ESPN bracketologist Joe Lunardi predicts eight SEC teams will be in the NCAA Tournament, second behind Big Ten.
Only three teams are predicted to receive a top-four seed, while the majority float between the 7-10 seed positions. Despite the current three-game skid Arkansas is on, Linardi still believes they are worthy of an eighth seed.
If Lunardi’s prediction is correct, they will join a group of SEC teams to make the NCAA Tournament with a losing SEC record.
With the regular season ending, five teams in the SEC will likely be invited to the dance without another win on their resume. To avoid confusion, Arkansas is not a part of this list.
So let’s see which SEC teams will most likely make it to the NCAA Tournament.
