COLLABORATIVE INSTANT REPLAY FOR SEC MEN’S BASKETBALLSEC To Implement Collaborative Instant Replay Beginning December 30, 2017, the Southeastern Conference will implement a collaborative process for instant replay in the sport of men’s basketball as the 2017-18 conference season begins. Under this upgraded system for instant replay reviews, personnel operating from SEC Headquarters will assist the game officials for all monitor reviews in conference games. “The implementation of collaborative replay in men’s basketball continues the SEC’s commitment to use the best-available resources to support correct outcomes when replay is used,” SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey said. “This update to our replay review process is expected to more effectively support the Conference’s men’s basketball officiating program and build on the positive re-sults we have experienced in football officiating through the use of technology.” In June of 2017, the NCAA approved an experimental rule at the request of the SEC that will allow a conference to utilize a collaborative Instant Replay review process for all conference contests in the 2017-18 season. This col-laboration will be limited to only those plays that are reviewable under NCAA Playing Rule 11. All reviews will be initiated by game officials, who maintain final decision-making authority. The SEC is the only conference utilizing a col-laborative replay process this season. Terry Moore, a veteran NCAA official with 30 years of experience, will as-sume the role of Coordinator of Men’s Basketball Replay. In the newly-created position, Moore will collaborate with game officials from SEC Headquarters for all monitor reviews during the 2017-18 conference schedule as part of a recently approved NCAA experimental rule. A veteran of the Southeastern, Atlantic Coast, Big 12, American and Missouri Valley conferences, Moore has earned officiating assignments in 17 NCAA Tournaments, advancing to the Regional Finals on two occasions. His 27 years of international officiating experience includes the 2005 Gold Game in Mar del Plata, Argentina, and the 2006 World Championship Gold game in Saitama, Japan. For the last 10 years, Moore has been a FIBA Instructor for USA Bas-ketball and is a member of the USA Basketball Official Selection Committee where he oversees the recruiting, training, evaluation, and testing of National and FIBA Certified officials who represent the USA in all FIBA events worldwide. Moore will work closely with SEC Coordinator of Men’s Basketball Officials Mark Whitehead and SEC Associate Commissioner for Men’s Basketball Dan Leibovitz to implement and manage the collaborative replay process.
SEC Men’s Basketball Collaborative Instant Replay Q&AWhat is the goal in altering the way instant replay is conducted in the SEC?The goal is to increase the accuracy and consistency of the replay process.
Will the new collaborative replay system slow down the instant re-play process when a game is stopped for instant replay review?The live feeds going into the SEC Video Center in Birmingham should make video reviews more time efficient. On many of the plays that may be reviewed under NCAA Playing Rules, the process may begin before the officiating crew reaches the scorers’ table.
Will the process be centralized or collaborative? What is the differ-ence?While there will be an element of both, the model will be collaborative in nature. There will be a centralized video center dedicated to instant replay that will have real-time direct communication with the officiating crews in the arena at all 14 member institutions.
Where will this centralized video room be located?The collaborative replay system will be operated from the SEC Video Center at SEC Headquarters.
In what games will this new collaborative replay system be utilized?This newly created replay process will be used for the 2017-18 conference schedule as well as the 2018 SEC Tournament in St. Louis, Mo.
Who will serve in the instant replay official roles at the SEC Video Center?Terry Moore, a veteran official with 30 years of NCAA experience, 27 years of inter-national experience and who served as the instant replay operator during the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, will assume the role of Coordinator of Men’s Basketball Replay.
Who will make the final instant replay decision if the game officials at the arena and the Coordinator of Men’s Basketball Replay in the SEC Video Center are not able to agree?The game officials, based upon information developed in collaboration with Coor-dinator of Men’s Basketball Replay in the SEC Video Center, will ultimately make the final determination of a play’s outcome.
