Score updates for Alabama basketball vs Miss. State: Game highlights, how to watch and more
Alabama basketball welcomes Chris Jans and the Bulldogs to Tuscaloosa for the SEC foes’ second meeting of the 2024-25 season.
The last game of the February slate has arrived for the No. 6 Crimson Tide and the pressure of March is settling in.
Last month in Starkville, No. 23 Mississippi State (19-8, 7-7 SEC) found itself just a point away from tying Alabama (22-5, 11-3 SEC) with less than a minute to go. If the Crimson Tide doesn’t come out ready and allows the Bulldogs to put together the quick starts that saw Auburn and Missouri reign victorious − and made Alabama rally for the win against Kentucky over the weekend − there could be another close scoreboard on Tuesday.
