Ole Miss Sparks Cinderella Run as Bracketology Shifts in Conference Week

Ole Miss, the No. 15 seed in the SEC Tournament, completed a three-game, no-trail run by beating Alabama and staying alive for an NCAA bid with two more wins. The piece also tracks Friday’s bracketology moves: Oklahoma drops from at-large contention after a loss to Arkansas; Saint Louis and VCU advance in the Atlantic 10; Auburn’s bubble hopes fade; Illinois falls from a No. 2 seed after an OT loss; Purdue nudges back into the No. 2 seed mix; Seton Hall is eliminated; Arizona stages a late comeback to remain in the top seed discussion; Tennessee fades after a loss to Vanderbilt; and Florida remains on track for a potential No. 1 seed.
