Auburn basketball’s 11-game win streak will be put to the test this week as they hit the road twice in hopes of earning two quad-1 wins.
The first stop on the road trip will be Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa to battle with rival Alabama on Wednesday evening. Auburn is looking to snap a two-game losing skid to the Crimson Tide and will try to win its second game in Tuscaloosa over the last four tries.
Auburn is the SEC’s lone unbeaten team and has won all 16 games by double-figures. Alabama, however, leads Auburn in several statistical categories such as points per game, rebounds, and three-pointers made. The Crimson Tide also has more quad-1 victories than Auburn, which will provide Auburn with a solid test.
Can Auburn avoid the upset in Tuscaloosa? Ahead of Wednesday’s game, we spoke with Stacey Blackwood of Roll Tide Wire to get his thoughts on Alabama’s performance this season.
What has been the Tide’s Achilles heel this season? Which bench players should Auburn fans watch for? How great is the rivalry between [autotag]Bruce Pearl[/autotag] and Nate Oats? Blackwood answers those questions in this edition of “Behind Enemy Lines.”
