Alabama Crimson Tide Tickets

Coach Nick Saban and the Alabama Crimson Tide football team always get a lot of the headlines in Tuscaloosa, so sometimes it’s easy to forget that Alabama also has a pretty good basketball program. Over the last decade, the Tide has gone to the NCAA Tournament five times, including a run all the way to the Elite Eight in ‘04. Most people will tell you that the Tide should have had another NCAA Tournament berth last season, when they finished with a 21-11 record and easily took the SEC West regular season title. But instead they had to settle for the NIT, and they proved their talent by making it all the way to the championship game at Madison Square Garden in New York City to end up with 25 wins on the year. With some new additions to the Alabama basketball roster this season, they could win even more. So get your Alabama Crimson Tide tickets soon.

When you look back at least year’s Alabama Crimson Tide basketball schedule it’s hard to understand how this team was left out of the Big Dance. After all, the Tide posted a 12-4 record in the SEC, including a win against the #12 ranked Kentucky Wildcats. As the season went on, Alabama basketball tickets really got hot with the Tide selling out their last five home games at Coleman Coliseum. If the Tide starts to roll earlier in the season this year, then they could sell out even more games. That’s why it makes sense to buy your Alabama basketball tickets early.

After a solid career as a college player at Dayton, current Alabama head coach Anthony Grant had to wait nearly two decades before he got his first head coaching job. And it was certainly worth the wait as Grant took over the program at Virginia Commonwealth and all he did was win 76 games and three Colonial Athletic Association titles in three years. That set him up for a bigger job, and Alabama came calling before the ‘09 season. The Tide went 17-15 that season and then improved with eight additional wins the following season. With a just a little improvement this season, the Tide will be a NCAA Tournament team and a force in the SEC Tournament. So get your Alabama Crimson Tide basketball tickets now.
