Alabama vs. Georgia Key Players to Watch
Labaron Philon Jr., Guard, Alabama Crimson Tide
Labaron Philon Jr. is making his way up some NBA draft boards during an impressive season at Alabama. After averaging 10.6 points per game in his freshman year, he’s scoring the 14th-most points per game in the country at 21.4 this season. His 4.9 assists per game also rank him 77th in the nation.
Going on the road hasn’t been an issue for the sophomore. He has 21.0 points per game on the road and 21.6 at home. He’s coming off a 22-point performance on 9 of 14 shooting at Tennessee over the weekend, and hopes to help Alabama to another upset victory.
Alabama vs. Georgia Prediction and Pick
Alabama has been rolling recently. The Crimson Tide have one of the best offenses in the country, and they’re able to outscore any problems on defense.
Georgia may be on the upswing with a 3-1 record in its last four games, but this is a tough test against Alabama.
I have to back Alabama given its 7-2 road record as well as a 12-4 record in the SEC, while Georgia is just 8-8 in conference.
Pick: Alabama Moneyline (+100)
