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 Sooners are trying to surge into the NCAA tournament. ESPN’s Joe Lunardi had them as a “first four out” team going into tonight. Another win tomorrow could do wonders for their résumé.

Nijel Pack’s 20 points leads the way in OU’s dominant victory (though Pack left the game late with an injury and didn’t return). The SEC No. 11 seed Sooners advance to the quarterfinals, where they’ll face No. 3 Arkansas tomorrow.

And now Oklahoma’s leading scorer is down on the court after a rough collision with Texas A&M’s Marcus Hill. Pack returns to the bench with a towel on his nose.

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.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) – The Nashville Electric Service reports it is preparing for the potential of widespread outages during Sunday’s storms across its service area.
NES said it’s monitoring the forecasts for Middle Tennessee and has crews prepared to respond to outages caused by the incoming storms.
“Predicted wind gusts as high as 75 mph can bring down vegetation, like trees or branches located near power lines,” NES said. “When vegetation gets entangled in NES electrical equipment, those power lines often snap and fall to the ground.”
NES said it has 380 lineworkers prepared to respond to any power outages caused by the incoming storms.
“Since January, crews have assessed and trimmed over 2,800 miles of additional lines to address overhanging and storm-damaged trees that pose risk of outages. Outages involving downed lines and broken poles take more time to restore,” NES said.
First Alert Weather Day: Severe storms Sunday night
The utility company is urging customers to report outages by texting “OUT” to 637797 (mobile phone must be tied to account), calling 615-234-0000, logging into My Account on www.NESPower.com or reporting it directly on the outage map at www.nespower.com/outages.
“Most importantly, if you see a downed power line, assume it’s live, stay away (at least 35 feet) and call 9-1-1 immediately,” NES said.
The utility company has shared the following tips for customers during severe weather:

The Tennessee Volunteers Baseball program began SEC play in a major way on Friday night with a win over the No. 8-ranked Georgia Bulldogs. Here’s everything you need to know about game two.
The Tennessee Volunteers defeated the Georgia Bulldogs (7-4) in Athens, Georgia on Friday night. It looked like we were going to have quite a pitching duel as Tennessee starter Teeghan Kuhns and Georgia starter Joey Volchko looked to be poised to work deep into this contest.
Kuhns worked clean all the way until the bottom of the fifth when he allowed 4 runs and gave up the lead. However, runs in the top of the sixth, seventh, and eighth innings from the Volunteers’ lineup were the ultimate difference maker in this contest.
Stone Lawless’s home run in the 8th inning felt like the final nail in the coffin for the Bulldogs on Friday night. Only followed quickly by Manny Marin’s solo shot that cleared the trees in the outfield of Foley Field.
Now, the Vols take the field against Saturday night to look to win the first of their SEC Series slate against what was one of the hottest lineups in college baseball. Entering Friday night’s league-opener, Georgia only had one hitter who was batting under .300. It’s been the hottest lineup in out-of-conference play.
It’s only the second time all season that this Georgia lineup has been held to four or fewer runs. It was a collaborative pitching effort as well, but especially by the bullpen. If Saturday’s success is going to look like Friday night’s, a scoreless performance from the bullpen again would go a long way.
Additionally, the bats have to remain powerful. The three homers from Friday night were all crucial in not only driving in runs, but also in the overall momentum of the ballpark. The Tennessee dugout brought the energy because of it as well.
It was a huge performance out of the bullpen from left-handed pitcher, Brandon Arvidson, who threw 4.2 scoreless innings and struck out 4 Georgia hitters as well.
A reminder that there are currently 10 other SEC Teams alongside the Vols ranked inside the Top-25 D1 Baseball rankings. Six of which, the Vols will exchange blows with in the weekend series throughout this 2026 schedule. They have their work cut out for them in 2026, this weekend being just the beginning.
