I agree with Ben MacDonald
Who gives a crap how many conference wins you have. Are you one of the best 64 teams? Yes or No?
Everyone wants to be a beast...until its time to do what beasts do.

So what metric should we use?

He is saying that because LSU has 17 losses in conference play.

Technically it's not a metric. It's a coorelation between teams that make it.

He is definitely saying that for LSU's sake. So many holes in his comments

I mean, technically I agree, but there has to be some sort of criteria, or we get into "muh eye test" that's plagued college football. How many "super teams" on paper have we seen in pro sports fail and not make the playoffs? On paper, the Yankees should be the 1 or 2 seed every year. At some point wins and losses matter.

I would think LSU would have to sweep Ole Miss to make the tournament or at least make a run to the finals in Hoover. Ole Miss same thing they need to win the next 2 and get to the finals in Hoover

Without our conference schedule, we played a pathetic excuse for a schedule, so yes, conference wins should matter. We've got several bad losses.
I expect to be on the road for a regional because of that. Plus, the SEC overall hasn't looked as strong as we thought. Outside the top 4, it's pretty pedestrian for the SEC.

Then how do we judge teams at the end of the season? By height?

The pedestrian SEC has 7 teams in the top 25 just like the ACC.
Look at 6 thru 25 in the D1 rankings. All have between 32 and 39 wins and losses from 11-20. TN, Arkansas and A&M all top out at 42-10. There's not a dominant team this year and that makes it much more fun. Parity has hit college baseball, even in the mighty SEC. But don't let that fool you into thinking that it has lost it's grip on the dominance of the rest of college baseball. It hasn't.
