Sweet Sixteen
Sweet sixteen just means you’ve beaten two average teams. I know it’s not the easiest in the world and seedings can vary.
Winning the SEC tournament means you presumably beat the better teams from the conference (including higher seeded teams in the NCAA tournament) or are the best team in the conference (thus a high seed in the NCAA tournament).
So for me, it’s Elite Eight - SEC Reg - SEC Tournament - Sweet Sixteen

not necessarily. It could mean you were an 8/9 and beat a 1 seed. Or a 7/10 who beat a 2 seed.

Auburn beat the #5, #9, and #6 teams from the SEC this year to win the SECT. If the top seeds get beat in their first game, like this year, it can make the path a lot easier. The #1, #2, and #3 teams all lost their only game in the SECT, leaving Auburn, the #4, as the highest remaining seed left.
