RPI Watch

What about LSU? Are they really a win away from a national seed?

I think a win over Florida nets LSU a national seed. They would likely be Top 8 in RPI ... have the #2 conference record in the SEC ... won 2/3 from Ole Miss (one of the competitors for a national seed) ... and would only be the second national seed from the #1 RPI Conference.

Yes, LSU has some warts on their resume. Particularly NC RPI and NC SOS, as well as record vs. RPI Top 25 (would be 6-9 w/ win over Florida) ... (LSU's record vs. RPI Top 50 would be 14-11). But so do the other contenders. For example, Rice is 3-6 vs. RPI Top 25 and 9-11 vs. RPI Top 50.

Following up, if they lose, I am guessing they host, possibly lined up with us. Since they are so hot, not my first choice.

If they lose they ain't so hot. Cajuns have the longest win streak in the country after todays defeat of UT-A. Granted they have been hammering people, but so far Florida has the answer.

LSU is a definite host.
