Here is a list of all the games that the top 4 teams in the SEC have played against each other (home teams listed first):<br /><br />01/15: Kentucky 107 - 79 Tennessee<br />01/22: Auburn 80 - 71 Kentucky<br />02/08: Arkansas 80 - 76 Auburn (OT)<br />02/15: Tennessee 76 - 63 Kentucky<br />02/19: Arkansas 58 - 48 Tennessee<br />02/26: Arkansas 75 - 73 Kentucky<br />02/26: Tennessee 67 - 62 Auburn<br /><br />As you will see, the home team has won every time. In fact, home teams have won 64 percent of the time in the SEC, the highest percentage of any conference in D-1. UK was very unfortunate that its only games against Auburn and Arkansas were both on the road. On the other hand, Arkansas has been lucky that it has yet to play one of the other SEC powers away from home.GoHeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122010542579322600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-3328425387397174152022-02-26T20:48:28.294-05:002022-02-26T20:48:28.294-05:00In what will probably be its last season in the Oh...In what will probably be its last season in the Ohio Valley Conference, the Murray State Racers cap an 18-0 run through the league. The Racers beat SEMO in Cape Girardeau 70-68 to end the regular season. Murray State is 28-2 overall, and 18-0 in the OVC. They will now head to Evansville for the OVC Tournament, and my guess is that a significant proportion of the Jackson Purchase will go up there as well.GoHeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122010542579322600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-7482167156035868812022-02-22T23:33:14.267-05:002022-02-22T23:33:14.267-05:00You'd probably need to have at least one more ...You'd probably need to have at least one more guard. Davion Mintz wears number 10, so you could bring in Dirk Minniefield or Keith Bogans. And Jacob Toppin wears number 0, so you could bring in De'Aaron Fox.
