Social media reacts to Alabama's loss vs. Florida in SEC Tournament semifinals
With a spot in the SEC Tournament championship game up for grabs, the Alabama Crimson Tide were back in action Saturday afternoon in Nashville, Tennessee, facing off against the Florida Gators in the semifinals.
An opponent that Alabama had already lost to once this season, this game played out in a similar fashion as well, as Florida pulled away from the Crimson Tide in the second half to win by a final score of 104-82.
With this loss, not only did Alabama's run at the SEC Tournament come to a close, but it also likely ended the Crimson Tide's chances at getting a one-seed in the NCAA Tournament, meaning that a No. 2 seed on Selection Sunday is the likeliest landing spot.
Let's take a look at some reactions on social media to Alabama's loss against Florida on Saturday afternoon.

I seem to remember an Alabama basketball team that lost to Florida twice, also on March 5th and 15th. I think that team went on to play in the Final Four, if I’m not mistaken.

Calm down, everyone. We’re going to be just fine.

Alabama @ 1.05 ppp
UF @ 1.33 ppp
UF crushes Bama on both ends of the floor in the 2nd half. Frontcourt or backcourt, just no area where Bama has an advantage over this UF team.
