…. based on performance on the court and the eye test, it seems to me that the SEC is as good as any other conference this year.
That said, I think we are going to see the league consume itself this year and beat each other up …. so the question will be how many teams ultimately get in the NCAA tournament if we beat one another up ….I suspect there’s going to be a bunch of SEC teams on both sides of the bubble. Invariably, some deserving teams will get left out ….which means, for the Cats, we have to find a way to finish above 0.500 in order to get a bid.
Today was a good start ….but we have a lot of work to do in order to get in. We can’t afford to lose many more games.
Here are the standings as of this morning (excludes games played today):
