 The Florida Gators and the Mississippi State Bulldogs could meet in the second round of the SEC Tournament in a game that could decide which bubble team gets into the NCAA Tournament. (AP Photo) With tournament season beginning on Thursday with the first round of the SEC Tournament, three SEC basketball teams find themselves squarely on the bubble for an at-large NCAA Tournament berth.
Those three teams are Florida (20-11, 9-7), Mississippi State (21-10, 9-7) and Ole Miss (21-9, 9-7). The Gators are the closest to making the NCAA Tournament field, while Ole Miss has a slight edge over Mississippi State heading into the SEC Tournament.
Florida would meet Mississippi State in the second round of the tournament if they can make it past Auburn in the first round of the tournament. The winner of that game would be in great shape to earn an at-large NCAA Tournament berth.
