Auburn basketball will be dancing as a No. 2 seed in this year's NCAA Tournament.
The Tigers, who won the SEC regular-season outright, will face Jacksonville State in the Round of 64 in the Midwest Regional in Greenville, South Carolina.
Auburn is one of six SEC teams in the Big Dance, joining fellow 2-seed Kentucky, 3-seed Tennessee, 4-seed Arkansas, 6-seed LSU and 6-seed Alabama.
It's also one of four teams from the state of Alabama (Auburn, Alabama, Jacksonville State, UAB).
The game will be on Friday, March 18, at a time to be announced later.
