Final Score- Alabama 80, Florida 69
> Live on-location in Atlanta, GA at the SEC Tournament
Florida tried to give them a run, but just fell behind too big too early. The Gators had the lead cut to six with six minutes to go, but every time Florida would score, Alabama would answer. The Crimson Tide used a 1-2 punch of their own to knock off the 3-time SEC Champs. Mykal Riley went 8-13 from three point range to pace the Tide with 26 points, while Richard Hendrix provided 22 more. For the Gators, they no longer have to worry about if they're in the NCAA Tournament or not... Because they'll be in the NIT. The Gator bubble has officially burst. As for Alabama, they will meet Mississippi State, who beat them twice in the regular season, tomorrow night.
On to other scores of interest.
No surprises in these:
UCLA 88, Cal 66
Temple 84, La Salle 75
Nebraska 61, Missouri 56
Memphis 75, Tulane 56
Kent State 77, Toledo 57
Here's one you might not have seen coming.
Pittsburgh 76, Louisville 69 in OT. The Panthers knocked off Louisville to live another day in the Big East Tournament. The Cardinals fall to the 4-5 seed range while Pitt moves up to around a six seed and will meet the winner of Marquette-Notre Dame tomorrow.
Coming up:
Georgia vs. Ole Miss
The Rebels handled UGA handily last saturday in Athens, winning by double digits, so you would think tonight's game wouldn't be very close. The Ole Miss faithful are here and they are pretty loud. Not surprisingly, not a lot of Bulldawg fans here, however I'm liking their band, dishing out popular song after popular song.
I'll be back at halftime!
