Bama Basketball Breakdown: LSU
What more can be said about this Tide Hoops team? Fresh off of a rare road win in Bud Walton Arena against the 15th-ranked Arkansas Razorbacks, the #4 Alabama Crimson Tide (14-2, 4-0 SEC; Kenpom: 5; T-Rank: 7; NET: 6) are now firmly entrenched as a leading contender - not just for the SEC title - but for the big prize in April. Bracket Matrix, a website that aggregates dozens of projected NCAA Tournament brackets, now has the Tide listed as a one-seed, moving just ahead of (coincidentally) one of the only teams to beat Alabama this season, UConn. If Alabama can pull that off, it will be the first time in the long history of the program that the Tide received a top-seed in the Big Dance.
