The Updated National Title Odds: LSU Women's Basketball's Championship Odds

In this story:
Kim Mulkey and the No. 7 ranked LSU Tigers (25-2, 10-2 SEC) remain on the radar as a National Championship caliber program despite a recent loss to the Texas Longhorns.
With Mulkey at the helm, it's no secret the Tigers will be in the conversation as a club that can compete for a title year in and year out.
ESPN has revealed the latest "Women's Basketball Bracketology" with the buzz on top seeds, bubble teams and the automatic bids heading into March.
LSU is currently for No. 2 in the Southeastern Conference following a recent loss to the Texas Longhorns in Austin. The Tigers hold a 25-2 (10-2) record on the season.
According to ESPN's recent "bracketology,", the LSU Tigers are listed as a No. 2 seed as it currently stands with the chance to reach No. 1 status before the NCAA Tournament arrives, but it would take multiple factors out of their control.
Here's what ESPN revealed last week during the initial release of the SEC seeds:
“As the SEC turns, so does the national bracketology picture. Sunday featured a matchup of projected No. 1 seeds (South Carolina and Texas) and another game between a team (LSU) trying to get to the No. 1 line against an opponent (Tennessee) fresh off a win over UConn and fighting for a spot in the coveted top 16.
"Then on Monday, Ole Miss beat Kentucky in a meeting of teams also in contention for the top 16. The SEC currently has eight squads in the top 18 of the S-curve (and Alabama is only a No. 6 seed because it had to be moved down to accommodate bracketing principles). No other league’s final two weeks of the regular season and conference tournament will have as much influence on what happens on Selection Sunday.
"Despite losing to Texas, South Carolina maintains No. 1 overall (remember, the Gamecocks beat the Longhorns by 17 less than a month ago), but the Horns have a firmer hold on a top seed. Ole Miss got a crucial win over Kentucky but still isn’t in the top 16. It’s probable that six SEC teams (and possibly as many as seven) will be hosting NCAA tournament games.”
The current schools in LSU's Region include: Georgia Tech, Minnesota and Southeastern Louisiana.
In that scenario, LSU would host the first and second rounds prior to heading to the Spokane Region.
There will be several key factors down the stretch that will likely cause for significant shakeup to LSU's side of the bracket, but for now, Mulkey's squad is a No. 2 seed.
