Vanderbilt was picked 10th in the SEC preseason by the media...so no, definitely cant say they have disappointed.

Sorry the gen pop is dumb. I'd expect more from knowledgable basketball people.

You were #1, with that ranking comes top expectations, when you dont meet them, here's the backlash. You've lost 3 games to this point, it was definitely coming.

Vandy is having a good season thus far. We will win many conference games and perhaps make a run at the NCAA. Bank on it.

Meh, I know going into the season I was hoping UK would roll MSU, Baylor, NC and whoever else they played in OOC. Losing those games isn't a knock on the team because the losses were to quality teams and UK is just so young again, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed that they lost those games. If the SEC is going to improve its perception nationally, arguably it's just important for the top SEC teams to beat the top teams from the B1G and Big 12 and ACC as it is for the bottom of the conference to pick it up. UK/MSU and UK/NC games are going to garner more attention and establish perceptions more than Vandy beating Georgia Tech.
