I agree with this. Arkansas, Tennessee, Missouri and maybe South Carolina have the nicest basketball facilities in the league and then its a pretty big drop off.
Similar situation exists for baseball. Baum, The Box, Carolina, Ole Miss, TAMU in some order, then State and Florida.
Tennessee is building a new park, albeit slowly, and in stages. Auburn has a new park, but it's small. The rest of the conference is Big East level for facilities.

we just built an 80 mil. dollar football facility....needs revision
You get points off for all of your facilities being in Starkghanistan (don't try to get out of it with that Mississippi State, MS crap, either).

I was going more for the indoor sports facilities
Don't hate. It's (almost) all downhill from where the Hogs are, facilities wise.

This is a July topic.
List is horrible and misinformed.
Alabama has spent $250 million in the last 10 years
constructing or renovating every athletic facility.
Alabama's football, softball, indoor & outdoor tennis stadiums & gymnastics facilities are all easily #1 in the SEC.

Football yes, atm. The rest is debatable. Baseball and basketball are not top half facilities.
And since the list includes plans in the works and on-going renovations, Alabama is pretty much right where it deserves to be.

I have a feeling you havent seen pics of every singlr athletics facility in the SEC.
My statement still stands...you're horribly misinformed.
Go educate yourself and research.
And the shitty eyesore that is Tiger Stadium knocks LSU down 3 or 4 slots.(Maravich Center is pretty horrible too. Looks like the '70s threw up on it.)
Been there in '08 & '10...even LSU fans say it's a dump.
I was actually surprised at its bad condition.
And the new renovations will be like putting lipstick on a pig.

Reading is fundamental.

I think UK just did a major upgrade to their T&F facilities. They were supposed to built the new baseball stadium where the softball facility is now and move softball where baseball is now. Since they are spending money to upgrade the softball facility I am not sure if the baseball is on permanent hold.
Basketball got the Joe Craft and a brand new basketball dorm so they are #1 in basketball facilities. Rupp may be older but it still seats 24,000 and is not as corporate looking as YUM thank god.
I think the basketball upgrades at LSU are pretty nice and Box is one of the better baseball facilities in the SEC. The work they did on Tiger Stadium this spring helped spruce it up. Knoxville has some good facilities and having the WCBB HoF is a nice side trip.

Have you been to the Auburn basketball arena? It is HORRIBLE. It was built to look old and it does. It is concrete and ....well concrete. It is the ugliest, worst lit arena in the SEC. Of course i could be wrong.

Yes. It's not the best, but in the SEC, it's upper half.
I've edited the OP to include the instruction...although it shouldn't need it...to feel free to make your own list.

i have been on the ut campus many times and to say they are #1 in the sec i gotta call bull shite. maybe i haven't been in about 7 or 8 yrs so they could have done some building. i remember a mediocre and very small baseball facility, a very old track facility, the football indoor practice facility was only half a field and some other things that just weren't very good. their basketball arena was top notch and neyland itself is tier one and i have heard their players lockerroom/weight facilities etc are as good as it gets but so are numerous others. i guess i forget to check out the friggin' womens gymnastics facilities.

You're just mad because BDS hasn't been called "College Football's ultimate setting"
