Alabama basketball ranked in coaches' poll, just outside of AP top 25

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Following a 4-0 start to SEC play, Alabama basketball is finally starting to get some national recognition. The Crimson Tide (9-3, 4-0) was tied for No. 24 in the latest Ferris Coaches Poll on Monday. Alabama also sits just outside the top 25 in The Associated Press’ latest poll.

Alabama is one of three SEC teams in the coaches poll, joining No. 10 Tennessee (9-1, 3-1) and No. 16 Missouri (7-2, 1-2). The Tide handed Tennessee its only loss earlier this month with a 71-63 victory in Knoxville, Tenn.

Alabama received 173 voting points in the AP Top 25, the most among non-ranked teams. The Tide is 8 points away from No. 25 UConn at No. 25.

Alabama is riding a five-game winning streak, including a 94-90 win at Auburn over the weekend. The Tide will travel to unranked Kentucky on Tuesday at 8 p.m. CT.

It will be interesting to see how they fare against some of the tougher teams in the SEC which is loaded. I did see where as of today they are projected in the NCAA tournament which would be a huge accomplishment.

If we would've beat Western Kentucky, we would likely be top 20.
