How to Watch Florida Gators at Alabama Crimson Tide Basketball, TV, Times, Radio

Alabama's had a long time to think about its last meeting with Florida on the basketball court, but that's not usual of late.

Tuesday night, the Crimson Tide will host the Gators with both teams undefeated in league play, and if last season's conference opener was a fair indication of what to expect it should be quite a game.

Florida came back from a 21-point deficit to pull out a 104-98 victory in double overtime. The Crimson Tide trailed only once in regulation, and for less than a minute, until overtime. However, in the process, Herbert Jones, Galin Smith and Javian Davis all fouled out

"Stuff that coaches lose sleep over definitely went the wrong way for us," Alabama coach Nate Oats said after the game.

Florida has dominated the series lately, having won 14 of 16, and 25 of the last 30 meetings.

However, the games have been close, with 15 of the last 20 decided by 10 points or less.
