What’s at Stake?

Every conference tournament champion secures an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament, making these games a last-chance opportunity for teams on the bubble. Meanwhile, even those with a tournament spot locked in are battling for the best possible seeding—because the difference between a 3-seed and a 6-seed could mean an easier path to the Final Four or an early exit at the hands of a hungry underdog.

And speaking of underdogs, this is where the magic happens. Cinderella stories are born in these conference tournaments, as teams outside the Power 5 fight to steal bids and shake up the bracket before Selection Sunday.

So whether you’re scouting for your bracket, rooting for a longshot, or just soaking in the drama, buckle up—it’s going to be a wild ride.
