No. 8 seed Tennessee baseball is playing No. 1 Texas in the SEC Tournament quarterfinals after beating Alabama 15-10 in its opener.

Texas came to its first SEC baseball tournament as the No. 1 seed but not quite on the same roll it started the season in its new conference. The Longhorns, who won 19 of their first 21 SEC games, were just 3-6 in their last nine as they held on for the regular season title.
