Sporting News on MSNHow many SEC teams will make the Final Four? Conference can break Big East's legendary recordHow many SEC teams will make the Final Four? That's the leading question heading into the Elite Eight. The SEC - which sent a record 14 teams to the 2025 NCAA men's basketball tournament - has a chance to challenge the all-time record for most Final Four teams from one conference.
Since the first round, when six of the 14 SEC teams in the men's tournament were eliminated, the conference is 11-4.
After setting the men's record for most teams in the NCAA tournament field, here's how the Southeastern Conference is faring.
The SEC set an NCAA Tournament record Sunday with seven teams punching their tickets to this year's Sweet 16, one-upping the previous record of six set by the ACC in the 2016 NCAA Tournament. Ole Miss' 91-78 win over Iowa State pushed the league past the finish line after a banner first weekend on the heels of a banner regular season.
The SEC’s surprise Sweet 16 team is Arkansas, which only two months ago was 0-5 in league play and firmly outside the NCAA tournament picture. John Calipari’s Razorbacks have since won 12 of 17 games, culminating with Saturday’s thrilling upset of the best St. John’s team in at least two decades.
Seven SEC teams qualified for the Sweet 16, a new NCAA Tournament record. Here's how the conference has performed in 2025 March Madness.
