Saturday night takes us to Tuscaloosa where two of the top fifteen teams in the country open up the month of March. As the Tennessee Volunteers will take the trip down south to face off with the Crimson Tide of Alabama. This should be an action packed game, with two of the highest scoring offenses in the country facing off here in this one on Saturday evening. Both of these teams have put together incredible seasons in this game could have plenty of implications on not only the SEC regular season standings, but also the SEC conference tournament and the NCAA tournament as well. As both of these teams are to improve their seeding heading into the final week and a half of the regular season.
Tennessee has put together an incredible regular season with 22 victories in their first 28 games of the year. They would like to keep the momentum rolling throughout this game on Saturday night on the road in Tuscaloosa, as they search for their 23rd victory of the season. They need another solid performance out of Dalton Knecht if they want to grab the victory on the road against one of the top teams in the country in a hostile environment. However, he has proven time and time again that he is more than capable of stepping up to the plate when it matters the most.
He put up an incredible performance in their previous game against Auburn, and he will replicate that performance against Alabama, as Tennessee looks to close in on a regular season championship in the SEC. It has been a fantastic run for Tennessee as of late as they come into this game on a five game winning streak and they will look for a sixth consecutive victory here on Saturday night in Tuscaloosa. Tennessee has compiled plenty of blowouts throughout this five game-winning streak and they are putting up over 80 points a night on average. They will like to keep that narrative intact with another solid performance here in this one.

It has been a solid year for Alabama as well when they will look for a huge victory at home against a tough Tennessee team. As they look to keep the momentum rolling on this incredible season. Alabama has already passed the 20 win mark and they will look to add to their win column with another much-needed victory here on Saturday night at home. If they have a strong finish to the season and make a solid run through the SEC conference tournament, they could be looking at a number one seed in the NCAA tournament.
However, first they have to get past the red hot Tennessee Volunteers. As Alabama looks to snap their game win streak and pick up a victory of their own in an arena where they’ve been so tough to beat this season. Alabama comes into this game after a huge victory to snap a one game losing streak after being blown out by Kentucky the game prior. Now they will look for a second consecutive victory here on Saturday night at home as they look to keep the momentum rolling throughout the early part of March into the conference tournament. They will look to secure a top four spot in the SEC regular season standings to get themselves a double bye in the SEC conference tournament as well. A victory in this game on Saturday night would go a long way in helping them accomplish that goal.
