6. Mississippi (13-10, 4-5). Last Week: 6

The Rebels’ three-game winning streak was halted by Vanderbilt Saturday. But Ole Miss still has an outside shot at stealing an NCAA berth if they can get to 10 wins and get to the SEC Tournament finals.

7. Kentucky (16-7, 5-3). Last Week: 4
 
Kentucky has, without a doubt, been a better team than Mississippi over the course of the year, but they certainly aren’t playing like it right now. They looked helpless against Mississippi St.

8. Vanderbilt (15-8, 4-5). Last Week: 11

The Commodores’ victory over Mississippi Saturday was their best conference result of the year. The season’s not over yet in Nashville.

9. Auburn (14-9, 3-5). Last Week: 9

Ditto for the Tigers, who stunned Tennessee with a last-second layup on Saturday. Auburn showed they can score against the Vols—Now they need to start playing some defense.

10. Alabama (13-10, 3-6). Last Week: 8

Still no road wins for the Crimson Tide, who look to be in the middle of a lost season at this point. They kept it close at Vandy but were easily handled by LSU Sunday.

11. Arkansas (13-8, 1-7). Last Week: 10

Arkansas looked like the Razorbacks of non-conference play against Tennessee, but couldn’t quite pull out the victory. If they can somehow get to .500 or better in conference the wins over Oklahoma and Texas will become relevant again, but it’s hard to see that happening.

12. Georgia (9-14, 0-8). Last Week: 12

The Bulldogs are still searching for that elusive first SEC win. Tennessee and Florida are on the docket for this week, so it may take a while.
