Gives his thoughts on these questions:
1. Is Missouri the best team in the SEC?
The computer polls that weigh advanced metrics more heavily aren’t as high on the Tigers, but the AP voters just slotted No. 10 Mizzou and ahead of Alabama by a narrow vote count.
MU finished with 966 poll points (1 point for No. 25, 2 points for No. 24, etc.). Alabama checked in with 911 points.
2. Is Cuonzo Martin the leader for SEC coach of the year?
Dick Vitale called Martin the award’s top candidate during Saturday night’s Kentucky-Tennessee ESPN broadcast … quickly followed by a plug for Alabama’s Nate Oats.
At this point, it seems like a two-man race between Martin and Oats.
3. Who is Missouri’s best candidate for All-SEC honors?
Some nights it’s Xavier Pinson....other nights it’s Jeremiah Tilmon.
But what about Dru Smith? Just like he did late last season, he’s proving his value as one of the SEC’s best all-around guards.
