Alabama vs Maryland Prediction | March Madness Expert Picks
Simply, Alabama did what they were supposed to do against Texas A&M-CC in the first round. It was a good warmup game, and now the Crimson Tide must continue its momentum against the Terrapins.
Maryland, on the other hand, found itself in a battle with West Virginia. The Mountaineers got off to a fast start and dominated the glass, but the Terrapins stayed out of foul trouble and were efficient on offense, which allowed them to hang on for the two-point win. They will have to be much sharper in order to hang around with Alabama.
Unfortunately for them, we don’t believe that will happen. The Crimson Tide is playing too well right now. Alabama will also be the more talented team on the floor and playing in front of their fans in Alabama. Look for them to take care of business and punch their tickets to the Sweet 16.
