The Missouri Tigers have struggled on the court all season long. The only hope the Tigers have to make it anywhere near the NCAA Tournament is to win the SEC Tournament.

Missouri fans may not have a lot of hope in that because the Tigers are 0-12 in the conference, and 8-17 overall. The Tigers will be the lowest seed going into the tournament and will have a lot of work to do in order to make it into March Madness.

The SEC Tournament will be held in Nashville, Tennessee at Bridgestone Arena from March 13 through March 17. All of the games will be streamed on SEC Network with selected games on ESPN.
