## Resource

Alabama’s basketball team is locking in a major showdown against Houston in the 2026 Jimmy V Classic at Madison Square Garden — part of a stacked doubleheader with Duke vs. Georgia. With a loaded 2026-27 schedule already including a home game against Seton Hall and appearances in the C.M. Newton Classic and Vegas’ Players Era Tournament (featuring Gonzaga, Michigan, and Tennessee), the Crimson Tide is clearly building toward national relevance. Their recent three-game win streak against Houston — including a November 2024 victory — adds fuel to the fire. This early scheduling of high-profile matchups signals serious ambition and resume-building for NCAA tournament contention. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
