SEC Basketball Tournament 2019: Bracket, Schedule & Scores [Updated]

Getty Tennessee and Kentucky are contenders for both the SEC tournament and March Madness.

The 2019 SEC men’s basketball tournament week is here and serves as an appetizer for March Madness. LSU, Kentucky and Tennessee are three of the top contenders for the conference tournament title.

The Tigers earned the No. 1 seed, edging out the Wildcats in the process. It is not all good news for LSU who will likely be without head coach Will Wade amidst a federal investigation regarding his potential involvement in a pay-for-play scheme. It will be interesting to see what the selection committee will do with the Tigers and their uncertainty at head coach.

*Editors note: Story updated to show LSU won regular-season title outright as opposed to via tiebreaker.

Tennessee came up short for the regular season title, but the Vols are a force to watch in March. Tennessee head coach Rick Barnes believe they will enter the NCAA tournament battle-tested thanks to their schedule.

“Well we do think we are prepared from what we’ve seen,” Barnes explained to ESPN, per Saturday Down South. “We try to prepare our non-league schedule for the SEC and I think we did that but really, this year, you think last year we shared the conference title with five losses. This year, we lose three games and finish second in the league with Kentucky so the league is better than its ever been. It really is. The fact that on any given night, you have to be on top of your game or you are going to get beat.”
