Tennessee was a slight favorite entering the SEC Tournament title game on Sunday, but it didn't matter to Kentucky. The Wildcats pulled off a hard-fought 77-72 victory to win the SEC title behind 29 points from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
CBS Sports bracketology expert Jerry Palm had Tennessee as a No. 3 seed and Kentucky as a No. 5 entering the game, but it's easy to imagine Kentucky moving up now.