Will the Coordinator of Men’s Basketball Replay have the ability to stop a game for a review?Per NCAA Playing Rules, all reviews will be initiated by game officials. What will be the role of SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey and SEC Co-ordinator of Men’s Basketball Officials Mark Whitehead in the new replay process in the SEC Video Center?Commissioner Sankey and Mark Whitehead will not participate in the instant replay process that takes place at the SEC Video Center or at the playing venue.
What role will the SEC Video Center play in this new instant replay process?The SEC Video Center will continue to serve as the main viewing, evaluation and ob-servation location of all SEC men’s basketball conference contests that take place, and will continue to fulfill an important role in the game day communications, social media and event management areas of SEC Men’s Basketball. The Coordinator of Men’s Basketball Replay and the replay equipment has been integrated into the cur-rent structure of the SEC Video Center.

The Southeastern Conference Men’s Basketball Tournament will be played on the western banks of the Mississippi River for the first time when St. Louis, Mo, plays host to the 2018 event. Scottrade Center is a contemporary, 12-story glass and concrete structure located in the heart of downtown St. Louis. The home of the St. Louis Blues Hockey Club, Scottrade Center also features a full range of arena programming, including concerts, ice shows, family shows and other sporting events. Scottrade Center plays host to approximately 175 events per year, bringing nearly 2 million guests to downtown St. Louis annually and ranking it among the top arenas in the country. The tournament has been played on the eastern banks of the Mississippi seven times with Baton Rouge (1938 and 1988), Memphis (1994 and 1997) and New Orleans (1996, 2003 and 2012) previously serving as hosts. The winner of the 13-game tournament receives the SEC’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The tournament seeds are determined by the 18-game conference schedule during the regular season. Teams are seeded 1-14 based on their regular season conference finish. Atlanta served as host of the inaugural SEC Tournament played following the 1932-33 season and did so again after the 1933-34 season. The event was held every year through 1952, with the exception of 1935. After a 26-year layoff (1953-78), the tournament was renewed in 1979. The 2018 tournament will be the 59th in league history and the 40th since the renewal. The event has helped set the stage for SEC teams in the NCAA Tournament, as 24 of the tournament
champions since the tournament resumed in 1979 have advanced to at least the Sweet 16. Three of the last 12 SEC Tournament champions have gone on to win the national championship. Since the renewal in 1979, the SEC Tournament Champion has failed to win at least one NCAA Tournament game only four times. Kentucky leads the league with 30 SEC Tournament titles. Alabama is second with six, while Tennessee and Florida are tied for third with four. Mississippi State has three championship trophies while Georgia, Ole Miss and Vanderbilt have two. Arkansas, Auburn, LSU and former league member Georgia Tech have each won one SEC Tournament championship.

SEC Tournament Tie-Break Procedures Teams will be seeded No. 1 through No. 14 in the SEC Men’s Basketball Tournament bracket based upon the final regular season Conference standings.
1. Two-Team Tie: The following procedure will be used in the following order until the tie is broken: A) Won-lost results of head-to-head competition
between the two teams. B) Won-lost record of the two teams versus the No.
1 seed (and proceeding through the No. 14 seed, if necessary).
C) Coin flip by the Commissioner.
2. Three-Team Tie (or more): Won-lost record of the two teams versus the No. 1 seed (and proceeding through the No. 14 seed, if necessary). A) Best winning percentage of games played among
the tied teams (Example: Team A is 3-1, Team B is 2-2 and Team C is 1-3 – Team A would be seeded highest, Team B second-highest and Team C lowest of the three).
B) Best winning percentage of the tied teams versus the No. 1 seed (and proceeding through the No. 14 seed, if necessary).
C) If two teams remain, coin flip by the Commissioner.
D) If three or more teams remain, draw by the Commissioner.
For the purpose of seeding, if an institution is precluded from participating in the tournament, such institution will automatically be seeded last. The No. 11 seed will then receive a bye. However, for the purpose of breaking ties, that team will remain where it finished in the regular-season standings BEFORE being seeded last.
