I definitely get some teams going to the line more often than others, but there's an annoying trend to where home court is just crazy over the top.
Give me your top 5 SEC teams 3 games into conference play
1. Auburn
2. Kentucky
3. Alabama
4. Florida
5. Tennessee
1. Auburn
2. Kentucky
3. Alabama
4. Florida
5. Tennessee
UK has the best wins, but also the worst losses IMO. You can mess around with the top 5 and have some type of argument. I think Bama has looked impressive, I'd probably have them 2 but Kentucky's win vs MsSt was very impressive as well on the road. It was weird seeing Bama out rebound A&M.
I'd rather Florida be ranked lower than the rest of the top teams so they can play pissed off.

Yeah, those 2 losses aren't a good look, but they aren't bad losses, both were quad 1 games.
But to me, wins over Duke, @ Gonzaga, Florida and @ MSU, are better wins than anyone else has, with the exception of UT's win at Illinois and Auburn's win over Iowa State.
Auburn and Alabama have a win over Houston, but we don't know how good Houston is, they haven't beaten anyone yet.
5 teams have a good argument though and here we are about to go through another week where there will be possible separation.
Auburn has a 38 point win over a team that kentucky lost to by 20. Both games were neutral site games also. I have no idea how UK lost to ohio st. Or clemson. Yes you beat duke but your game wasnt at cameron indoor like ours.
BTW statement win by Auburn tonight. 22 point win over Miss st. without Broome
Well, losses to Ohio state shouldn't be surprising considering how this team had to he pieced together.
If they play that game again, I guarantee you it would go much differently.
Auburn is on another level right now, my hope is UK can be good enough to beat Auburn when they play. Luckily the two teans dont clash until March.
But I like what UK has accomplished to this point, tgey have a better resume than most, I'll take that.
It won't be easy, but this team.is easily good enough to do it and they'll be at full strength.
We will see. I believe we win there when I see it. We seemed cursed there. I mean our final 4 team lost there by 32 at full strength. Then somehow beat kentucky without our only nba prospect out a few weeks later in the elite 8.
Been a lot of weird games between those 2 programs since BP got there.
That 2019 E8 game hurt, we had it won and let go if the rope.
UK winning on the plains last year was crazy to me, I didn't think that was possible.
Oof tough loss. We definitely did NOT deserve to win that one, but I'm glad they didn't quit. That ****in guy that looks like the dude from requiem for a dream killed us lmao. Good win for Mizzou.
I was watching it with the sound off, that kid hit every three he threw up.
I didn’t see this one coming.
We came into that game with low energy. Mizzou came into it razor focused. They straight up punked us in that first half similar to how we did vs UT. Florida fought to get back in it (refs mighta helped a bit too) and still whenever we had a chance to close the gap we also messed up. They miss 2 fts then we miss 2/3. Just one of those nights. First game I've seen Martin play poorly. Proud of them for not quitting though.
Those two games last night (yours and Bama's) should be a warning to everyone in the SEC, you better come out of the gate with your hair on fire in every game, or you're going to get beat.
yes. Auburn was lucky to get by south carolina when we came out flat
They made some crazy 3s thats for sure. have to go back and look at their percentages but they seemed to be unable to miss for a bit.
Really hurt us to have Tommy Haugh get 4 fouls in the first half. I swear these refs want to insert themselves in every game nowadays. They ejected a kid on Mizzou also but I stepped away for literally a second and I missed what happened. Guessing it was probably BS.
