WBFF Fox 45 :: SEC Men's Basketball Tournament Brings Fans to Music City from All Over Southeast - Eric Alvarez
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Even the lower seeds' games are coming down to the wire. Fans of all 14 SEC schools are painting Broadway with their school colors. The tournament runs until Sunday when this year's SEC champ will be crowned under the rafters of Bridgestone Arena. Every year the tournament draws fans from every school, but 2013 is getting some new flavor, with fans from Texas A&M and Missouri getting in on the Music City action for the first time. No matter which teams they support, they all seem to be big fans of Nashville.

"Well I just got here, but I've always enjoyed the tournament when it was held here in Nashville in the past," says Mississippi fan Jim Sneed.

"It's very cool," says Alabama fan Dennis Wells. "Nashville is probably the best city to come to, Broadway and everything is such a happening place, it's probably our favorite place to come."

"It's just a fun place," says Bob and Joy Sullivan. "Music City, lots to do."

The winners of tonight's games get to stay in Nashville another night. The hometown Commodores take on Arkansas.

LOUISVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The Blount (blunt) County sheriff's office says preliminary results of autopsies on the bodies of a couple found dead in their home in Louisville (LEW'-ihs-vil) show their deaths are consistent with murder-suicide.

Marian O'Briant said in an email that it appears 54-year-old Steven Adkins shot 53-year-old Rebecca Adkins, then shot himself.

O'Briant said a family member found the bodies Sunday night. It wasn't clear how long they had been dead.
