Year Two of the Nate Oats’ era has been a historic one for the Alabama Crimson Tide (19-6, 14-2 SEC, NET: 7, Kenpom: 8). Tide Hoops fans have been treated to unbelievable heights this season - rare wins in places like Rupp Arena, record setting shooting performances (SEC-record 23 made threes against LSU, school record for most points in a conference game with 115 against Georgia), lofty NCAA Tournament seeding projections - but none of them compare to the latest accomplishment for Oats’ squad: an SEC Championship. The first in nearly 20 years.
