- KenPom Ranking: 10
- ESPN Power Rankings: 4
All those rankings are well respected and crafted by experts in the college basketball field, and they all seem to really like Alabama.

What Makes Alabama A Great Team
Alabama came into the season as the 20th-ranked team in the AP Poll, so it comes as no surprise that they are a good team, although they have exceeded expectations and become a great team.
Particularly, the play of star freshman Brandon Miller has catapulted the Tide into a whole new tier in college basketball.
Miller has averaged 17.9 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 1.7 assists per game and showed the ability to come up clutch in their comeback win over Houston.
The Antioch, Tennessee product scored six points in the final minute all at the free throw line, and showed poise that is uncommon among freshmen.
Alabama may go as far as Brandon Miller takes them, which based on the start of the season may mean a championship and a large payout for players that get in on the +2500 odds.
