 BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - Jermareo Davidson scored a career-high 31 points, including a pair of free throws with 45 seconds left that gave Alabama its first lead of the second half, to help the No. 19 Crimson Tide defeat faltering LSU 73-70 on Wednesday night.
After Davidson's free throws put Alabama (16-5, 3-4 SEC) ahead 69-68 inside the final minute, Garrett Temple's pass was intercepted by Alonzo Gee, who was fouled driving to the hoop on a fast break and hit both free throws.
Chris Johnson's follow-up dunk with about 10 seconds left pulled the Tigers to 71-70, but LSU failed to foul Alabama before the clock ran out and the Tide got a last second-dunk from Davidson, who pumped his fist in triumph as the final buzzer sounded.
