Projected seed: 2
Alabama's status as a projected one seed stems from its potent offense, which is among the best in the country, highlighted by impressive victories over top competition like Houston and Illinois. The team's ability to score consistently against formidable foes, combined with a solid performance against North Carolina, showcases its offensive firepower. However, their defensive rankings raise concerns, particularly notable in close losses to ranked teams such as Purdue and Oregon. Upcoming matchups against strong opponents like Oklahoma and Kentucky will be crucial; wins in these games could solidify their top spot, while losses could jeopardize their tournament seeding, especially considering the strength of the Southeastern Conference.
