Alabama Basketball: Hard to tell how good are the Georgia Bulldogs

Marvin Gentry-USA TODAY Sports

Alabama Basketball: Georgia Bulldogs are a difficult team to assess, with good winning streaks and bad losing streaks.

Alabama Basketball will be favored to win its eighth straight home game Saturday afternoon. The Alabama Crimson Tide has lost only once in Tuscaloosa this season, the disappointing two-point loss to Western Kentucky on Dec. 19.

Oddsmakers and college basketball experts will make the Crimson Tide a double-digit favorite over the Bulldogs. For the injury-ridden Crimson Tide, expectations of easy victories are not currently realistic.

The Georgia Bulldogs are the No. 8 team in the SEC, with an overall record of 12-7 and an SEC record of 5-7.
