In SEC history (by number of weeks)…

30- Kentucky (1954-1956)
29- Kentucky (1950-1952)
25- Kentucky (2015-2016)
22- Kentucky (1995-1997)
21- Kentucky (2012-2013)
21- Kentucky (1993-1994)
19- Kentucky (2010)
19- Arkansas (1991-1992)
18- Auburn (2025)
18- Kentucky (1977-1978)
18- Kentucky (1970-1971)

If Auburn can stay in the Top 5 after this week, it will tie the longest streak in SEC history other than Kentucky.

A banner shall be hung in the Auburn gymnasium. There’s plenty of room.

At least the ones we've got aren't covered in dust.

Not really. Kentucky has been a basketball machine for decades and Arkansas was good once.

Yeah, but we’ve got more of them and better ones than you do. Dust or not.

Nice comeback, though.

Once? Muss’ tenure here is better than 99% of your history. Eddie Sutton did a good job here as well.

Arkansas has three Sweet Sixteen banners and two Elite Eight banners that are all newer than Auburn's.

Some of it was old anti SEC bias as well. LSU’s Final Four team in ‘81 should have been ranked top five all year.

Bruce Pearl is searching for his 2nd ever trip to the 2nd weekend of March madness at Auburn.

He’s been at Auburn or this is his 11th year

If he gets out of the first weekend it would be the 2nd time in 11 years……

How many SEC banners are hanging in Bud Walton? And is there any effort at the university to try to preserve those relics?

We don’t hang SEC banners, we hang Final Four and national championship banners.
