Alabama Crimson Tide Basketball Sweet 16 gear and apparel

Celebrate Alabama’s Sweet-16 appearance and root the Tide onto the Final Four with this 2023 Sweet 16 gear.

March Madness has given us a whole new meaning to “Roll Tide”.

It’s exactly what the Alabama basketball team is doing.

The Crimson Tide are headed to their first Sweet 16 under head coach Nate Oats. Their hope is to play in the Elite 8 for only the second time in program history (2004).

Bama cruised by Texas A&M-CC in their opener, then did so again in the second half against No. 8 Maryland. That 73-51 win saw a red-hot Alabama look like a team that couldn’t miss in the second half.

Now standing the way of the top-seeded Tide is the No. 5 seeded San Diego State Aztecs. It’s a battle of offense against defense. Who comes out on top in that classic battle?

In preparation for a potential historic run, Alabama fans need to properly support their squad by heading over to Fanatics–Who have the latest Sweet 16 gear and Crimson Tide apparel available.
