Running out of time for that...even so, if 1 tanks 1 of those other 3 could easily make it in. 8 seems almost certain, but even if it’s 7 you said that wouldn’t happen either, 8 was simply the number for you eating your hat.

Yeah it’s been a crazy year. Didn’t see the parity like this coming.

I have a different opinion about it as to why it’s happening though. I’m sure you’ll disagree.

I don’t have much of a theory so not sure I would disagree. I think it’s just one of those years around the country, I think there weren’t as many dominating freshman as in years past so your Kentucky’s haven’t been quite as dominating, same for Duke, UNC, Kansas etc.

I think would be good for UK to beat Arkansas. Right now UK is projected at the 7 seed in the SECT. A win would love then up a spot I think

I don't know about the freshman part but that seems to be true. I just feel like there's a lot of average teams.

In years past I think the SEC has been underrated. I think this year it is overrated. It just took a few more non conference wins to tip the scales in the public perception and computer model perception.

So the league looks like it's gonna end up with more teams in the dance than I thought. But it's because everyone is just kinda the same. Not because we have a bunch of really good teams.

However you want to term it, the SEC has caught up. Whether that means we have improved, or the rest of the country has fallen back. The result is the same.

I think the league is improved overall. I just don't really think all these teams are suddenly really good. I think there's a lot of slightly above average teams.

I don't think we were as far behind as it was portrayed in years past.

Texas A&M is about to lose to Miss St at home and fall to 6-9 in conference.

Not sure they will get in.

I know their RPI and everything is strong, but do they get in if they finish 2 or 3 games under .500 in the SEC

They are fine at 8-10 but I don't think they are going to get there.
