Tennessee vs Alabama Pick: Saturday, March 13th: Tennessee hasn’t won this event since 1979. But the Vols now are a win away from reaching the championship game for a third straight tournament. Santiago Vescovi scored 14 points to lead five Volunteers in double figures, and Tennessee beat Florida 78-66 to advance to the SEC semifinals for a third straight tournament. It was their second straight win over Florida in the span of six days. Yves Pons nearly had a triple-double with 11 points, eight rebounds, and nine blocked shots that tied the SEC tournament single-game record set by Kentucky’s Andre Riddick in the 1993 title game. The game was overshadowed a bit by John Fulkerson taking two elbows to the face from Florida forward Omar Payne to the head early in the second half. He is doubtful to play due to a concussion. Tennessee lost their lone game vs Alabama 71-62 at home back on January 2nd as 10 point favorites.
