How to Watch: Alabama Basketball vs Missouri

The Crimson Tide is back at home looking to win a sixth consecutive game.

Alabama basketball came away with a tough win on Saturday night, escaping Starkville with an 82-74 win over Mississippi State. 

The win was the Crimson Tide's fifth in a row, and now the team takes its win streak back home to take on the Missouri Tigers.

Missouri is in the middle of a massively underwhelming season. After making the NCAA Tournament in Dennis Gates' first year at the helm in 2023, the Tigers have started the season 8-8, and have lost six of their last seven games.

Missouri now ranks outside the top-100 in KenPom, and has yet to win an SEC game this season.

The game between the Crimson Tide and the Tigers is set for 6 p.m. CT on Tuesday night.
