In other words, who could the SEC least afford to lose in the modern world of college athletics? Who brings the most to the table, factoring in fan base, tv market, prestige, competitiveness, etc.?

My ranking:

1. Florida
2. Georgia
3. Alabama
4. Texas A&M
5. Tennessee
6. LSU
7. Kentucky
8. Auburn
9. Missouri
10. South Carolina
11. Arkansas
12. Vandy
13. Ole Miss
14. Mississippi St

Florida and Georgia are the most well-rounded.
Vanderbilt for academics.
Alabama for football.
Kentucky for men's basketball.

Uhh..OM should be at the bottom. At least we've had baseball success over the years. We've also had better basketball over the years, just not in the last two seasons.

1. Bama, won the most football games, won the most baseball games and Second in basketball wins in SEC., And now the King of golf.Bama women have won national titles in Gymnastics, Softball and Golf in the last 3 years

2 Florida, their football has slipped but they could turn it around if this O.C is the real deal.

3. LSU, top 2 or in Football in the last 10 years and top 2 in baseball. Track is usually prety good also.

4. Georgia because of Atlanta basically.

5. Texas AM because of the Texas market and the probability they become the new destination school in Texas.


6. USCe, Football is very good, baseball is better, basketball will get better with Martin.

7. Kentucky, Basketball is King of all the USA NUFF SAID.

8. Mizzoi pretty well rounded but their A.D. struck out in their basketball hire, IN THEIR OPTIONS.

9 Tennessee, top tier in most of the big sports over the long haul.

10. Arkansas usually good in basketball and baseball, Bret will have them better at football once he gets his recruits in.

11. Ole Miss, The Groove, baseball, basketbal both pretty dsng good and football showing promise.

12. Auburn only good in horses and football, and only good in football evrry 3 or 4 years, Alabama nor Georgia really wants them.

13. Vanderbilt, pretty good in basketball & baseball and they have a good market in Nashville.

14. Miss St. hard to get to, average in everything, never won a national title in anything unless we count Cow patty tossing.

Kentucky should be higher. Basketball is the 2nd most popular sport in the NCAA. Then add in their national titles.

Big6 + A&M = very important, foundation of the conference (order is irrelevant and fluid)

Mizzou, Kentucky, Arky, USC , oleMiss = less important but certainly bring something to the table

Vandy/MissSt = no offense to either, truly, but low value
