SEC women's basketball is underway. South Carolina and Alabama will kick off the new year with a matchup in Colombia.

The No. 3 Gamecocks are a top contender in the conference, once again, despite a mid-season loss to Texas. Joyce Edwards leads the way with 21.4 points per game while Madina Okot rounds out the defense. Dawn Staley's team has high expectations, even on a New Year's Day matchup.

The Tide are not to be slept on. They're undefeated on the season, defeating opponents like Minnesota and Clemson en route to a perfect start. South Carolina, however, is Alabama's first ranked matchup of the season, presenting its biggest challenge yet. The Tide will look to Jessica Timmons and Karly Weathers to get it done on both sides of the ball.
