Summary

The #4 Alabama Crimson Tide completed the season sweep of Kentucky Saturday at Coleman Coliseum. Alabama Basketball ended the two game skid and remains a solid 1-Seed.

After Saturday’s action, ESPN’s Joe Lunardi moved Alabama to the third overall 1-seed and moved the Duke Blue Devils up to the second overall 1-seed. We tell you why that could only be temporary.

Is Alabama Guard Mark Sears heating up at just the right time for Alabama?

The #1 Auburn Tigers completed the season sweep of The Georgia Bulldogs in Neville Arena Saturday. Auburn Basketball remains atop the SEC Standings and could clinch the regular season title soon.

How close is Auburn to “clinching” the overall 1-seed? Nobody outside of the NCAA Selection Committee truly knows but we will give our opinion.

The win should keep Auburn as the unanimous AP #1 team later today, which brings us to this difficult question: Has KenPom jumped the shark?

What do the two losses mean for Kentucky Basketball and Georgia Basketball? For one, doomsday may be on the horizon.

Elsewhere in the SEC, The Arkansas Razorbacks got a desperately needed win at The Missouri Tigers. The Oklahoma Sooners got a much needed win against Mississippi State and The Texas Longhorns had a crushing defeat at The South Carolina Gamecocks.

The Tennessee Volunteers got a huge win at the Texas A&M Aggies and The Florida Gators won at the LSU Tigers. The Ole Miss Rebels are in a bit of a funk as the lost at the Vanderbilt Commodores.

We may have seen the best hustle play of the season in college basketball.

If you had an unlimited athletic budget, what would be your top priority? You Alabama Football and Auburn Football fans get ready to spend.

We rank SEC quarterbacks Instagram style.

Alabama’s Kalen DeBoer tells one reporter it “feels different” around Alabama Football right now.

More details on the cancellation of the series between the Tennessee Volunteers and the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Why Tennessee Football and Nebraska Football will not meet.

Stewart Mandel makes our point that the new College Football Playoff proposal by the SEC and the Big Ten really isn’t that crazy at all.

More changes to the NFL kickoff rule: love or hate?

NFL Combine week is underway in Indy:
-The Los Angeles Rams have given quarterback Matthew Stafford permission to talk to other teams.
