Both South Carolina and Texas had been likely one-seeds ahead of this game. But Texas, which had held the No. 1 overall seed coming into tournament play, will likely lose that spot.

The University of Arkansas men’s basketball team survived and advanced Wednesday at the SEC Tournament. Eleven days after an embarrassing loss at South Carolina, the Razorbacks nearly blew a 20-point lead against the Gamecocks but held on for a 72-68 first-round victory at Bridgestone Arena.

North Carolina was among the "last four" into the NCAA Tournament despite going 1-12 vs. the top competition on their schedule.
