Last week, the Alabama Crimson Tide lost a high-profile home game to the Auburn Tigers. Auburn is fighting with Duke as the top future market favorite with the College Basketball lines. Next is Alabama, which is fighting for its second consecutive Final Four berth after making it for the first time in history. On Saturday night, Alabama will host the Kentucky Wildcats, who are in a solid position to make the 2025 NCAA Tournament. First-year head coach and Kentucky alum Edward Pope is winning converts. Of course, Pope is popular for replacing the hated John Calipari.
