The bracket is set for what will almost certainly be a raucous SEC Tournament in Nashville, as one of the toughest leagues in college basketball history will bring 16 teams to go five rounds to determine its champion.

We are officially done with regular-season college basketball and have reached the postseason. Each conference tournament is underway or auto-bids have already been given out. Even just typing out “auto-bids” is giving me goosebumps.

But it won't be easy. Surging Xavier has been the best team in the Big East since Feb. 1, per Bart Torvik. Sean Miller's crew is squarely on the bubble entering the Big East Tournament, but a quarterfinals win over fourth-seeded Marquette would go a long way in solidifying Xavier's at-large bid.
