Mark Sears, Nick Pringle and Jarin Stevenson all performed well to get the win and they will need to keep up this form if they are to get a fifth win in a row against the Buckeyes. With an offense ranked #3 nationally (57.02% field goals and 48.86% three-pointers), a defense ranked #97 nationally (39.33% field goals and 27.17% three-pointers), and a power ranking of 1, Alabama look set to preserve their form and success.

Ohio St. Buckeyes Analysis

Ohio State Buckeyes rebounded from a loss to Texas A&M with consecutive wins, and will be looking to continue their streak against Alabama, the #107 ranked team in the NCAAB. Roddy Gayle Jr., Jamison Battle and Bruce Thornton significantly contributed to their latest win. On offense, Ohio State averages 43.86% field goals, 72.34% free throws, and 25% three pointers. They also average 38.5 rebounds, 12.5 assists and 10.5 turnovers per game. On defense, they allow 41.13% field goals, 71.05% free throws, 32.08% three pointers, 37.5 rebounds, 10 defensive assists, and 7.5 turnovers per game.

Crimson Tide on a Winning Streak: Opponents Unprepared for Impressive Scoring and Defense

The Crimson Tide have won four consecutive games, averaging over 100 points per game with a field goal percentage of 55%. Their three-point shooting has been equally impressive, boasting 48% accuracy. The Crimson Tide also excel in the offensive glass, protecting the ball and ensuring ample scoring chances. In the last four games, the Buckeyes have scored 73 points per game and shot 70% from the free throw line, yet lack sufficient rebounding and extra scoring opportunities. Defensively, Ohio State has struggled against strong offensive teams and will continue to do so against a top ranked offense like the Crimson Tide. The Crimson Tide will be difficult to stop, holding opponents to under 70 points per game. It is expected that they will cover the spread in this game.
