The Cats and the Tide clash in a Round 3 bout in Nashville.
The Kentucky Wildcats are set to face the Alabama Crimson Tide for a third time this season, the latest coming in the SEC Tournament. Game time is set for approximately 9:30 PM ET. Watch the game with an online stream using ESPN+ or a radio stream via the UK Sports Network.
Kentucky was able to stave off Oklahoma in Thursday’s action to make it to Friday’s quarterfinals, despite losing Lamont Butler early on to an injury. He’s out for tonight, and his status for the NCAA Tournament is uncertain.
That means it’s a familiar theme for Kentucky this season: Next man up.
The winner of this game advances to Saturday’s semifinal action, where Kentucky has been just once since 2020.
