Kentucky Basketball will, without a doubt, be the youngest team in the SEC.

John Calipari will set out to take his Kentucky Basketball team to the top. But, this season, things have a little different feel. The Kentucky Basketball Wildcats will be getting a great haul of talent added to the team. The problem is, there wasn’t much of a team left behind to add to.

With eight freshman making their way to Lexington, and just two juniors in addition to four sophomores, Calipari has some challenges ahead. Needless to say, there isn’t any question about whether or not these kids can play. The big concern is that whether or not these freshman play good enough to run the table in the SEC.

The season seems like light years away, but we’re going to speculate the future here. The SEC looks to be much improved in the college basketball world. Here’s our picks for what the SEC awards will look like once the conference season comes to an end.
