No. 4 Alabama’s pulsating 102-97 road victory against No. 8 Kentucky — which snapped UK’s 15-game home winning streak — was powered by a massive scoring performance by Crimson Tide fifth-year forward Grant Nelson, who tallied a game-high 25 points as Nate Oats’ team scored an impressive road win.

Guard Chris Youngblood, who transferred from South Florida, knocked down a pair of crucial three-pointers late in the second half to further Alabama's momentum. Center Cliff Omoruyi played one of the best games of his season as his interior presence on both sides of the ball was essential. Omoruyi finished with 12 points and seven rebounds.
