LSU is presently rated 10th in NET. They lost their last game at home to Ole Miss to fall to 27-4. Flaujae is injured and sitting out the SEC tournament so another loss is likely before Selection Day. They may fall to a three seed. They may not.

I went with TCU and the ACC Tournament champs if it isn't Notre Dame (with NC State being the likeliest non-ND ACC tourney champs). This is assuming that LSU does not make it to at least the SEC Tourney finals (if they do so by going through Texas, then I'd have to go with LSU in one of those spots).

Is K State even in consideration? They hung tough for a while after Lee went out with her latest injury, but then they faded fairly significantly. I just don't see it with them. Not sure if they're even a #3 seed.

Agreed . Beating Texas will save LSU. That’s a tall order without Flauejae. Maybe the committee will take her TEMPORARY
absence into consideration even if they lose a close one. LSU would be a dangerous 3 seed if she returns healthy.

NC state has a lot of losses for a two seed but they played a tough early season
And seem to be hitting their stride like last year. Pulling for them but not sure the committee will jump them up the NET that far

TCU has a lot going for them and seem like they should have a two seed wrapped up barring a major upset.

NET number 9 above LSU

If they can win the Big 12 tourney . . .

I REALLY don't understand how NET works.

Last good win was TCU on 2/5. Got POUNDED by Oklahoma St. right after that, have lost 3 of 4 down the stretch, all 3 losses by double digits to West Virginia, Baylor and Iowa St. Only 3 wins since TCU were against Cincinnati, UCF and Kansas.

Maybe overall body of work is nice, but last month that's a team that is cooked.

If NC State reaches ACC finals I think they’re safely on the 2 line. TCU needs to win to sneak in. I think LSU is still a strong 2 contender. Question is will the committee forgive their Alabama/likely SECT loss due to Flaujae being out? It’s always a wild card how they handle these types of situations. LSU has a good shot to upset Texas though IMO. The Horns are good but I’d probably pick LSU to pull the upset if they play in the semis.

Me either. Nor do I understand why the NCAA even lists it as a criterion when the committee apparently ignores it (for good reason).

Edit: my votes are for TCU and NCState. As others have said, that could change with the conference tourneys.
