On LSU not in NIT Jeff Duncan @JeffDuncanTP (Times Picayune) Wow. That's pretty surprising. Other Louisiana teams -Southern got invited to NCAAT -Northwestern State got inviteed to NCAAT....LSU beat them 102-95 -Louisiana Tech got invited to NIT
i wonder how much of this has to do with attendance? that seems unlikely if LSU wasn't going to host an NIT game but could have been a factor.
I hope the NIT doesn't come calling for a preseason tournament next year. If so, we need to promptly tell them where to stick it.
One thing I forgot to mention, LSU looked pretty hesitant, like we didn't have anybody to turn on attack-mode. Looked like they were playing within a system and not quite comfortable with it. Hopefully next season things will be more familiar and go more smoothly. Hopeful. Disappointed we didn't make NIT, but not overly surprised. Not a lot of respect for SEC this year, maybe rightfully so.
