UK will not fall out of the Top 10 all season. The SEC cannot knock them off the perch with the likes of Miss St, Ole Miss, UGA, UT, Bama, aTm, Arkansas, Mizzou, or even LSU with Simmons. UF? Maybe can give them trouble with their guard play. They have an RPI rating of #8 right now. But I just don't see them taking down UK. Vandy will give them a little trouble because of their size and shooting. SC could bite them since they usually give UK a rough time in Columbia. Auburn is still a work in progress with Pearl trying to get his recruits. But he hasn't near the quality of guys Calipari does. The conference has gotten a little better than last year. But overall, the SEC is still pretty weak.
UK will need a lot more from their guards because they're way too soft in the middle to make a serious run this season and .... Karl Anthony Towns is not walking through that door.
