Just a few games into SEC conference play and there have been quite a few surprises. Florida and Auburn are off to perfect starts, while Texas A&M, who was 11-1 in non-conference play, is the only team without a win. The Aggies fell to 0-3 this week with a rough 83-66 loss at home to Florida and another home defeat at the hands of LSU. A handful of injuries have slowed down A&M, but this is a talented team that should be able to rebound from this tough stretch and compete in the SEC.
