NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Labaron Philon scored 21 points and fifth-ranked Alabama never trailed in routing No. 15 Kentucky 99-70 on Friday night to advance to the Southeastern Conference Tournament semifinals. The Crimson Tide will play fourth-ranked Florida on Saturday looking to play for their second tournament title in three seasons. The Gators beat No. 21 Missouri earlier Friday night as the SEC's top four seeds all advanced. Alabama beat the Wildcats again after sweeping them during the regular season. Kentucky managed just one tie at 14 and trailed 45-38 at halftime playing without guard Lamont Butler out with an injured shoulder.
