NCAA Tournament journeys are about to start for the SEC teams who made The Big Dance.

The official tipoff times and TV info for each and every game in the First Round were announced courtesy of the NCAA following Selection Sunday. Mississippi State, Texas A&M, South Carolina, Kentucky, Alabama, Auburn, Tennessee, and Florida all made the NCAA Tournament.

The SEC Tournament ended in a way that not many people thought it would. Tennessee, Alabama, and Kentucky were all beaten in their 1st game of the tourney. Florida and Auburn were the last 2 teams standing in the SEC on Sunday. The Tigers took home the hardware after an 86-67 win over the Gators.

Mississippi State gets things started for the SEC on Thursday. The Bulldogs will be taking on Michigan State in Charlotte, North Carolina. South Carolina is the next SEC game after that, taking on Oregon in Pittsburgh.

The rest of the games on Thursday will be in the evening slate with Kentucky taking on Oakland. Tennessee closes out the day with a night game against Saint Peter’s in Charlotte.

Auburn vs. Yale will be the 1st game on Friday. The Tigers will have to travel to Spokane, Washington for their game. Many Auburn fans were angry about the team’s seeding after winning the SEC Tournament. Not too long after that game starts, Florida will tipoff against either Colorado or Boise State depending on which team wins that First Four play-in matchup.

One of the more intriguing SEC games of the First Round will be Texas A&M-Nebraska. Trev Alberts departed Nebraska on Wednesday to take the AD job at Texas A&M and Husker fans were not happy.

Alabama will have the last SEC game of the opening weekend of March Madness. The Crimson Tide will be taking on 13-seed College of Charleston.
