If they come out of that unscathed they deserve a championship.
They’ll likely get 2-3 losses out of that
Looking at their conference schedule so far, it’s been relatively soft

Every team they have left is currently ranked, they play the #1 team twice, and the average AP ranking of their remaining opponents is 9.7. No one else is even close.
Auburn probably has the second hardest remaining schedule, given they play Alabama twice, Kentucky, Ole Miss, and TaM. So 3 top 10 matchups and 2 top 20.
TaM has 4 games left against ranked teams (1, 3, 5, and 22).
Ole Miss also has the same 4 games left against ranked teams (1, 3, 5, and 22).
LSU has 5 ranked teams left to play (3, 5, 8, 15, and 22).
Vandy also has 5 games against ranked opponents but fewer on the high end (5, 8, 15, 19, and 21). To be fair, they did just lose to #1 in their last game so that's a brutal stretch.
Oklahoma has 5 ranked matchups as well but even more on the lower end (3, 15, 19, 21, 22).
Arkansas has 4 ranked matchups left (1, 8, 21, and 22).
By comparison 4 of our remaining games are against unranked teams, though we do have to play #1 and #2. No one else in the SEC plays more than 3 ranked teams
Texas has the easiest remaining schedule in the SEC, with their only ranked matchups being against us (15) and Miss State (22).

Duke's is 109 and that is close enough for the media.
Yesterday, took a look at Duke's schedule and season results so far. To say it's laughably soft would be an understatement. That has to be the least tested 'good' team I can remember seeing.
I read somewhere that UK had the 9th toughest schedule left in the country, and the 8th toughest in the SEC.
I thought our schedule was tough but Alabama's is TOUGH. Alabama also had the easy schedule I'm pretty sure to start SEC play.
We are 7-2 against the top 25 so our schedule to this point was no walk in the park either!
Exactly! They haven't played a ranked at the time team since their Auburn win at home 12/4. They have no more games scheduled against teams ranked as of today. If they don't win out, they do not deserve a #1 seed.

And then a few days later in consecutive days it could be:
#5
#3
#1
(that's actually the way it would play out if the SEC-T were held today & the favorites won.
