're far from a lock

When it comes to LSU vs. A&M, you are going on consistency versus potential. A&M has been a lot more consistent and they do not really play up or down to their competition. Hence no great wins, no terrible losses.

LSU on the other hand, could beat anyone, but can also lose to teams with an RPI of 200.
