Alabama basketball reveals SEC opponents for 2024-2025 season

The Alabama Crimson Tide basketball team has revealed its SEC opponents for the 2024-2025 season.

The Alabama Crimson Tide basketball team didn’t win the SEC last season, but it did make a historic run to the Final Four in March Madness, the first in program history. Now, head coach Nate Oats and his team will look to build upon that success in the 2024-2025 season.

Though we don’t have dates yet, in-conference opponents and the locations of games have been revealed.

Alabama will look to compete for an SEC championship with some hefty competition and some unfavorable road games. Here’s how it will go down next season:

SEC HOME GAMES:

SEC AWAY GAMES:

SEC HOME-AND-AWAY SERIES:

The 2024-2025 season for the Crimson Tide will be full of exciting games. However, many would predict a majority of the “exciting” games would take place on the road with games against Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, and Texas all being exclusively on the road.

Georgia basketball suffers painful overtime defeat

The Dawgs fought until the end, coming up just short by a final score of 105 to 102.

In a conference matchup between two teams sporting losing SEC records (despite both maintaining winning overall records), the Georgia Bulldogs lost a heart-breaker against Alabama. The Dawgs fought until the end, coming up just short by a final score of 105 to 102.

The game was tied at 92 points apiece with 21.6 seconds remaining. The score at the end of regulation remained the same, sending the SEC foes to the conference’s third overtime contest of the day.

In the Bulldogs’ first 100-point offensive performance of the year, projected top-five NBA Draft selection Anthony Edwards was limited to 14 points on 5-17 from the field.

Freshman Sahvir Wheeler led the Dawgs with 24 points and 8 assists.

Rayshaun Hammonds posted 20 points. Toumani Camara recorded 12.

The Dawgs will play their next game on Wednesday at home against South Carolina. Tom Crean’s squad somehow maintains 12-11 overall record while having gone 2-8 against SEC opponents.
