Current Records: Davidson 8-2; Alabama 9-2

What to Know

The Davidson Wildcats and the #10 Alabama Crimson Tide will compete for holiday cheer at 7 p.m. ET Tuesday at Legacy Arena. These two teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.

The Radford Highlanders typically have all the answers at home, but this past Saturday Davidson proved too difficult a challenge. The Wildcats made easy work of the Highlanders and carried off a 74-54 victory. Davidson got double-digit scores from four players: guard Foster Loyer (24), guard Michael Jones (15), forward Hyunjung Lee (14), and forward Luka Brajkovic (12).

Meanwhile, the Jacksonville State Gamecocks typically have all the answers at home, but this past Saturday the Crimson Tide proved too difficult a challenge. Bama snuck past Jacksonville State with a 65-59 win. Bama's guard Keon Ellis did his thing and dropped a double-double on 20 points and ten rebounds.

The Wildcats are the clear underdogs, so they're hoping it's the size of the fight that determines this one. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread, however, as they are currently on a seven-game streak of ATS wins.

Davidson is now 8-2 while the Crimson Tide sit at 9-2. A couple offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Davidson enters the contest with a 48.70% field goal percentage, good for 24th best in college basketball. Bama has displayed some offensive firepower of their own as they come into the game boasting the 11th most points per game in college basketball at 83.4.
