Alabama will take a 7-game winning streak into Saturday’s matchup against Tennessee. The offensive side of the ball is a big reason for the Tide’s February surge.
Alabama has put up huge offensive numbers from a variety of lineups this season, particularly against high-level competition. Per CBB Analytics, Alabama has the highest offensive rating among 3-player lineup combos against Quad 1 opponents this year.
Aden Holloway, Amari Allen and Aiden Sherrell make up the nation’s top offensive lineup under those parameters with a 137.4 offensive rating in 116 minutes, per CBB Analytics.
Alabama has a trio of different 3-man lineup combinations that land in the top-15 for this category. Coming in at No. 4 is a lineup that features Holloway, Allen and Houston Mallette.
Then, at No. 13, Holloway, Allen and Latrell Wrightsell are also in the mix with a 132.5 offensive rating. Here’s the full leaderboard from CBB Analytics:
Somewhat surprisingly, Labaron Philon does not appear in any of the 3-man combos for Alabama that are at the top of the offensive rating leaderboard. Philon leads Alabama with 21 points per game during conference play.
This level of offensive efficiency and versatility should bode well for the Crimson Tide during March Madness. Here are the latest Sweet 16 odd from Kalshi:
Alabama and Tennessee will tip off at 6 p.m. ET on Saturday night.
