Alabama vs Texas A&M CC Prediction | March Madness Expert Picks
Texas A&M-CC needed a hard-fought win over SEMO in the First Four to make it into the NCAA Tournament. Will this bit of momentum be what is needed to pull off a massive upset? Unlikely.
Alabama is a perfect 7-0 coming off of 4+ days rest, which shows they are capable of getting back in the groove and winning games. A big reason for this is the Crimson Tide’s defense, which shows up even on nights that outside shots aren’t falling. Of course, those nights are rare.
We don’t need to sugarcoat things in this March Madness predictions article. Alabama is going to destroy Texas A&M-CC. They are favored by 24.5 points, and I am willing to bet that they win by even more.
