It was quite a comeback. Alabama trailed South Carolina by a whopping 18 points with just under 12 minutes to go in the opening game of the SEC Tournament.

But the Tide wouldn't roll away. They continued to chip away at the lead. Led by Mikhail Torrance's 17 points, Alabama not only came back, but they beat South Carolina 68-63 to earn a date with Kentucky on Friday afternoon.

The Wildcats beat Alabama 66-55 back in February at Rupp Arena.

Alabama coach Anthony Grant says his team plans to enjoy winning this game before thinking about Kentucky, but the players are looking forward to the rematch.

They say they are a different team than the one the Cats saw in February.

UK is trying to win it's first SEC Tournament title since 2004.
