Having lost three of their last five games, Alabama wasn't able to ride a momentum heading into the tourney. The Crimson Tide's defense hasn't been good this season, with their 106.0 defensive rating ranked 216th in the country.
Still, Alabama packs an 11th-ranked 118.7 offensive rating. Plus, they are first in the country in pace with 76.2. With star guard Mark Sears leading the ship, Alabama likes to run up the score.
As for Robert Morris, they've won 10 straight games on their way to the Horizon Tourney Championship. Kam Woods is the marked man for the Colonials, as he's averaging 15.1 points and 5.1 assists this season. They reached at least 79 points in five of the last six games.
