I don't think UK ends that low.

No, their schedule is about to heat up a bit.

LSU too low. They just beat a team that beat Arkansas!

I don't think you get to cut the Kansas game as it was just an exhibition

Conference play is about to be AWESOME.
And, even better, it'll be like the ACC/Big 12 where almost every game is against a Top 50 RPI team, so there are almost no "bad losses".

It must be really shitty to be an Arkansas fan and having to live in Shreveport

Thanks to Missouri and the others boosting conference RPI.
Posted on 12/14/17 at 8:44 am to Hawgeye
think we can get 7 teams to the dance this year?

Said preseason the last place team will probably be something like a 5-6 win conference team. SEC will certainly cannibalize itself some this year. Not 1 bad team in the bunch really.

Absolutely if Tennessee continues at least, at a mediocre rate through conference play.
Florida
aTm
Arkansas
Kentucky
Alabama
Tennessee
Missouri
are all certainly NCAAt contenders and will be in the mix IMO. The wild card is going to be Auburn. Projections are a little higher on them than I am. If they can hit 20-21 wins there may be talk of 8 SEC teams, which is pretty crazy IMO.

I think everyone expects Wiley to get cleared. With him I think Auburn wins two extra conference games. I think without him we're 9-9 or 8-10.

i pointed out in the kenpom thread that espn rpi this morning has 11 sec teams in the TOP 55. that's insane.

Good grief, 78% of the league in the top 55 for Kenpom IS insane. On paper this is shaping up to be the best season for SEC basketball ever isn't it?

I expect us to. Tennessee looks like the 3rd/4th best team in the conference up to this point.
We're deep with an 11 man rotation, #1 in the league in Assists per game and #9 nationally, 1st* in 3pt % in the league and #24 nationally @ 41.2% on the year, 2nd in Off rebounds in the league & #41 nationally. #4 in the league in Def. Eff & #27th Nationally (Expecting State will drop once they actually start to play a Division 1 schedule)
This is the most complete basketball team and coaching we've had since 2010 IMO.

Senile.
Posted on 12/14/17 at 12:51 pm to Arksulli
and here's another thought. the worst team in the conference has beaten michigan and houston and has a 6-2 overall record. i just can't get over how insane that is. heck, lsu's rpi is ~120 which isn't horrendous. the WORST team in the conference.
