It has been an up an down week for Patrick Murphy and the Crimson Tide.
After starting the season with dominant performances in the Kickin’ Chicken Classic in Conway, SC, and a win over in-state rival South Alabama, the Tide dropped two games in a 3-game series with the No. 18 UL-Lafayette Ragin’ Cajuns to move to 7-2 on the season.
Alabama rebounded with a 2-0 win over North Florida at home Wednesday evening, and are now set to host the UCF Knights, Texas Tech Red Raiders, and Gardner-Webb Runnin’ Bulldogs at Rhoads Stadium in the annual Easton Bama Bash.
