So Much for the SEC Being Down

[Vol67]

2 teams in the Elite 8

 

[milohimself]

Same deal with my Pac-10... If Washington can survive this attempted robbery by UConn's refs.

 

[mattvols]

I dont get the who thing about us being weak this year.

[BHAMVOLFAN]

ACC is weak this year, SEC pretty good.

 

[kiddiedoc]

I was just thinking while listening to Sportstalk this morning: the SEC is not only pretty good this year, but JUST WAIT until next year: with Florida and LSU both being young (and IF they can avert leakage into the NBA), Kentucky with the talented Sophomores, Tennessee with Pearl and the new recruits. . . .

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Next years SEC could very easily be this years Big East.

 

[NCGatorBait]

ACC is weak this year, SEC pretty good.

ACC was definitely down with all the NBA defections, but it will be only the fourth time in the last 20 years no ACC team has been in the FF and only the fifth time that neither UNC or Duke has not been there. Pretty impressive stat.

 

[Taylor Moran]

LSU will be good next year. Unless their players don't go pro, they only have one senior and the rest are basically sophomores and freshman

 

[govols]

Yea the SEC is doing well. The ACC fell apart.

 

[Crakaveli]

east coast bias would make you believe that

 

[rwemyss]

:bump3: I told everyone early in the SEC season that the conference was underrated... but WOW. 2 Final Four teams.. and we swept one of them.

 

[hvwarrior58]

I don't think the SEC was down, just very young. Look at the 2 final 4 reps. This could easily be the best conference in the nation in a year or two if there aren't too many NBA defections. Just look at us, UF, LSU, and Bama.

Thats awesome. Wouldnt have believed it until it happened.

 

[Taylor Moran]

Possible SEC matchup in the national championship. That would be awesome
LSU vs. Florida
I'd take LSU in this one

[General Jack]

SEC > Big East
SEC > ACC
SEC > Pac-10
SEC > Big 10
SEC > all comers...

And just in case you've forgotten, VOLS won the SEC East.

 

[rwemyss]

I think all the pundits had this assumption that as UK goes, so goes the SEC. Maybe they learned their lesson this year.

 

[dan4vols]

I cant wait to hear the sports radio personalities around here who've been hollerin all year long how the SEC is weak...and this was a down year and now 2 teams are in the final 4, who could end up being an all SEC champ game.

 

[govols]

I could see LSU and Florida in the championship.

 

[Alley]

Plaster just "booked" LSU vs UF in the title game...

 

[Brojan]

IF...lsu and uf are in the title game, has it ever happend that both teams in the title game are from the same conference?

 

[milohimself]

IF...lsu and uf are in the title game, has it ever happend that both teams in the title game are from the same conference?

Three times...

1976 - Indiana vs. Michigan
1985 - Villanova vs. Georgetown
1988 - Kansas vs. Oklahoma
