LSU baseball exited the SEC baseball tournament with a semifinal loss to Ole Miss on Saturday afternoon. The Tigers’ pitching continued to roll, but the lineup was dormant. LSU was shut out and limited to two hits. LSU’s offense had been prone to going quiet at times, but not to that level.
Following the loss, LSU still feels good about its chances of earning a top-eight seed in the NCAA Tournament. But the Tigers’ RPI took a hit. LSU now ranks 12th in the RPI, tumbling three spots from where it entered the day. Meanwhile, Ole Miss jumped six spots, from No. 16 to No. 10.
LSU fans shouldn’t be concerned. RPI is meaningful, but it isn’t everything. According to D1Baseball, LSU is projected to be the No. 5 national seed.
With conference tournaments wrapping up on Sunday, LSU will have to wait to see the bracket. The NCAA will reveal the field of 64 around 11 a.m. CT on Monday.
