In basketball a loss doesn't really mean anything until March.

The problem the SEC keeps running into is that several of their teams get to 9 or 10 wins in OOC and then fall on their face in conference play. I don't think that will be an issue for Mizzou going forward because they have quality non-con wins. Arkansas, Texas A&M, and Ole Miss all have 10 or more wins already, but I don't think any of them make the NCAA tournament because they all have deep flaws, and the only quality win out of those three thus far is Minnesota.
