The 2010 SEC men's basketball tournament was held March 11–14, 2010 in Nashville, Tennessee at Bridgestone Arena.

[1] The first, quarterfinal, and semifinal rounds were televised by SEC Network and the semifinals and finals were broadcast nationwide on ABC, with the exception of the majority of South Carolina markets.

The weekend games did not air in the market of the South Carolina Gamecocks in Columbia.

ABC affiliate WOLO pre-empted the game and aired the 2010 ACC men's basketball tournament semifinal and final matches instead, per syndication contract with Raycom Sports, with the current Raycom-WOLO contract continuing until the 2011 tournament.

Raycom had owned the syndication rights to SEC sports prior to this season.
