ESPN bracketologist Joe Lunardi has released another update to his early bracketology for the 2020 NCAA Tournament, and it features seven SEC teams.
The conference has made big strides in recent years in earning a record-setting eight bids two years ago and seven bids last season.
And according to Lunardi, the SEC may be able to match its success once again this season.
