Alabama Crimson Tide: Tuesday, January 26th at 7 PM on ESPN
After building some potentially season saving momentum — Nate Oats is not the coach you want to see across the sideline. His 18th-ranked Crimson Tide have been making national headlines with their exciting style of play that produces a barrage of long range shots.

His philosophy is a blow-by lay-up or a three pointer, relatively no other shot is acceptable.

This was on full display last week when they scorched the nets for 23 threes in a 105-75 win over LSU, led by former UK recruit John Petty, who hit eight by himself.

There’s a real chance Alabama will climb into the top 10 of the new top-25 polls, which means Kentucky could face two top-10 teams this week.

Alabama is the top team in the SEC for a reason, and they obviously just recently dismantled Kentucky on their home floor.

This one won’t be easy on the road, but what we saw on Saturday can be replicated, UK just may have a shot to really turn this season around.

Considering how Bama has been rolling teams, you won’t find many people picking the Cats in this one

UK maybe struggling this year but the program has a culture of winning. That can always reach up and bite you even if you have the better team. Bama better have their mind right preparing for this game.

Kentucky won't make the NIT.

Kentucky won't make the NIT.

Based on what I see today it would take a hell of a tourney run. Out of the 75 brackets published by BracketMatrix UK is seeded in one. One.

BracketAday has UK as their 12th seed.
