Alabama Crimson Tide Basketball Loses To Tennessee

The Alabama Crimson Tide were ranked number one for the first time in 20 years when the polls came out on Monday. Just like the 2002-2003 squad, the team lost their next game. This year’s squad went to Knoxville and lost a rock fight to the Vols by a score of 68-59. Bama fell to 22-4 overall and 12-1 in the league while UT improved to 20-7 and 9-4. The Vols had lost their last two games on three pointers at the buzzer to Vanderbilt and Missouri. The home team was by far the more physical team in the game and used that to their advantage, helping force 19 big turnovers by the Tide.
