Tennessee Volunteers at Auburn Tigers
· SEC Tournament - SemifinalNo. 8 Tennessee downs No. 3 Auburn 70-65 to reach SEC Tournament championship game

The fourth-seeded Volunteers (27-6) got revenge both for their Jan. 25 loss at Auburn and their 2019 loss to the Tigers in this tournament's title game.
Tennessee will play fourth-ranked Florida, a 104-82 winner over No. 5 Alabama, on Sunday for the tournament title. The Vols and the winner of that semifinal likely wind up with No. 1 seeds in the NCAA Tournament — only fitting for the nation’s best league.
Jordan Gainey added 15 points for the Vols, and Chaz Lanier had 12.
The Tigers (28-5) go home losers of three of their last four games.
SEC player of the year Johni Broome led Auburn with 23 points, Miles Kelly added 13 and Denver Jones had 10.
Auburn led 33-32 at halftime thanks to a late 10-0 spurt. The Tigers last led at 48-47.
Auburn: The Tigers came in looking for a fourth tournament title and third under coach Bruce Pearl. Not only did they win with Pearl last year and in 2019, they also won in 1985.
