The Sweet Sixteen is here for Alabama basketball. How fans can watch the Tide learn its seed in the NCAA Tournament.

TAMPA − Alabama basketball has made it to the Sweet 16 after dispatching Texas Tech on Sunday night at Benchmark International Arena, 90-65. With impressive 3-point shooting and even more impressive defense, the Crimson Tide knocked off the No. 5-seeded Red Raiders with ease.

Alabama was led by senior guard Latrell Wrightsell, Jr. , who scored a game-high 24 points and connected on six 3-pointers. The Crimson Tide's third-round NCAA Tournament game marks the fourth consecutive year the UA has reached at least the Sweet 16.

It's been an impressive weekend for coach Nate Oats, as Alabama played without its second-leading scorer in the suspended Aden Holloway. Can UA advance further? The Crimson Tide will face No.
