Alabama began the year playing uncharacteristically poor defense. After a 97-84 loss at Xavier on December 6th, the Tide was allowing 74 PPG. Since that time, they have held 7/9 of their opponents to 53 or less points. Also since that loss, Alabama has played outstanding basketball on the road, losing by 1 at Wichita, by 2 at S. Carolina and winning at Tennessee by 18. But after winning 5 consecutive games, the Tide has lost 2 straight, including a conference shattering defeat at Kentucky on Saturday by a score of 70-48. Far prefer Arkansas to bounce back, following a rare home court loss. On Saturday, Arkansas lost to Ole Miss (96-82). Remember, this is a team who is 63-7 SU at Bud Walton Arena L3+Y and whose HC Mike Anderson, during his time in Missouri and Arkansas, is 51-25 ATS as home chalk. Play the Hogs to bounce back on their strong home court with their 40 minutes of hell defense.
