ATHENS, Georgia (Ticker) -- Second-ranked Georgia remained tied atop the Southeastern Conference standings as it held Alabama to its second-lowest scoring output ever with its 13th straight win, a 72-37 rout.

Deana Nolan scored 21 points, Coco Miller added 17 and Angie Bell 10 as the Lady Bulldogs (27-2, 12-1 SEC) shot 47 percent (29-of-62) overall. They are riding their longest winning streak since opening last season 14-0.

Georgia is tied with Tennessee for first place in the SEC and can clinch the top seed in the conference tournament with a win Sunday over Vanderbilt. It was the Lady Bulldogs' most lopsided win since a 61-point rout of Hampton on December 9.
