I know Auburn is rebuilding, but are they still the best

Basketball team in the SEC?

No question about is. The Bruce is loose

Too early to make that call
I'm not writing off this UK team just yet. What happened re:Evansville was a classic instance of a Calipari team with 5 18 year olds. It pains me, but they will inevitably turn it around in time for conference play.
I haven't watched any other SEC teams besides VOLS, LSU and the Wildcats so far this szn. LSU still looks strong. VOLS look alright- the B unit from last year is taking charge (Fulky, Pons, Bowden)

I mean, we aren’t losing to Evansville or VCU. So yeah, a strong case can be made

Low basketball IQ detected. Early season games against randos hardly mean anything

Didn’t they need last second heroics to beat USA?

Just propping up the in state teams

Hell of a win vs team USA.

KenPom ranks the top half of the SEC
UK
VOLS
Auburn
Florida
Arkansas
Missouri
LSU
The next month or so of basketball should be interesting. UK and UF have been very sluggish early and we are still learning about the AU/VOLS/LSU tier since all 3 teams lost so much. AU has looked very good at times but they are a little lucky to be 4-0. LSU will probably be fine but they aren't really testing themselves again in the non league so it will be tough to slot them in to the league going in to league play. VOLS have an absolute gauntlet starting tomorrow so we should get an answer on them in the next 45 days. Arkansas has been extremely impressive early and Ole Miss is going to be a damn good basketball team too.
South Carolina, Mizzou and Miss State are all tourney quality teams in all likelihood as well but I doubt all will actually make it.
I'm selling UGA pretty hard but Edwards is probably the best player in the league.
Bama is dangerous against quality competition with Lewis and Petty but they are very flawed.
A&M is bad and Vandy is still putrid.

Just beat Georgia and Alabama. No worries about basketball right now

Not the most modest for sure.

USA will probably be a 1 seed in the NCAA Tourney

Too early to tell....look, just stop the stupid shite for a minute and discuss the SEC basketball season based on things, so far. Here is my take and if anyone doesn't like it, go eat a shite sandwich....
AU is good, has potential but its still to be determined as to just how good....I see a something along the line of 24-11 season with PG being our bugaboo
KY could be a disappointment as far as whats expected at Kentucky, but they are talented and will improve as the season goes on....I do not see them winning the SEC
LSU is more talented than I expected but the NCAA stuff will surface and cause more damage than opponents will
Alabama is probably a below .500 team during conference play....they are not as bad as they look right now....they ain't great but Oates is a good coach and will get them better as the year goes on....not a tourney team though
Tennessee is surprisingly good with what they lost....i didn't expect that and i suspect that they just might be the conference regular season champ this year....very good guard play
moo st. will be tough at home and maybe a tourney team before its all over
Texas aggots looked awful against Gonzo last night....they can't be that bad...... can they?
Arkansas is the best team that I have seen so far, but the style of play is going to be hard to carry on the road....another possible conference regular season champ
Vandy does not play defense but can score....they are a team that should not be overlooked, but will likely have a losing record
UF was not impressive in the 2 times that i have watched them...they will look definitely better down the line and be a tourney team...
thats all of the teams that i have seen so far....UT and Ark are the two best, with AU behind them

Dude, tone it down. You're being too much of a troll prick on a Saturday morning.
Auburn looks good so far. Haven't watched any other SEC teams.
Glad to have BP coaching. Hope he stays for a long time and keeps AU good in bball.
And I know half the AU fanbase on here will turn on him in the blink of an eye when a bad loss happens.
Way of the world I guess.

For any AU fan to turn on Bruce and two SECC’s and a final four after the decade plus of purgatory we’ve experienced
