LSU claims the doubles point over Florida winning 8-2 at 1 and 8-4 at 3. Could get interesting in singles. LSU is a much better team at home than on the road.

Florida is a pretty big favorite at 4-5. And a decent favorite at 6. LSU will need strong play from their top 3.

Courts 1 and 2 just won the first sets. Courts 4 and 5 are tied up, late in the first set. Other courts going UF's way.

Courts 1 and 2 for LSU just won the first sets and are up early in the second set. UF won first sets on Court 3 (6-3), 4 (7-5), 5 (7-6), and 6.

Alabama stuns Tennesee 4-1. Bottom of the line-up for the Tide routs the Vols lower players.

Typo on previous post. UF hasn't won Court 4 yet. It's 3-0 LSU at this time.

LSU won Courts 1 and 2. LSU's Simpson down a set on Court 3, but up 5-4 in 2nd. LSU is down a set on Court 4, but Knights up 5-3 in 2nd set. Szacinski in 3rd set on Court 5 and Dave Roberts, down a set, has rallied back from a 5-2 deficit to make it 5-5 in the 2nd set. LSU definitely pushing UF on all courts today!

LSU up 3-2 on courts with Court 4 leading 5-1 in the third set. May be great call by Clemson Tennis

Great weekend for Kentucky. They pasted both Mississippi State and Ole Miss to lock up the #1 seed in the SEC Tournament.

Kentucky handled Ole Miss fairly easily 5-2. UK rebounded from dropping the doubles point by winning in straight sets at 3-6.
Georgia took care of Auburn 6-1 with all singles matches finishing in straight sets. Only blemish for Georgia was Wil Spencer getting hammered 6-1 6-2.
LSU upset Florida 4-2. LSU got the doubles point and straight set wins at 1, 2, and a 6-1 win in the 3rd set at 4. Sliliam sat out singles for Florida.
Alabama rolled Tennessee 6-1. Alabama played well this past week also beating Memphis and coming close to upsetting Georgia.
Mississippi State won the closest match of the day 4-3 over Vandy. 5 of the 6 singles matches went 3 sets with Coupland winning the deciding match at #5 7-6 6-7 6-4.

Final day of the regular season for all the SEC Teams. Kentucky will clinch the regular season title outright with a win over Vandy. UK already has a 1st round bye and the #1 seed locked up in next weeks SEC Tournament in Starkville. Ole Miss and Mississippi State should be the match of the day - winner takes the SEC West Crown. Ole Miss had won 26 straight in the series before Mississippi State took the last 2. I'll take Ole Miss at 1,2,3 & dubs and MSU at 4,5,6. Also I'll take Alabama to upset Auburn which means Auburn will probably win it in a rout.

I'd love to be watching Ole Miss vs Miss State right now. Super tight and intense between the rivals.

Got to love some of these blogs. This is from the Tennessee blog today for their match against Georgia. In a matter of a minute from 4:07 to 4:08 they go from having a shot at winning to losing 4-0.

4:07 If Brandon can turn his around, the Vols have a very realistic shot of winning this match.
4:07 Reese loses.
4:08 Georgia clinches 4-0.
