1. UK
2. South Carolina
3. Arkansas
4. Florida
5. Texas A&M
I think it's very easy to say the top 5 teams are far and away the best in conference this year and should all make the tourney.
Next group
6. Ole Miss
7. UGA
8. Auburn
9. MSU
10. LSU
11. Alabama
drop off
12. Tennessee
13. Mizzou
14. Vandy

Hope Alabama regroups and wins all of their games until the SEC Tourney

TOP 5:
I agree with the members of this group but I don't see UF being that low imo.
Also Mizzou has to be #14 because Jesus wants them to be worst in all big 3 sports this year.

Arkansas has some very good talent this year but MA's tendency for his teams to collapse on the road concerns me.
A mediocre conference record for SEC women's basketball gets you a ticket to the Big Dance and probably a respectable ranking. The same for men's basketball lands you on the bubble at best and likely in the NIT. There isn't a lot of margin for error.

I think only 3 teams make the tournament
UK
USCe
UF
Ark I will include if they decide they can win road games this year. Side note - smart move by Mike Anderson in a year which he's probably coaching for his job to get 10/12 OOC games in Ark this season.

Nobody else really cares enough about basketball in the South to even invest in their programs.

Me too.
I'll need comforting and coddling this year if we carry on with that.

We seem really young right now so I think we can win games we shouldn't and lose ones we should.
Won't win the SEC, but maybe be thorns in the sides of those who might.

I think Arkansas could possibly finish 2nd behind UK if they continue to improve. How they play Saturday on the road against Texas will say a lot about how much they have matured since the Minnesota loss. If they go out and stink it up then I'm not sure we are better than 5 to 7th in the league.

Tennessee is very young but have played the top teams tough. Had a second half lead against #16 Wisconsin, took #13 Oregon to OT (both in Maui)and had the lead at #7 North Carolina with 2 minutes left. They get another shot against a ranked team against Gonzaga on Sunday. They may very well finish toward the bottom of the standings, but they will be no easy out for anybody other than Kentucky.

Vandy won't get anywhere near this level unless they improve substantially over the course of the year. I think the OP got it right...

Pretty sure they won most of their conference road games in 2014 and 3 or 4 last year with a terrible team with no depth. Even counting last year they are something like 9-9 or 10-10 the last 2 years in conference road games. They will probably win half or more this season.

Agreed, the number of teams that will make the tourney from the SEC seems to be shrinking. It is important that each SEC team finishes out the OOC strong and the teams do well in the SEC vs Big 12 challenge.

It isn't a big deal, but you're way off about the Vols. They have a good - if not great - freshman class, and along with a good senior in Hubbs, they will be middle of the pack.

All I know is that LSU looks terrible.

Outside of 2 years ago Mike has a horrific record away from BWA
2011-12 = 1-11
2012-13 = 2-12
2013-14 = 5-10
2014-15 = 11-7
2015-16 = 3-12
2016-17 = 0-1
That's a 22-53 record away from BWA, BTW that includes games in little rock which helps him...
