How to watch, listen to Alabama basketball vs. Liberty
The Alabama men’s basketball team (7-5) is in Birmingham on Saturday for a matchup against Liberty (10-3) in the C.M. Newton Classic. After dropping three of their last four games (with all of those losses being against top-25 opponents), the Crimson Tide are hoping to stack a 111-67 victory over Eastern Kentucky with another win before SEC play opens up next weekend.
Liberty is one of the better mid-major programs in college basketball though — or at least they have been in recent years. They’ve made it to the NCAA Tournament two times since 2019, which included an 80-76 win over Mississippi State in the first round that season. In other words, don’t expect Saturday’s game to be easy.
