Alabama Crimson Tide preseason athletic updates
Overview
Alabama's athletic programs are preparing for various preseason exhibitions and matchups. In men's basketball, the Crimson Tide, ranked No. 20 in the AP Top 25, faces roster challenges due to injuries and suspensions involving Aden Holloway, Anderson Diaz, Jaxon Richardson, and Preston Murphy Jr.
In a recent exhibition match titled ‘The Feud’ at Legacy Arena in Birmingham, Alabama defeated Auburn 87-85. Despite the absence of guards Anderson Diaz and Aden Holloway, the Crimson Tide was led by Amari Allen with 23 points and freshman Qayden Samuels with 20 points. The high-intensity game featured multiple scuffles involving players and coaches Nate Oats and Steven Pearl. Auburn head coach Steven Pearl noted the atmosphere felt like a ‘Sweet 16 game in October,’ while Nate Oats emphasized the importance of the rivalry for identifying improvements before the regular season.
In baseball, Alabama is set to host UAB for a fall exhibition at Sewell Thomas Stadium following a split series between the two programs during the 2026 season.
