† 2018 MEAC tournament winner

The 2017–18 Savannah State Tigers basketball team represented Savannah State University during the 2017–18 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Tigers, led by 13th-year head coach Horace Broadnax, played their home games at Tiger Arena in Savannah, Georgia as members of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC). With a win over South Carolina State on March 1, 2018, the Tigers earned a share of the MEAC regular-season championship.[1] They finished the season 15–17, 12–4 in MEAC play, finishing in a three-way tie for first place. Due to tie-breaking procedures, the Tigers received the No. 3 seed in the MEAC tournament, where they lost to North Carolina Central in the quarterfinals.[2]

The Tigers were initially ruled to be ineligible for postseason play for a second consecutive season due to APR violations.[3] However, the NCAA granted the Tigers a waiver allowed them to participate in postseason play.[4][5]

The season marked the second-last season for the Tigers in Division I as they rejoined Division II following the 2018–19 season.[6]

In 2019, ten wins were vacated due to academic certification errors.[7][8][9]

Previous season

The Tigers finished the 2016–17 season 13–16, 10–6 in MEAC play, to finish in fifth place. The Tigers were ineligible for postseason play due to APR violations.[10]
