SWAC 16

The SWAC begins their tournament tomorrow from sweltering Houston. Texas Southern is the 1-seed and probable favorite. 2-seed Alcorn State is ineligible for the NCAA Tournament.

Texas Southern is 203rd in KenPom. That is the best of the teams. Alcorn State is 2nd at 285. No other team cracks the top 300. This tournament is to earn a trip to awful Dayton, OH.

Texas Southern is coached by Mike Davis. They only lost twice in league play, once each to Jackson State and Mississippi Valley State.

The Pick: Texas Southern
