NCAA Basketball Look Ahead; Tuesday, Jan. 11 8:00pm CST

The college basketball season is in full swing, and conference play is now fully underway. There have been a lot of surprises over the last few weeks, and that isn’t going to change anytime soon. There have been some massive upsets as we have now gotten into the season, and the week ahead is setting up to where we could see more.

Below, we will look at Auburn Tigers and Alabama Crimson Tide. This should be one of the best games to watch this upcoming week.

Auburn Tigers Travel to Tuscaloosa to Face Alabama Crimson Tide

In a big SEC matchup, the Auburn Tigers travel to take on the Alabama Crimson Tide on Tuesday. Auburn is 13-1 on the season and a perfect 2-0 in the conference. The Alabama Crimson Tide is 15-3 on the year and 2-0 in the conference.

This will be a big matchup between Top 15 teams in the country as Auburn is #9 and Alabama is #15. Auburn comes into the game on a ten-game win streak while Alabama has won two games in a row.

Auburn is scoring 80.3 points per game and is allowing just 64.3 points a game. Alabama is scoring 82.2 points a game while allowing 72.7 points per game.

Both of these teams are averaging over 15 assists per game, and over seven steals a game as well. This is going to be a critical game in the conference champion race. I lean toward Auburn coming in and taking a win on the road.
