Florida has a healthy stable of guards.

That’s the nature of variance though. We locked down Sears for the most part but the supporting cast all played extremely well for Bama.

Phil would’ve done crap if Butler was playing and our offense would’ve flown much better. Most of the first half we played very even with them and hell they let Perry score 10 on them. Let that sit in.
 
All these performances against Kentucky, what will the rest of the SEC do when they get into the NCAA tournament? What will they do when the officiating is anything different than what they experienced in the SEC ?

won't be shocked at all to see the league collectively crap the bed.

we shall see.
Gonna be like the old Big East. They’d beat each other to death in conference, get the most teams in and they’d all be gone except maybe 2 by the sweet 16.

Florida came out the first five minutes of the second half and has now put away 'Bama. Bama and Auburn are good teams and have had good years, but they won't win the NCAA title this year. Florida is the best team in the league this year. Vols have as much shot to go as far as Bama and Auburn, but don't think they will make an elite eight or final four, either, this year.

If the SEC can't get - at a minimum - 2 teams to the elite eight this year, with 4 teams getting a 1 or 2 seed, then it will be a collective failure for the league in the tournament. I have a definite feeling of what is coming. It'll be interesting to see what happens. And I could be wrong, but history is on my side in thinking the SEC will struggle.

The SEC finally "came of age" this season, as far as reaching great potential comparatively against the other power 5 conferences this year. But the final judgment will be the NCAAT. They gotta' buck that trend to finally get over the last hump for this league to think of itself as anything but a football conference.

Part of me wants the SEC to get made a fool of again so perhaps the SEC heads wake up and say "ok, this physical thing we've been trying to push and encourage with properly-taught refs isn't going to work as well as we thought".

Except UK - I want UK to go further than the rest of the SEC. :)

I believe a big part of the SEC dominance in the polls is in great part to the rest of the conferences being not good. The ACC outside of Duke is (uncharacteristically) weak. The Big 10 is watered down and I don’t even know what teams are in the Big 12 except Kansas and they are mediocre.
