The "S" in SEC stands for softball. After all 13 teams made it to the 2024 NCAA tournament, seven advanced to the super regionals. Not everyone will continue on, though, as Tennessee and Alabama will go head to head for a spot in the Women's College World Series. 

The conference's regular-season champions, the Vols earned the No. 3 overall seed in this year's tournament. They had a smooth start in regionals, taking down Dayton and Virginia (twice) while not allowing a single run. Now they face a familiar foe in the Tide as both squads try to return to the big stage for the second straight year.

Tennessee won the regular-season series against Alabama 2-1, surrendering just one run in its sole loss. But the 14th-seeded Tide were big hitters in their regional, beating USC Upstate and Southeastern Louisiana (twice) with a total of 19 runs.

Anything can happen in the super regionals, especially when it involves rivals in a win-or-go-home situation. Here's how to watch Tennessee battle Alabama in the NCAA softball tournament.
