Usually, the SEC averages about 8 teams in the postseason (sometimes 7, sometimes 9). This year it looks like Vandy, LSU, South Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi St., and Ole Miss are locks, which probably leaves 2 at large spots for 5 teams to fight over.


FLORIDA (25-23, 12-12 in SEC)
RPI: 19
SOS: 1
KEY SERIES WINS: Miami (2 of 3), Ole Miss (2 of 3), South Carolina (sweep)
KEY SERIES LOSSES: Florida Gulf Coast (swept)
LAST 10 GAMES: 5-5


KENTUCKY (27-19, 10-14 in SEC)
RPI: 30
SOS: 24
KEY SERIES WINS: at Florida (2 of 3), Miss St. (2 of 3), at Ole Miss (2 of 3)
KEY SERIES LOSSES: Tenn (2 of 3)
LAST 10 GAMES: 3-7


ALABAMA (27-21, 11-12 in SEC)
RPI: 32
SOS: 22
KEY SERIES WINS: at Auburn (2 of 3), at Florida Atlantic (2 of 3)
KEY SERIES LOSSES: Tulane (2 of 3)
LAST 10 GAMES: 5-5


AUBURN (27-19, 9-15)
RPI: 49
SOS: 38
KEY SERIES WINS: at Texas A&M (2 of 3), Ole Miss (2 of 3)
KEY SERIES LOSSES: at Missouri (2 of 3)
LAST 10 GAMES: 5-5


TEXAS A&M (26-22, 10-13 in SEC)
RPI: 61

I think y'all deserve it, but RPI is still low.

If Ole Miss continues to slide do they become in jeopardy of not making the tournament? I concede I haven't followed their out of conference slate.

They have 33 wins and a top 20 RPI, they could try to not make it and still make it in as a 3 seed somewhere.

They could certainly host a regional. They won't host a superregional.

They are going to be like UGA a couple years ago, their RPI and SOS is so good that all they have to do is finish over .500 and will get a bid.

Don't 12 teams get in now? You should be safe if that's correct.

If you are insinuating that 10 SEC teams make it because the conference added two teams...

I DGAF either way. Part of me would enjoy some true summertime ball at Baum with opposing fans, but there's the other side that knows we play better on the road this season (for whatever the hell reason).
