The Alabama Crimson Tide will be playing at the Tennessee Volunteers this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Tennessee has a slightly better record than Alabama. Also, Tennessee is one of the best home teams in the SEC, so that should be very helpful to them.
Today, Austin Hyatt (right handed) will be pitching for the Crimson Tide and Nick Hernandez (left handed) will be pitching for the Volunteers.
Alabama is playing its second straight Southeastern Conference road series this weekend when they travel to Tennessee.
The Crimson Tide simply do not play good on the road and that is not helpful when they are playing at a good home team.
The Tide’s faithful hopes that will change as they bring their Alabama Crimson Tide merchandise to the games, in a hope that they can turn their season around so they can make the playoffs.
The Volunteers are 5-1 in SEC home games and 16-3 overall at home this season.
Alabama will be returning to play Tennessee for the first time since they won the 2006 SEC game that went down to the wire on the last day of the regular season. Also, they had to have Georgia beat Kentucky (which they did in 2 of the last 3 games) to get the crown.
Well both teams know that they have similar records. Alabama know they do not have a good road record. Tennessee know they have a good home record. Something has to give. Who will win this 3 game series in Knoxville? I guess we have to wait and find out.
