The SEC Tournament seedings are starting to become a bit more clear. Alabama will be either the 4th or 5th seed. That may not seem like a big difference, but it is the difference between getting a bye and avoiding the risk for disaster, and having to face a South Carolina team that is on the verge of falling out of the RPI top 200--a scenario that would put the Tide's NCAA Tournament resume at serious risk while offering no upside whatsover. In fact, even beating South Carolina would likely make the Tide's RPI go down and would be a huge hit to Bama's SOS numbers. The bottom line is simple: getting the 4th seed rather than the 5th is unequivocally a good thing for Alabama.

There are four possible scenarios that will decide Bama's seeding position....

Vandy and Bama just needs to win, just that simple.  ;)

Funny how playing Kentucky in the Semis won't hurt Bama's RPI much (a win would be big), but the road to get there could make a difference.
