So currently we are fourth, sitting behind Auburn, Tennessee and Florida in that order.
We will not catch Auburn as they are 2.5 games ahead and have a cupcake schedule the rest of the way.
Tennessee has a game on us but we own the tiebreaker.
Florida has half a game on us and owns the tiebreaker but has road games left with Tennessee and Alabama, and hosts Auburn and Kentucky. If we take care of business, we won't have to worry about them.
I would say that a 3 seed is probable with an outside shot at a 2 seed, but we might have to win out as Tennessee's schedule is fairly light the rest of the way, so it's hard to see them dropping more than one.
If this team finishes 2nd in the SEC, then Cuonzo Martin is the SEC coach of the year and I don't give a damn what Bruce Pearl did.
Kim's Kore, a Canisius transfer that has been transformed into the potential conference player of the year, and two freshman. One that should still be in high school, and one who has played half the season in foul trouble.
Cuonzo has weathered the loss of MPJ, who he spent an entire offseason building an offense around, two freshman transfers, and had a player suspended.
If we finish 2nd in the SEC, arguably the strongest conference in the nation this year, it will be one of the great coaching jobs I have ever seen. I don't want to put the cart before the horse here, because there's a lot of ball left to be played, but man, what a job by Coach Zo.
