Noah Clowney added 19 points and Charles Bediako 10 as the top-seeded Crimson Tide (28-5) advanced to the title game on Sunday. They will face second-seeded Texas A&M (25-8), which beat sixth-seeded Vanderbilt 87-75 in the other semifinal Saturday.

D'Moi Hodge recorded 21 points and nine rebounds, DeAndre Gholston scored 17 and Noah Carter had 10 to lead the fourth-seeded Tigers (24-9). Missouri made its deepest run in the tournament since joining the SEC for the 2012-13 season.

Carter answered with a 3-pointer, but Miller and Noah Gurley made back-to-back 3-pointers to increase the Tide's lead to 52-42.

Hodge scored four straight points to trim the lead to six, and Missouri got within six twice more.

But Clowney made a 3-pointer and Bediako added a jumper to put Alabama in control with a 64-53 lead with 3:30 remaining.

The score was tied at seven before Jalen Bradley made two layups and Miller made one.

The Tigers got within one point before Clowney made a layup and added a 3-pointer to help Alabama open a 20-12 lead.

The Tide's biggest lead of the half was 10 points on two occasions before Missouri finished with a push.
