ESPN analyst Dick Vitale gives us five SEC basketball questions on his mind as the conference tournament gets set to tip off today at the Georgia Dome:

1. Can Tennessee lock up a No. 1 seed in the Big Dance?

2. Can seniors Ramel Bradley and Joe Crawford lead surging Kentucky to an SEC title?

3. Will Billy Donovan's young Florida Gators, back in the building where they won it all last April, make a run that will get them off the proverbial bubble?

4. Will Mississippi surprise and return to its early-season form?

5. Can player of the year Shan Foster carry Vanderbilt to the championship?
