Next Years SEC Tournament Question

[trueblujr2]

Since they will be adding Oklahoma and Texas to go to 16 teams, will the Tourney be set up like an NCAA regional with no byes just seeded 1-16? Spread out over 4 days? I would think if that's the case, you would be gunning to play on day 1 as one of the top 4 seeds so you get day two of the tourney off and avoid 3 games in 3 days. Nashville would lose a days worth of people jamming the streets too.

Good question. I haven’t seen that addressed.

Maybe it’s time to just do away with it?

Or keep the double bye and play 4 games on Wednesday?

I don’t think it’s wise as a conference to put your best teams thru a 4 day tournament right before the NCAA.

I believe two games will be added to Wednesday:
9 vs 16
10 vs 15
11 vs 14
12 vs 13

5-8 receive the single byes and 1-4 still receive double byes

I could see this happening. Makes sense.
