Using hypotheticals when discussing sports is something I like to stray away from. However, “if” the SEC Tournament started today, the Kentucky Wildcats would be the fourth seed. Considering where John Calipari’s team was a week ago, that’s a massive improvement.
Less than one week ago, Kentucky had lost four straight games and looked to be heading downhill. However, after putting the clamps on sensational freshman Collin Sexton and the rest of a quality Alabama team, the Wildcats traveled to Fayetteville, Arkansas and demolished the Arkansas Razorbacks in a matchup where Kentucky was a clear underdog.
Sure, the Wildcats will have to show everyone, even themselves, that they can play this way consistently. But why shouldn’t we believe them?

I am hoping they have turned the corner and are n ready to make a serious run toward winning basketball games. If they play like they did at Arkansas, they can win out the last three games and go into the SEC tournament with one of the top 4 seeds, that is very important to winning the SEC tourney.

We probably will have to win out to get a 3 or 4 seed. Right now we are #5 due to losing to both FL and MO. But if we beat them in our final 3 games we would be 1-1 against both of them but they would drop below us by losing to us. That would leave only Aub and TN ahead of us. We need these 3 games to keep from playing on the opening day of the tourney.
