Bama been a little inconsistent, plus Jordan Bruner still working his way back into the rotation.

Because they've been playing at a Top 10 level for a month now and we've only recently started to come out of our offensive funk.

Vegas is wanting people to drop a lot of money on Bama. Hell I may drop a big fat 10 dollars on them.

Arky has won 8 straight SEC games, Mussleman is a great coach and the game is at Bud Walton. I wouldn't touch this game.

They haven't lost a conference game since Bama beat them back in mid January, we've been a little inconsistent, the game is at their place, and two of our regular starters are still coming back from injury.

I'd have them favored too. :dummo:

Because the revenge tour is in full force. Hopefully we beat Bama tonight, and then you and Will "The Pear" Wade are next.

It’s a trap line. Honestly the game could go a number ways. We’ll see if the hogs defend petty this time

Alabama is 1-10 in the last 11 meetings at Bud Walton Arena.

Let's hope that trend continues tonight.

Bama hit 15 threes the first matchup, if they shoot hot and Arkansas doesnt defend the perimiter, it will be a long night.

Alabama definitely could lose but this Alabama team ain't those Alabama teams.

Bud Walton is a tough place for visitors to come away with a win.

Vegas wants even betting FWIW.

That said, both are hot, but I like Bama. They are focusing in and playing to lock in a #2 seed or position for a #1 seed if they can get some help.

Yep. Isn’t quite the same this year due to Covid though. It would be crazy tonight at full capacity with two ranked teams playing.

I think of all the sports without crowds I miss them the most in basketball. It's just not nearly the same and it sucks, because a revved up, packed college basketball arena is as good as it gets.

Bama, for the most part, has played better and more focused on the road than at home.

I'm pretty sure we've never seen an Alabama basketball team like this in my entire life.

Bama wins by 18. The Pigs make a late 7 point run to make it that close.

Roll damn Tide.

2002 was pretty close in terms of wins, conference title, seeding, etc....but I'd definitely take this one vs that one head to head.

On 2/24/2002 we were 23-5, had just clinched the SEC Title and were ranked #5.
