How to watch, listen to Alabama basketball vs. Tennessee
The Alabama men’s basketball team is off to a strong start since SEC play opened up. After beginning the season barely over the .500 mark with a 6-5 record, the Crimson Tide have now reeled off six-straight wins — including four conference wins — to get 12-5 (4-0 SEC). The latest, of course, being a dominant 93-75 victory over Missouri on Tuesday night.
Now, it’s time for the Third Saturday in January (funny how that ended up working out) which includes a showdown against No. 6 Tennessee in Knoxville. The Vols currently sit at 13-4 (3-1 SEC) with three of those losses being to top-5 opponents. This will be Alabama’s most challenging test since that three-game stretch that included No. 2 Purdue, No. 12 Arizona and No. 18 Creighton.
