Well that was quick. Coming off a huge road win over the Mississippi State Bulldogs to close out the regular season, the Tennessee Lady Vols lost their first game in the SEC Tournament to the Alabama Crimson Tide 72-64.
Tennessee blew a 34-24 third quarter lead before going on an offensive drought. They were the No. 5 seed in the tournament with a 19-10 overall record and 10-6 SEC record, while Alabama was the No. 12 seed with a 17-12 regular season record and 5-11 SEC record.
As a result, the Tide also had a game Wednesday against the Vanderbilt Commodores, whom they beat by 20 to move to 18-12.
