Alabama baseball is reeling, on a four-game losing streak after getting swept by Kentucky to start SEC play, before losing on Tuesday night in Mobile to South Alabama. The Crimson Tide now enters a massive series against Florida, desperately needing to get back in the win column to avoid dropping to the bottom of the conference standings.

Florida, ranked No. 18 in the country, is 19-3 and coming off a sweep of South Carolina. Preseason National Pitcher of the Year frontrunner Liam Peterson has been very good, with a 2.84 ERA, but the bigger story has been sophomore right-hander Aidan King. The 2025 Freshman All-American is yet to allow an earned run through 23.1 innings. He's struck out 26 batters and has earned the win in all four of his starts.

Alabama's rotation did not look great in Lexington last weekend. All three will have their work cut out for them against a Florida lineup that is among the best in the SEC, led by Brendan Lawson with a 1.599 OPS.
