Alabama is in line for its 1st-ever No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament after a comfortable win over Texas A&M in the SEC Tournament final on Sunday afternoon in Nashville. Not only that, but the Crimson Tide are now projected as the No. 1 overall seed in the field.
Following the game, the league announced its all-tournament team, and 3 Crimson Tide players received nods: Charles Bediako, Jahvon Quinerly, and Brandon Miller. Miller was also named the tournament’s most valuable player.
In the final, Bediako, Quinerly, and Miller combined for 57 of Alabama’s 82 points. Miller led all scorers with 22 points while pulling down 12 rebounds, going 9-of-10 from the free-throw line despite a 5-of-20 day from the floor. Quinerly and Beidako pitched in 22 and 12 points, respectively, with Bediako credited with a game-high 13 rebounds and 5 blocks before fouling out.
Missouri’s D’Moi Hodge, Vanderbilt’s Ezra Manjon, and Texas A&M’s Wade Taylor IV were the other 3 all-tournament team honorees.
