re: '12-'13 - Year in Review (Basketball)

The one main thing we have to do next year is root for the other SEC teams to do very well in the pre-conference schedule. I was guilty of not doing this this year. I thought is was humorous that Texas A&M lost to Southern at home, and that Mississippi State racked up losses to Alabama A&M, Troy, Illinois Chicago, and that Alabama lost to Mercer, etc. While funny at the time, what those losses ultimately did was ruin the conference's RPI and put it in the bind that it ended up in where only 6 teams combined got into the post season. The SEC was the 8th best league this year...right there with the Atlantic 10 and the Missouri Valley. Come November, root for your fellow league members to clean up against the non-conference foes.
