For the sake of argument, here are those latest opinions:
Joe Lunardi, ESPN
SEC: 5 bids (Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi State and Vanderbilt)

Tennessee is listed as being “on the bubble.”
Andy Glockner, SI.com
SEC: 5 bids (Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi State and Vanderbilt)
Neither Ole Miss nor Tennessee is listed among the last four out.
