Deadline to declare a champion?

Does a conference have to complete the tournament by Sunday for the autobid or could they play on Monday?

Just asking because there is a chance for rain in Hoover for the SEC tournament. They do have the QF spread over two days so I assume they could compress it if they had to but if a conference lost an entire day (especially early if they had four games scheduled) it would be tough to make up. I guess if they couldn’t finish they would just declare the highest remaining seed the champion.
