no other SEC decade has compared in terms of sheer numbers of good/great teams
The 90s would like to talk to you, but I know you want to hear none of if because LSU was a shitfest.
Final Four:
1990:
Arkansas - Although not yet in the SEC
1993:
Kentucky
1994:
Arkansas - National Champions
Florida
1995:
Arkansas - National Runner Up
1996:
Kentucky - National Champions
Ms. State
1997:
Kentucky - National Runner-Up
1998:
Kentucky
91,92, and 99 were the only years the SEC didn't have a team in the final four.

You are soooo stupid
Sheer number of good/great teams was my point. Not final four teams
the sec programs of the 80's, all 10 of them, had solid success from top to bottom in the 80's.
While the SEC may have had final four teams in the 90's, the MAJORITY of the rest of the conference sucked...like now
we are talking about top to bottom Dale, not two best teams
eta: It's like saying that since UK won it all last year, the conference is great, which is TOTAL FAILURE
top to bottom the SEC in the 80's was the shite....not really before or after
