Mississippi State's victory over Tennessee in the SEC Tournament Quarterfinal has significant implications on the NCAA Tournament seeding. North Carolina is now positioned to secure the final No. 1 seed, with Houston surpassing UConn in the rankings. Tennessee's loss potentially jeopardizes their chances of a top seed.

Mississippi State leaves absolutely NO DOUBT now with a convincing win over No. 1 Tennessee. Chris Jans has done a terrific job with this team this season. Now it looks like UNC has the inside track to the final No. 1 seed. Arizona also in mix.
Outstanding performance by Mississippi State. Embarrassing no-show by Tennessee that could cost it a No. 1 NCAA seed. However: two teams recently have gone into the NCAAs on a two-game (or longer) losing streak and gone to the Final Four -- UCLA 2021 and South Carolina 2017.

With Tennessee going down in the SEC tournament, a No. 1 seed is there for the taking for UNC. Winning the ACCT would lock it down. (And really, UNC should probably get it, anyway, with a win today).
Tennesee is about to lose to Mississippi State in the SEC Tournament Quarterfinal. This is obviously big for #UNC’s chances to earn a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament.

Mississippi State, which had lost four straight games to park itself squarely on the NCAA bubble, stopped its freefall here in Nashville. Now a chance to lock up a bid tomorrow against Tennessee: https://t.co/QCW6n447X9
FINAL: Mississippi State beats LSU, 70-60. A huge second half may have just solidified the Bulldogs' hopes for an at-large NCAA Tournament bid. In Year 2 under Chris Jans, it appears MSU will again be dancing. https://t.co/VJpGeoVmFq
