Well let's just leave off the West and we should be one of the best in the country.

exactly, everyone in the East should make it into the tourney, but no one in the West should.

South Carolina isn't making the 'AAs. They won't even come close. Vanderbilt and Georgia are also far from locks.

Why so much love for the big east? They have done terrible the last couple of years

Totally agree...

but I think Tennessee and Kentucky are top 10 teams... that definitely helps against the other power conferences!

Our conference rank will lie on the performance of Vandy and UGA!

UT, FL, Kentucky have chance at top 10. Vandy also will make the tourney. GA Maybe....out west, there is Miss State who could make the tourney. DOn't know if anyone else has a chance. Maybe Arkansas.

I would say it is lie this next year.

Big East
ACC
Big 10 (Formerly big 12)
SEC
Big 11
Pac 12

I'd say Georgia will be greatly improved this year....UK and UT are pretty much locks for the Tourney.....USCjr should be able to make it as well.....

[TennesseeFan07]

Towards the bottom. Of course, half of the people on here will rave about the SEC being so great.

I don't really see how you could put the Big X or XII over the SEC right now....Big X has OSU, Big XII has KU and the 2nd UT.....that's about it.

Big XII- Kansas, Texas, Texas a&m, Oklahoma, Baylor, Oklahoma St., Mizzou and KSU are nothing to scoff at....

Big X- OSU, Purdue, Wisconsin, Michigan St., Indiana, Minnesota and Illinois.

SEC- Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, Vandy, Miss. St.

I listed all the teams that probably have a shot at the NCAA tourney this year. As you can see, the other leagues are deeper than ours and I really don't now how to sugarcoat it....

I thought about those teams (minus Mizzou), but are they really going to be relevant? We just didn't see much from them except for Baylor, but I'd be surprised if they did as well this season.

KSU did extremely well last year. Oklahoma had to rebuild a bit with the loss of Griffin and I never can count out Oklahoma State. Baylor will also do well again this year.

I just don't see us stacking up to the Big XII or Big X this year. The SEC west is just so weak...

[Chris4Vols22]

I'm no expert outside of the SEC, but I would put Tex AM, OkSU, Mizzou, KSU, Indiana, Minnesota, Illinois, and maybe OU on the same level as Florida/Miss. St....Depth-wise, I suppose you have a point; quality-wise, I may disagree. But like I said, I'm no expert.
