01/27/2007 - Tuscaloosa, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa is the site of today's SEC battle between the Arkansas Razorbacks and Alabama Crimson Tide.
Not much has gone right for Arkansas lately, as the team has lost four of its last five games to fall to 13-7 overall and 2-4 in league. All five of the team's true road tilts have resulted in defeat, including a 66-60 setback to South Carolina on Wednesday.
Alabama is undoubtedly eager to get back to action after getting crushed by Auburn on Tuesday by an 81-57 final. It is hard to justify the Tide's high national ranking, as the team has lost three of its five SEC tilts, all by more than 20 points. There is reason for confidence tonight, however, as 'Bama is 10-0 at home this season.
Arkansas holds a 23-20 edge in the all-time series with Alabama, and the Razorbacks have won the last two meetings.
Arkansas is scoring 72.2 ppg while limiting opponents to 63.5 ppg, but that positive differential has much more to do with the team's play against non-league foes than against conference opponents. Patrick Beverley is the leading scorer for the Razorbacks, as he is netting 13.3 ppg on the strength of his 42.9 percent shooting from three-point range. Charles Thomas adds 12.2 ppg and 5.4 rpg to the mix, and Sonny Weems rounds out a trio of double-digit scorers with 11.8 ppg. In the six-point loss to South Carolina last time out, the Razorbacks turned the ball over 17 times, overshadowing a 15-8 edge in points from the foul line. Darian Townes led the way in defeat with 17 points off the bench, while Weems contributed 11 points. As for Beverley, he finished with 10 points on 2-of-10 shooting from the field.
Alonzo Gee continues to pace Alabama in scoring with 14.7 ppg on 51.8 percent shooting from the floor, and while his offensive output has been strong in league play, his shooting percentage against SEC foes is down considerably. Richard Hendrix is netting 13.8 ppg overall, and Jermareo Davidson checks in with 14.5 ppg and 9.1 rpg. Mykal Riley (12.6 ppg) and Ronald Steele (10.8 ppg) round out one of the most talented starting units in the nation. In the ugly loss to Auburn earlier this week, Alabama shot just 38.3 percent from the floor, including 5-of-19 from three-point range. Also, the squad finished with six assists against 17 turnovers and scored a mere six points from the foul line. Steele scored 19 points on the strength of his 5-of-9 shooting from three-point range, and Davidson finished with 18 points and 11 rebounds in the loss.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
