GAINESVILLE, Fla. (Interstat) — The Alabama women’s basketball team looks to snap a three-game skid when it visits the Florida Gators in a Southeastern Conference matchup Sunday at the O’Connell Center. The Crimson Tide (20-7, 7-6 SEC) enter on a downturn, having lost their last three contests to Oklahoma, Texas A&M and South Carolina. Alabama’s offense has struggled during the stretch, averaging just 65.7 points per game. Guard Ace Austin, a key player for the Tide, will aim to regain her early-February form after scoring just nine points in 23 minutes against the Gamecocks on Thursday. Florida (16-12, 6-7), meanwhile, rides the momentum of a decisive 71-56 road win at Mississippi State. The Gators’ resurgence has been powered by the stellar play of guard Liv McGill. The sophomore is averaging 26.3 points, 7.0 assists and 6.3 rebounds over her last three games, including a 30-point, 7-assist performance in the win over the Bulldogs. This contest presents a critical opportunity for both teams to improve their postseason positioning. Alabama seeks to solidify its standing for an NCAA tournament bid, while Florida aims to continue its late-season push and enhance its postseason resume. The matchup features a contrast in styles: Alabama’s defense, which held Georgia to 53 points last month, against a Florida offense ignited by McGill’s dynamic playmaking. The Gators will need to contain Alabama forward Essence Cody, who provides an interior presence, and guard Ta’Mia Scott, who led the Tide with 14 points against South Carolina. For Alabama, slowing McGill and limiting Florida’s transition opportunities will be paramount. Tipoff is set for Sunday afternoon. Alabama visits Vanderbilt next Thursday, while Florida will host Mississippi.
