What you need to know about Alabama
While not quite a landslide, the contest between the Crimson Tide and the Arkansas Razorbacks on Wednesday was still a pretty decisive one as Bama wrapped it up with an 84-69 win on the road. Bama’s guard Mark Sears looked sharp as he had 26 points.
It was the fifth straight win for the Tide, with all five coming by double-digits. Freshman Brandon Miller had 14 points in the win and has scored in double-figures in 15 of his 16 collegiate games. The No. 11 overall recruit leads the SEC in scoring (18.8 points per game), made 3-pointers (49) and 3-point percentage (44.5%).
What you need to know about LSU
Meanwhile, LSU entered its game against the Florida Gators on Tuesday without any home losses — but there’s a first time for everything. The Tigers took a hard 67-56 fall against Florida. Guard Adam Miller just could not get things rolling his way, finishing with only eight points on 2-for-12 shooting in his 33 minutes on the court.
LSU overhauled its roster as its top six scorers weren’t on the team last season. Murray State transfer KJ Williams, who followed coach Matt McMahon over from the Racers, leads the Tigers with 18.5 PPG. Williams was a three-time All-OVC selection, in addition to being the conference’s reigning Player of the Year, and he’s well on his way to earning SEC honors as he ranks in the top five in both scoring and rebounding.
