Arkansas basketball SEC Tournament prediction: How far will the Razorbacks go?
Arkansas basketball will arrive in Nashville for the SEC Tournament facing the stiffest of possible challenges.
The Razorbacks (15-16) are the No. 12 seed and must win five games in five days to have any hope of reaching this year's NCAA Tournament. Without a conference tournament championship, Arkansas will miss the national dance for the first time in the Eric Musselman era.

Arkansas basketball SEC Tournament prediction
Arkansas 83, Vanderbilt 77: The Razorbacks missed too many wide-open shots in the regular-season matchup, but they will make enough jumpers to get their revenge over the Commodores.
Arkansas 77, South Carolina 73: After hanging around with conference elites Kentucky and Alabama in back-to-back weeks, the Hogs will finally get a signature SEC victory this season with an upset of the Gamecocks.
Auburn 85, Arkansas 77: The run ends against the Tigers. Arkansas doesn't have an answer for Johni Broome, and an Auburn team filled with depth that's coming off a double-bye ends the Hogs' season.
