Format

Eight teams qualified for the tournament. Southern and Grambling each received one-year postseason bans in men’s basketball, thus not allowed to participate in the 2012 SWAC Tournament, due to failing to meet the NCAA's Academic Progress Rate requirements.[2] The rest of the seeds were determined after the final games were played[3]
