Alabama's Outlook in NCAA Softball Regional on The Joe Gaither Show

Let's fire up a Thursday edition of "The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral" with Theo Fernandez and Katie Windham as we break down this weekend's NCAA softball regional in Tuscaloosa, get Windham's input on our football topics of the week and then discuss the Crimson Tide's baseball series against Ole Miss.

The program opens by talking softball as the Crimson Tide earned the No. 1 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament. What did Alabama do to earn the No. 1 seed? Did the selection committee give the Crimson Tide a fair draw after sending Belmont to Tuscaloosa? Windham givs her outlook on the weekend ahead and the expectations that are on the program ahead of the NCAA Tournament.
