My guess is a win over Tennessee and LSU could lose to Arkansas and then the first game of the SECT and still get in.
Trivia question: In all 8 losses this season, LSU has been within X number of points with less than a minute to play in regulation.
2015 Martin mickey quarterman Hornsby Patterson gray 2006 Davis Thomas Mitchell d Mitchell t Lazare temple Similar in many ways I think. Youth, thin roster and depends on frontcourt. martin=Davis mickey=Thomas quarterman=temple for these 3, '15 is better. But '06 had tasmin. And that points to the glaring weakness of 2015 team-rebounding. This team could make a run because of inside out play and transition O, but giving up 2nd chance points will kill you against evenly matched teams.
Guard play guard play guard play. Teams that make runs in the tourney all have good/great guards and I'm not sure that we do. The Patterson kid is good, needs to get better quickly.
I agree. The 06 ff team might have been an anomaly with really only 1 1/2 guards (with temple being no threat to score in half court O). But this team has 4 guards and they are all pretty good on D.
