Before taking the court for its regular-season finale on Saturday night, LSU had already had a successful day.
The Tigers clinched the No. 1 seed in the SEC tournament when Tennessee lost to Auburn, and now they'll look to win the conference tourney for the first time since 1980.
Kentucky, which has won the last four SEC tournaments, secured the No. 2 seed with a win over Florida. Tennessee, which lost to the Wildcats in last year's tournament championship, will be the No. 3 seed.
LSU, Kentucky and Tennessee are the three favorites to win this year's SEC tournament.
