The four matchups are reportedly set for the inaugural scheduling alliance between the AAC and SEC.

Georgia is set to travel to Memphis, Houston will visit South Carolina, Ole Miss plays at Wichita State, and Vanderbilt and SMU will square off with the location still to be decided.

Both conferences came together to try and increase their number of quality win opportunities for the NCAA Tournament, and these types of matchups should help do just that.

There were four AAC teams that made it to the tournament last season, with Houston advancing all the way to the Sweet 16.

The SEC landed seven teams in the field, as Auburn advanced to the Final Four while Kentucky made the Elite Eight.
