Coming off a loss to Purdue, the Alabama Crimson Tide look to regain their footing on Saturday as they play the LSU Tigers at Coleman Coliseum. Alabama captured two big wins this past week, beating the Kentucky Wildcats 102-97 and the Vanderbilt Commodores 103-87. These victories help the 5-1 Crimson Tide (16-3 overall) stay within striking distance of their rival, Auburn, who currently occupies the top spot in SEC with a 5-0 slate (17-1 overall). Alabama is led by dynamic senior guard Mark Sears, who averages 19.0 points per game. In the win vs. Kentucky, Sears sizzled with 21 points while Mouhammed Dioubate and Aden Halloway scored 22 points each off the bench. LSU is in a downward spiral after losing four of their last five games, including a 57-68 defeat at the hands of the Texas A&M. Senior guard Cam Carter has been the lone bring spot for the Tigers this season, averaging 17.6 points on 44.4 percent field goal shooting. LSU is third to the last in the SEC standings with a 1-4 record.
