On Tuesday, he released his latest projections for which teams would make the field of 68 on Selection Sunday.
As you can see below, he had 7 SEC teams making the field, with Auburn leading the way as a No. 1 seed. An eighth SEC team, Texas A&M, was among the “Next Four Out” in his projections:
- Auburn — No. 1 seed (Midwest)
- LSU — No. 3 seed (South)
- Alabama — No. 4 seed (East)
- Kentucky — No. 5 seed (South)
- Tennessee — No. 6 seed (West)
- Florida — No. 11 seed (East)
- Mississippi State — No. 11 seed (Midwest)
- Texas A&M — Next Four Out
With 7 teams in the field, the SEC ties the Big Ten, Big East and Big 12 for most teams from 1 conference in the tournament field.
We’ll see how Lunardi’s projections change on Friday.
