With the update this morning, KenPom has once again projected the SEC to be the best conference in college basketball! Coming off a historic year, today we preview the SEC for the 2025-2026 season. This year, it looks like the more traditional powers of the conference will be the teams to beat. Mark Pope's Kentucky Wildcats, Todd Golden's Florida Gators, John Calipari's Arkansas Razorbacks, Rick Barnes's Tennessee Volunteers and Nate Oats's Alabama Crimson Tide look to challenge to be the best in conference. We talk about the biggest storylines in SEC basketball this year, including a shift in roster building and new coaches Sean Miller, Bucky McMillian, and Steven Pearl. We talk SEC Player of the Year candidates Otega Oweh, Josh Hubbard, and Alex Condon. Will this be sophomore breakout year for Karter Knox, Tyler Tanner, and Somto Cyril? Will Nate Ament, Darius Acuff Jr. or Jasper Johnson have an incredible freshman year? Finally, the non-conference schedule is loaded! That's today on the Hoops Southbound Show!
