WHAT TO WATCH FOR: The Crimson Tide is coming off a road sweep of Missouri and is currently second in the SEC in batting average (.308), trailing LSU. They’re led by Drew Williamson, who is slashing .338/.454/.556 and has 10 home runs this year. Alabama also has endured pitching injuries early in the season, but relievers RHP Hagan Banks, LHP Alton Davis and RHP Riley Quick have emerged recently as reliable stoppers.
