NCAA Womens Basketball: Alabama at South Carolina
South Carolina celebrates winning the SEC regular season title. | Jeff Blake-USA TODAY Sports

No. 1 South Carolina has sewn up the regular season SEC title, while No. 9 LSU and Ole Miss are poised to secure double byes in the SEC Tournament. Will Tennessee or Alabama earn the No. 4 seed?

Head coach Dawn Staley and No. 1 South Carolina have signed, sealed and delivered an eighth SEC regular season championship to Columbia. In their final two games, South Carolina is not so much competing against Arkansas and Tennessee—but against history.

The historical markers on the line for the Gamecocks include:

  • undefeated regular season for the second-straight year
  • undefeated in conference play for the fourth time in program history
  • 47-consecutive SEC wins
  • 31-consecutive road wins
  • 55-consecutive wins over unranked opponents

Beyond South Carolina, the order of the SEC’s top four—the teams that will earn a double bye to the quarterfinals of the conference tournament—is undetermined. But, barring some craziness, there is a pretty clear outline of how things will shake out.

No. 9 LSU should claim the No. 2 seed, setting themselves up for a rematch with South Carolina in the final of the SEC Tournament. The Lady Tigers, however, have shown themselves susceptible to slow starts against lesser opponents. LSU should crush Georgia and Kentucky, the 13th and 12th teams in the conference standings, finishing the season with eight-straight wins and looking fearsome ahead of the SEC and NCAA Tournaments.

Likewise, it will be a disappointment if Ole Miss does not finish third in the conference. The Rebels appear to be peaking at the right time, something they can further prove with dominating wins at Kentucky and over Arkansas. That’d give the Rebels six-straight wins.

The fourth spot in the standings—and the final double bye in the SEC Tournament—is where things get a bit more interesting, with Tennessee and Alabama both in contention for the favored No. 4 seed. Tennessee currently owns the edge, but, as the Lady Vols close out the season against the Gamecocks in Columbia, it seems safe to assume that they will add at least one more loss to their ledger. On Thursday, Tennessee hosts Texas A&M, a team that beat the Lady Vols in College Station in mid-January. So Alabama, which defeated Tennessee and thus owns the tiebreaker, remains very much alive for No. 4. Bama meets Florida on Thursday before ending the regular season at Texas A&M. It will be the Tide’s first matchup with both teams.

Before the final week of the regular season tips off, here’s where things stand in the SEC:

  1. No. 1 South Carolina (27-0, 14-0)
  2. No. 9 LSU Lady Tigers (24-4, 11-3)
  3. Ole Miss Rebels (20-7, 10-4)
  4. Tennessee Lady Vols (16-10, 9-5)
  5. Alabama Crimson Tide (21-8, 8-6)
  6. Vanderbilt Commodores (20-8, 7-7)
  7. Mississippi State Bulldogs (20-9, 7-7)
  8. Texas A&M Aggies (18-9, 6-8)
  9. Auburn Tigers (17-10, 6-8)
  10. Arkansas Razorbacks (18-11, 6-8)
  11. Florida Gators (14-12, 5-9)
  12. Kentucky Wildcats (11-17, 4-10)
  13. Georgia Bulldogs (12-15, 3-11)
  14. Missouri Tigers (11-16, 2-12)
