SEC Basketball fans, we have finally reached the start of the 2022-23 season. Yes, after a long offseason, the 2022-23 SEC Basketball season is officially set to tipoff this upcoming Monday night, November 7.

One of college basketball’s toughest conferences, the SEC has continued to evolve on the hardwood, with this upcoming season being arguably one of the most intriguing in recent years. Why you ask? Well, it’s quite simple – there are anywhere from 4-5 teams who could potentially win the regular season title this season.

Add to that the fact that the SEC could also potentially send anywhere from 7-9 teams to the NCAA Tournament this season, and it’s clear why this season should be a strong one for the conference.

So, before the season officially begins Monday night, we would like to introduce our SEC Basketball power rankings.
