BOX SCORE BREAKDOWN: Stat leaders from Alabama’s disappointing Sweet 16 loss to San Diego State

Stat leaders from Alabama’s disappointing loss in the Sweet 16 to San Diego State.

Alabama’s 2022-23 basketball season came to a very disappointing ending on Friday night with a 71-64 loss to the San Diego State Aztecs in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.

The Crimson Tide finish the season with a 31-7 record but failed to make a deep run in the tournament.

Alabama was completely abysmal from the field against the Aztecs, shooting just 32.4% overall and an absolutely atrocious 11.1% from three.

Star freshman Brandon Miller finished just 3 of 19 from the field and failed to score in double digits for the second time in the last three games.

Here are the stat leaders from Alabama’s loss to the Aztecs.

How to watch Alabama vs. San Diego State in the Sweet 16 of NCAA Tournament

How to watch the Sweet 16 matchup between Alabama and San Diego State!

The Sweet 16 is officially underway as day one was completed on Thursday night. Now, on Friday, more March Madness is on the docket with four more matchups taking place.

[autotag]Nate Oats[/autotag] and the Alabama Crimson Tide are set to take on the San Diego State Aztecs Friday afternoon with a chance to play in the Elite 8.

Alabama has won both NCAA Tournament matchups this year by 20+ points but the Aztecs will be a much tougher opponent.

There is a stark contrast between the Crimson Tide and the Aztecs. Alabama is led by a ton of young talent while San Diego State will trot out a veteran lineup of four seniors and one junior.

March always delivers some epic matchups and I don’t expect this one to be any different. Here is everything you need to know to catch all the action between the Tide and the Aztecs!

Everything Alabama basketball coach Nate Oats said ahead of the Sweet 16 matchup with San Diego State!

The Alabama men’s basketball team is set to take on the San Diego State Aztecs in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament in Louisville on Friday.

With a win, Alabama would advance to just its second Elite 8 appearance in program history.

As the top overall seed, Alabama is considered a favorite over the No. 5 seed Aztecs but will need to play at their best in order to defeat an experienced San Diego State squad.

Ahead of Friday’s matchup, Crimson Tide head coach [autotag]Nate Oats[/autotag] sat down on Thursday to speak to members of the media and discuss his team ahead of tipoff.

Here is everything coach Oats had to say!

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.
