The 2025 SEC Tournament bracket will soon be available as the 2024-25 college basketball regular season enters the home stretch with March Madness a couple of weeks away.
The end of Selection Sunday marks the beginning of March Madness, the 68-team college basketball tournament that culminates with the NCAA Tournament Championship.
2025 SEC Tournament To Be Held At Bridgestone Arena
The 2025 SEC Tournament takes place at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. The conference tournament begins with four first-round matchups on March 12 and concludes with the championship game on March 16.
Each of the 16 teams in the conference are set to participate in the SEC Tournament. The top 4 seeds will earn a double-bye to the quarterfinals, and seeds 5-8 will earn a bye to the second round.
Ties will be broken by head-to-head results, W-L records against the top-seed, and going on down until the tie is broken, and finally a coin toss — or a drawing of lots if three or more teams are involved.
The SEC Tournament champion secures an automatic bid into the 68-team field for the 2025 NCAA Tournament, which includes 31 automatic qualifiers and 37 at-large bids.
Of course, the full NCAA Tournament field will be finalized on Sunday, March 16, and the bracket will be revealed during the March Madness Selection Show on CBS.
The current SEC standings are featured below, along with the full schedule for the 2025 SEC Tournament.
