I figure UK is in a league of their own with us fla and arky behind them. But what about the rest? Has anyone seen other mid tier teams play? I've seen UT play some and Vandy and they both look tough. Any insight on other teams?

Ole Miss is average and lost to a bad mid-major at home. overall not a good team
MSU is terrible
Mizzou is dumpster fire
Alabama is average to below average
UF has been a disappointment thus far. They just got a mid semester transfer eligible and will get better
UK is a friggin beast
aTm is average to below avg
S. Car is imporved (average)
Vandy is down by their standards
Auburn is garbage
UGA is pretty decent---NIT worthy
UT is inconsistent. depends on how they play on each given night. could be an NCAA team or NIT depending on how they develop. They are alot like LSU in that regard
thats all I got

I've watched a bunch of the other teams, none impress other than UK obviously.
as a LSU fans, I have a hard time saying LSU can't finish second in the conference this year

UK is alone at the top. Could be one of the best defensive teams ever
UF is struggling a bit, but they still have the best coach in the league. Still a minimum 10 win SEC team.
Bama is much improved from last year. Right now they are the 3rd best SEC team IMO.
Ark and LSU are a lot alike. Talented but can be very inconsistent. Can beat or lose to anyone in the league.
UGA - experienced. Seem to be more effective against SEC teams than OOC teams
A&M better than last season; same with USC
Vandy - always well coached, but probably a year away from really competing
Ole Miss, AU and UT. - will win some games they're not supposed to, but still in the bottom half of the league
MSU and Mizzou - cellar dwellers

It goes without saying that Kentucky is far away the best in the league, and the country. I still think Florida will be second best as they get healthy and mesh. I think the group after those two includes LSU, Alabama, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Georgia and South Carolina. All of those teams have some good qualities, and frankly they all probably have more flaws than those good qualities. South Carolina is going to have it's best team in years. Alabama (although still mind-blowingly frustrating for me) and Arkansas are both improved. Ole Miss has a couple of nice wins already out of conference. The SEC is better than it has been in recent years, but that's not saying much and it's still a 4-bid league at best IMO. The OOC schedule and what teams do when they get their shots at UK and maybe Florida will determine who gets those bids, and how many there are. We've seen in recent years it really doesn't matter where you finish in the standings in a weak league.

I've seen too many seasons where we were supposed to be in the top tier of the conference and other teams were put down.
But it's the SEC. Every game will be tough unless we shoot well and play to our potential. Road games are never easy and we are bound to lose some to so called "bad" teams. And I've seen Ole Miss and Vandy play and they aren't bad.
If a team exploits the holes in our defense(yes we still have them) and keeps it close then it only takes a couple of plays to steal the win.
So all you wide eyed optomists that think we will walk all over the lower tier of the SEC, forget about it.
