Good morning BBN!
Today, the Kentucky Wildcats baseball team begins what hopes to be a long run in the SEC Tournament as the 8-seed.
Up first, they’ll face the 9-seed Alabama Crimson Tide at 5:30 pm ET on the SEC Network. It’s a single-elimination game, and the winner advances to Wednesday to face the top-seeded Florida Gators.
D1 Baseball currently has Kentucky projected as the 9-seed in the NCAA Tournament. A big showing in the SEC Tournament could bump the Cats up to one of the top eight seeds, which means they would host through the Super Regional round.

I don’t blame seniors who have been great college players for wanting to go to the next stage. And we shouldn’t be rooting for them to not be able to make it there.
