How to watch, listen to Alabama vs. Kentucky
After a 5-day layoff, Alabama will be back in action on Friday night in the quarterfinal round of the SEC Tournament.
The 3-seed Crimson Tide will be taking on 6-seed Kentucky for the third time this season following the Wildcats’ 85-84 win over 14-seed Oklahoma in the second round on Thursday night.
Alabama swept the regular season series against Kentucky for the second time under head coach Nate Oats this season, beating the Wildcats 102-97 in Rupp Arena on Jan. 18, and winning 96-83 in Coleman Coliseum on Feb. 22.
Both teams are solidly in the NCAA Tournament picture, playing for seeding in Nashville this week. Kentucky is projected as a 3-seed in the Big Dance, while Alabama is sitting at the top of the 2-line with a chance to move up to a 1-seed depending on its performance this weekend.
The game will tip off at roughly 8:30 p.m. CT, or 25 minutes after the conclusion of the third quarterfinal of the day between 2-seed Florida and 7-seed Missouri.
