Depends on what night you play them, they struggled against Prairie Veiw and McNeese St.
The whole conference is gonna be tough. Literally every game is going to be tough. I’ve never seen a conference this stacked 1-16 before ever.
Miss St plays aggressive, hard defense. They will make it difficult for us to get open threes, so I think we will have to rely on Carr, Oweh and Butler getting to the rim. OTOH, Miss. St. is knocking down threes at a 50% rate against Memphis. This may be one of our losses this season having to play at their place.
MSU has really good defense. Memphis has 12 turnovers at the half and they all came off steals.
We have never experienced what we are about to experience. This is going to be a wild season.
They now have USCjr at 84

It's amazing that 15 SEC teams are essentially top 60 teams.
Whoever wins the SEC tourney should be crowned national champion.
The rest of the nation looks weak.
No, Vandy might be the only one and that's not a gimmie.
Absolutely no one is whining. We are stating how freaking difficult this conference is gonna be.
I think you can say this about every single SEC team this year. 12-6 might take home the regular season title.
Anyone who doesn’t have HH on ignore at this point is just asking for it. Trollmaster supreme.
This MS St. win bumped us up a rank in Kenpom. We and State both beat Georgia State and Memphis was Maui runner-up.
The SEC I feel has always been slept on as a basketball conference. I don't know why that was but there's no denying it now. Without a doubt it's the best it's ever been. It's better than the Big East in their heyday. These tough games will only make us better come March. Of course, it makes the other conference teams better as well.
That’s what I came here to say. Find the best game every SEC team has played this year, and this will be the team we will play on the road this year.
If Pope hasn’t seen it yet, he will . You need at least 3 quick, fast guards that can shoot and stay in front of their man on defense. Miss St, A&M, Tn, Fla., etc all get these guys and we have paid for it over the past bunch of years with that idiot Cal. Guards win the NCAA and Cal didn’t give a shit about anything but getting guys to the NBA and our program suffered because of it. I could name 15 players that we could have had but because of Cal’s agenda they went elsewhere. Walter Clayton Jr was one of them. I will never forgive Cal for the damage he caused and I don’t want to hear from any of you Cal nut huggers. Pope gets a pass this year regardless of what happens and I am sure he will get us back on track. Go Cats!!!!
You’re acting like Kentucky is down this year. We’re 4th in the country. Clark Kellogg on Kentucky “ Kentucky is one of the most impressive teams I’ve seen so far this year. They’re deep, they’re tied together nicely, they play both ends of the floor, the’ve got 6 guys averaging double figures and the best scoring team in the country.”

And they’re due.
Cal was 15-0 against MSU in the regular season. They are the only SEC team that didn’t beat Cal in the regular season. They last beat us in the regular season in 2009.
This will be a tough early SEC test for the Cats and I won’t meltdown if we drop that one assuming we don’t lose by 40.
100% agree with OP. This is the 3rd time I’ve watched them play this year and I’ve felt that every time
