Auburn basketball No. 10 seed in latest USA TODAY Bracketology

Auburn basketball is hanging on to a lower seed in USA TODAY Sports’ latest March Madness bracketology amid its four-game losing streak.

USA TODAY Sports lists Auburn as a No. 10 seed in its latest release, pairing with No. 7-seeded Wisconsin in the South Regional. The hypothetical matchup would take place in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with the winner facing either No. 2-seeded Houston or No. 10-seeded Tennessee-Martin in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

USA TODAY Sports projects the SEC to send 10 teams to the NCAA Tournament, which is the second-highest conference representation behind the Big Ten, which is forecasted to have 11 tournament teams. The ACC and Big 12 are next with eight representatives apiece. Alabama joins Auburn in the South Regional, according to the latest projections. Texas A&M, Tennessee, and Kentucky are forecasted to play in the West Regional on the same side of the projected March Madness bracket as Auburn. Vanderbilt, Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Arkansas are the other SEC teams expected to join the NCAA Tournament field.

Auburn basketball has six regular-season games remaining, beginning Wednesday night at Mississippi State. The Tigers will face three more Quad 1 teams this season in Kentucky, Oklahoma, and Alabama, which could boost their resume, should Auburn win those games.
