SEC Dominance in College Basketball: Auburn Leads the Charge

The SEC continues to dominate college basketball, taking the top three spots in this week's top 25. Auburn remains at the top, thanks to their impressive metrics and 13 Quadrant 1 wins.

Auburn Tigers (22-2)

Auburn's total body of work is superior to other teams. They are No. 1 in the NET, KPI, and ESPN's strength of record. Bruce Pearl tweaked the starting lineup, moving Chad Baker-Mazara to the bench, which could prove strategic.
