Vols chase SEC tournament double-bye with Vanderbilt showdown
Tennessee can clinch an SEC Tournament double-bye with a win over Vanderbilt, potentially earning the No. 3 seed if Arkansas loses; even a loss could yield a double-bye with the right Missouri/Kentucky outcomes. The SEC Tournament begins March 11 in Nashville, and the Vols would start play March 13 if they earn the bye. Tennessee has earned six double-byes under Rick Barnes, including the 2022 title.
