After a successful regular season, Tennessee Lady Vols Basketball is ready to tear up its opponents in the SEC Tournament.

Tennessee Lady Vols Basketball is getting ready to take on the rest of the SEC in the SEC Tournament. The road won’t be easy if they want to win an SEC Championship either, but it’s achievable.

The Lady Vols have secured the 6-seed in the tournament and will face either Ole Miss or Missouri in their first game of the tournament. After that, the Lady Vols will face 3-seed Kentucky and most likely 2-seed Mississippi State after that.

The Lady Vols finished with a 20-9 record and 10-6 in the SEC after some struggles down the stretch. That didn’t stop Tennessee from capping off the season on a positive note, and a win against Vanderbilt sparked three straight wins to finish the season.

It looks like as of right now that the Lady Vols are in the NCAA Tournament, but they can’t flop in the SEC Tournament, or all of that could change. They need to beat Ole Miss or Missouri first, and if they can beat Kentucky, then that would almost guarantee a spot in the tournament.

If the Lady Vols can’t beat Kentucky, then they might have enough to stay in the tournament field, but the more wins, the better.
