SBG Global Opening Line: Georgetown -7.5 , Total TBA
Georgetown will try and remain undefeated as they face Alabama in Birmingham on Wednesday night. The Hoyas will look for a bounce back game from All-American center Roy Hibbert on Wednesday. He had only 7 points on Saturday but the Hoyas defeated Fairfield 61-49. Hibbert averages 14.4 points per game. SBG Global reports that early NCAA Basketball betting has the public taking Georgetown on the Road.
"Overall as a team they're a pretty good team," Alabama junior guard Brandon Hollinger said. "They're a top five team, so we've got to prepare very hard for these guys." Alabama is facing its second Top 10 team in a week. They lost to Texas A&M last Wednesday. The Crimson Tide have a big man of their own in Richard Hendrix. He is a preseason All-SEC selection and is averaging 21.8 points and 12.8 rebounds per game. "I think that when you go through Richard Hendrix's career, he's not going to play against very many guys like (Hibbert)," said Alabama coach Mark Gottfried, "There are not a lot of players like him so we need to get ready for that more than anything."
