December 28, 201015 yr No way UK is a #1 seed this year without Kanter being eligible. If he is ruled eligible, then I can see it being a possibility. The SEC is terrible enough that it's not out of the question...
December 28, 201015 yr The SEC is terrible enough that it's not out of the question... Exactly. Most know UK is in the 10-20 range and not the 1-4. But they would not be the first nor last team to take advantage of a weak conference in order to get a top seed.

December 28, 201015 yr No way UK is a #1 seed this year without Kanter being eligible. If he is ruled eligible, then I can see it being a possibility. What losses do you foresee? I could see: @UofL @Florida @Tennessee @Vanderbilt @Georgia That's a max of 5, which realistically is probably more like 3. So a 28-5 UK team (assuming they win the SEC tournament), couldn't get a #1 seed?
December 28, 201015 yr If UK wins the SEC they should get the #1 seed. This year it's about the equivalent of winning the A10...
December 28, 201015 yr If UK wins the SEC they should get the #1 seed. If they lose another three or more, I don't see it happening even with winning the conference. I believe that Duke, Kansas, Ohio State, and the winner of the Big East will likely be the 1 seeds with the way things look now, but I guess we will see how everything turns out.

So a 28-5 UK team (assuming they win the SEC tournament), couldn't get a #1 seed? I really haven't seen the other SEC teams enough to answer that question. I just know UK is very young, and very suspect against teams with good post play. I find it hard to believe that UK is one of the top 4 teams in the country.
December 29, 201015 yr I'd flat out be thrilled if they end up being the #2 seed in Duke's bracket. Count me in this as well :lol:

December 29, 201015 yr If you look at the state of college basketball........really the top 4 seeds are going to come from the following: Big East Champ, Big Ten Champ, ACC Champ, Big 12 Champ, SEC Champ In my opinion the easiest road to a championship in those 5 conferences is the SEC.........potentially less losses in other words. The ACC probably the 2nd easiest...................... Therefore I think from a record stand point the champion of the Big East Big Ten and Big 12 will nto only have more losses but have more chances of losing in the conference tournament.
