With just days left until Selection Sunday and March Madness, it’s crunch time in conference tournaments around the country.
In the SEC, it’s all about Florida and whether the Gators can run it back with another national title. The Gators struggled to start the season and then even fell out of the national rankings completely by early January. But now, this team feels like a completely different story. The Gators ended the season on an 11-game win streak and their first regular-season SEC title since 2014.

The last SEC tournament tame of the night featured No. 6 seed Texas A&M vs. 11 seed Oklahoma.
The Sooners likely need a win tonight and possibly another one or two after that to fight their way into the NCAA tournament field.

Ole Miss once again pulls off a close upset of Georgia, this time in the SEC tournament to set up a clash with No. 2 seed Alabama in the quarterfinals. AJ Storr posted a team-high 19 points off the bench for Ole Miss, while Georgia shot 35.4% as a team.
The Rebels never trailed and led by as much as 23, then narrowly avoided disaster.

Tyler Perry gets the game-deciding rebound after Georgia intentionally misses the second free throw. Looks like Ole Miss is going to pull this out.

Hoo boy. Ole Miss fouls… right before Jordan Ross went for the halfcourt shot. Georgia (naturally) wanted three free throws there, but they only get two.
