Tuscaloosa, AL

There's only one remaining unbeaten team in the SEC, and that might just be because that team didn’t play this past weekend.

It was a wild and chaotic Saturday in the SEC, as previously unbeaten Top 10 teams Alabama, Tennessee and Missouri all went down - two of them to unranked opponents.

As we enter Week 7 of the 2024 season, Texas is pretty clearly at the top of the conference's mountain, with the rest one giant shrug emoji.

Alabama basketball coach Nate Oats lamented his team’s defense throughout the 2023-24 regular season.

And rightfully so; it was a far cry from the No. 3 ranking in KenPom's defensive efficiency from the season prior.

This past season's defense was closer to being ranked around 100; it finished No. 111.
