For the first time since the very first game of the series, the Alabama Crimson Tide (13-7, 5-3 SEC) will be participating in the Big 12-SEC Challenge Saturday afternoon as the 12th-ranked Oklahoma Sooners (15-4, 5-3 Big 12) come to Tuscaloosa. Accompanying Lon Kruger’s Sooners will be the odds-on favorite to win the Naismith College Player of the Year award, Trae Young. Young has been nothing short of sensational all season, leading the Sooners to as high as a #4 ranking before they went into a bit of a slump recently.
