You got it?
I really hope we show up on Friday as I would like to put an end to this media obsession but I am not so sure that we can deliver.
The SEC tournament
Why you should care: Because we admit we can't stop watching this LSU horror flick
We're all tired of the tired LSU storyline. We all know the situation. Johnny Jones signed an elite recruiting class that featured Ben Simmons, a young man whom pro scouts anointed as the No. 1 pick in the 2016 NBA draft when he was 16 years old. Veterans returned, too. Craig Victor, a former top-100 recruit, transferred from Arizona. Partaaaayyyyyy in Baton Rouge!!! Nope. Just disappointment. If Simmons can't lead LSU to an SEC tournament title, he could become the first No. 1 pick to miss the NCAA tournament since Mychal Thompson failed to reach the NCAA tournament in 1978 -- only because Minnesota was banned from that year's postseason because of a scandal.
Yet, we're still fascinated by this nosedive. You don't have to be great. Good is more than sufficient in this season's field. And LSU couldn't achieve that in 2015-16. So now the Tigers and their future multimillionaire need an SEC tournament championship to qualify. Yes, we know that's not the only storyline. Come for the chance to see America's best pure point guard (Tyler Ulis) and stay to watch Stefan Moody drop 40 points -- in a loss? Vanderbilt needs wins in this tournament. Texas A&M is fighting to regain its pre-February form. Until they're dismissed, however, the LSU Tigers will be the headliners in Nashville.
Who will win? Kentucky
