LSU Tigers vs Alabama Crimson Tide Predictions 1/14/2023

 

Each week, Alabama makes a stronger case for a high seed in the NCAA Tournament.

 

The Tide, who were predicted by the media to place fifth in the SEC preseason poll, are 3-2 in Quad 1 matches and have a combined record of 10-0 in Quad 2, 3, and 4.

 

Alabama has its work cut out for it with five teams presently ranked on its upcoming schedule. On Wednesday, the Tide defeated No. 15 Arkansas to win their fifth consecutive game after dominating in the second half.

 

At halftime, the scores were level 33-all, but Alabama stomped the Razorbacks in the second half, outscoring them by 15. Alabama made 25 of its 54 field goals and nine of its 20 three-point attempts.

 

Alabama is 14th in the nation with 83.0 points scored while shooting 44.5 percent from the field overall and 35.4 percent from far distance.

 

According to KenPom, its schedule-adjusted offensive efficiency rating is the 16th-best in Division 1. Bama averages 42.1 rebounds per game, which leads the country, and is 12th in rebounding margin (8).

 

Brandon Miller, a freshman forward, leads the Crimson Tide with an average of 18.8 points and 8.2 rebounds per game.

 

Other players to keep an eye on when Alabama enters the court include freshman forward Noah Clowney (10.0 PPG and 8.3 RPG with a 53.5 FG%), junior guard Mark Sears (15.4 PPG and 3.9 RPG), and junior guard Jaden Bradley (8.6 PPG, 3.7 APG, and 3.1 RPG).

LSU Tigers vs #4 Alabama Crimson Tide. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #4 Alabama Crimson Tide.

 

Alabama is 14th in the nation with 83.0 points scored and shoots 44.5 percent from the field, including 35.4 percent from three-point range.

 

With its best chance at a Final Four in a while, Alabama won’t let up against a weaker opponent like LSU. The Tigers are significantly outmatched and are coming off a disappointing home effort against Florida.

 

The Gators have a strong defense, but they can’t be mistaken for the Crimson Tide (sixth in defensive efficiency). Bama controls the glass and can score from outside the arc and inside the paint (first in rebounds).

 

On both ends of the court, Alabama will crush LSU, improving their tournament resume. The #4 Alabama Crimson Tide will win to a predicted score of 82-66.
