Where to watch Florida basketball today vs. Alabama: TV channel, live stream, time

NASHVILLE, Tenn. ― For the second time this month, Florida basketball and Alabama will meet in a high-stakes game.

The second-seed Florida Gators (28-4) will face third-seed Alabama (25-7) in the SEC Tournament semifinals on Saturday afternoon in a matchup of high-powered, up-tempo offensive teams.

Florida advanced with a 95-81 win over No. 7 seed Missouri on Friday night, while Alabama obliterated Kentucky 99-70 behind 21 points from 6-foot-4 freshman guard Labaron Philon.

UF beat Alabama 99-94 at Coleman Coliseum on March 5 to clinch the No. 2 seed and a double bye in the SEC Tournament.

"They are one of the better teams in the country," Alabama coach Nate Oats said of the Gators. "They are fighting for a number one seed in the country, and we are so, so this will be a big game, both for the SEC championship and a one seed."

Florida is vying for its fifth SEC Tournament title in school history and first since 2014. With the win over Missouri on Friday night, UF improved to 50-53 all-time in SEC Tournament games and 4-2 under SEC Tournament play under head coach Todd Golden.
