The Alabama Crimson Tide men’s basketball team has not had the season many had hoped for following last year’s regular season championship and conference tournament title. Despite unmet expectations, the team is still ranked inside the top-25 and is expected to earn a decent seeding for the upcoming NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.
In the latest bracketology update by USA TODAY Sports’ Shelby Mast and Scott Gleeson, the Crimson Tide sits as a No. 5 seed in the Midwest Region.
Alabama would face the winner of SMU and Michigan, which would enter the tournament as a No. 12 seed.
With limited time until the start of the tournament, few opportunities remain for Alabama to boost its seeding.
The Crimson Tide will face South Carolina at home this Saturday in the penultimate regular season contest.
