No. 8 Crimson Tide outhustles and outlasts No. 1 Houston on the road

Nate Oats and his 8th ranked Crimson Tide basketball team went on the road and defeated the top-ranked Houston Cougars in a thrilling 71-65 game on Saturday. This is the second number one ranked team Bama has defeated in the last two weeks, the other one North Carolina 103-101 in four overtimes on November 27th. Turns out that this is kind of a big deal.

. @AlabamaMBB is the 2nd team in the HISTORY of the AP poll to beat two different #1 teams in the same regular season! UNREAL.
