The SEC regular season finale is approaching, and the standings are still up in the air. With teams jockeying for position, the picture is far from clear. The road to Hoover and the NCAA Tournament is shaping up to be intense.
Let’s break down the current SEC standings and potential playoff contenders.
Current Standings
Auburn Tigers: 13-1, top-ranked in the SEC. They can clinch the regular-season title with wins in their next two games against Ole Miss and Kentucky.
Alabama Crimson Tide: 12-3, trailing Auburn. If Alabama suffers another loss, Auburn can claim sole possession of the top spot.
Florida Gators: 11-4, 2.5 games behind Auburn. Despite a recent upset loss to Georgia, Florida still holds the head-to-head tiebreaker over Auburn.
Tennessee Volunteers and Missouri Tigers: Tied for fourth with 10-5 records.
Texas A&M Aggies: 9-5, also in contention.
Playoff Picture
The top teams are jockeying for position, with Auburn and Alabama looking strong. However, recent upsets, like Georgia’s win over Florida, have shaken up the standings. Teams like LSU (40-12, 17-10) and Arkansas (41-11, 18-9) are also making their cases for postseason success.
Given the competitive nature of the SEC, the final league play will be crucial in determining the conference champion and playoff participants.
