With finals now in the rearview mirror for the Alabama Crimson Tide (7-3), Avery Johnson's group looks to end non-conference play with a pair of wins in their showcase games in Huntsville and Birmingham this week. Tuesday night brings the second installment of the Rocket City Classic, played in the Von Braun Center in Huntsville. The Tide's opponent will be the Mercer Bears (6-5), who will be looking to win their second straight over Alabama after taking the last meeting in 2012 66-59, a loss that helped keep the Crimson Tide out of the NCAA Tournament that season.
