glad to see my Gamecocks receiving increasing amounts of recognition and respect from you all! this week will be critical for us in determining how firmly we will compete for the SEC title; our game at Auburn, in particular, will be incredibly impactful for both us and the Tigers

Carolina at 2 behind a team that they beat on their own court, and is currently leading the conference with 7 straight wins…while that Tennessee team just got blown out…what a joke! Give a break. Carolina has one of the best records in the nation and currently leads Tennessee by 2 games in the conference.

South Carolina should be number 1 coming from a vol fan

[curlyqv]

Fun fact, because South Carolina is ranked 45th in the Net rankings, Auburn winning at home won't count as a quad one win, as a home win needs to be top 30 Net. If I'm wrong, please correct me but I do think this is the case

Texas AM should be number #1 instead of 8th

I’m confused on how Bama can be ahead of Auburn THIS week. Is this really a weekly power rankings or is this a Saturday game power rankings?

I have no issue with auburn at 4, as I have nothing to say to back them up anymore… but it seems like all forms of media give Tennessee an absurd benefit of the doubt. They can get stomped and it never seems to matter. They can lose at home, on the road, etc.. they never fall in the polls either. It happens every single year. Come tourney time y’all will all have them in the final 4, and they won’t get past the sweet 16 at best.

No, Auburn has not put Up road wins consistently, but who the heck has other than South Carolina

[zachjustice]

27:45 Why are we not talking about how South Carolina is a different team now than the start of the year. They have a totally new team this year than last. The team has continually improved over the year with chemistry, offensive sets, and defensive identity. It’s unfair to use the early games to weigh down who they are now and what they can potentially be.

CMB had no “tune-up” games. His comeback was in the SEC part of season.

[poloregal]

You have to respect South Carolina. Stop being surprised.

[CockyGaming]

The disconnect is coming from Carolina not playing a huge scoring kind of basketball. The efficiency is low. It also doesn’t help that the good teams that Carolina beat, ie UK UTenn and such, keep losing.

[jayedwards]

Ole Miss sits behind two teams they have beaten—Florida 105-89 and Texas A&M, on their court. Big game at Kentucky Tuesday . Kentucky very motivated. Would be a season-changing win for OM.

Auburn just spanked Bama yet… lol
This is a joke😂😂😂

[davidtalley]

Tennessee at #1 is laughable. Alabama auburn South Carolina top 3 in any order.

[Chungo]

The Tennessee excuse making is confusing. I know it’s tough power ranking teams when many of them lose… cmon guys. “Perfect storm” excuse for TN but not for AU? Same outcome after the first Bama game. Emotional games followed by desperate, talented road teams and you’ll probably lose

No excuses. auburn got WAXED by state and Florida. But idk if my outlook on Auburn has really changed. Other than confirming Aden Holloway is dumpster fire right now

[aaronslaton]

This is so disrespectful to the number 1 team and soon to be SEC Champs the Alabama Crimson Tide.

[joemother]

How is Tennessee above Alabama or SC after getting blown by sucky and sorry A&M? BTW, Kentucky is not a strong win at this point and they're 2-2 in the past 4 games. Should be 1. Alabama 2. South Car 3.Tennessee

[dustinjones]

These guys have there fav teams in mind when they do these so they are not true power rankings having tenn as #1 is a joke

[SamuelSmith]

I get Kentucky is struggling but if we had to pick the SEC team to win the national championship it would be them. All comes down to does Cal play Reed Rob and Reeves together and do they want to play Defense.
