Alabama basketball faces tough history in must-win at Vanderbilt

Alabama basketball travels to Nashville Saturday night. The Crimson Tide must win. History will not be on the side of Avery Johnson’s team. The Alabama Crimson Tide has won only once in Nashville during the lifetimes of the Tide players.

More specifically, Alabama basketball has beaten Vanderbilt in Nashville once since 1990. It was a 58-54 victory in 2013. Alabama basketball fans generally believe Lexington is a tougher place to win than Nashville. The Tide record on the Cats home floor is slightly better since 1990 – two wins.

Among all the current SEC teams, the Crimson Tide does have its worst winning record against the Wildcats – just 26.
