2021 is starting out hot for Alabama athletics. That certainly doesn’t exclude the basketball squad. After toppling 7th-ranked, and previously undefeated, Tennessee on Saturday night, the Alabama Crimson Tide (7-3, 2-0 SEC) will look to keep the momentum rolling against another very good team in the Florida Gators (5-1, 2-0 SEC) tonight. The Tide and Gators are currently the lone 2-0 teams in conference play. That’s right, a first place battle on the hardwood between Alabama and Florida will take place in Coleman Coliseum tonight, no Billy Donovan or Mark Gottfried necessary.
This is a major opportunity.
