Alabama wins their largest SEC win in team history.

No. 2 Alabama (18-2, 8-0) remains undefeated in conference play with a hard-fought 66-63 win over Mississippi State (12-8, 1-7) in Coleman Coliseum on Wednesday night.

The Tide showed superb mental fortitude in its hard fought win over the Vanderbilt Commodores Tuesday in Nashville.

Alabama is now 4-0 in SEC play and will take on the LSU Tigers on Saturday in Coleman Coliseum at 3 p.m. CT.

The Crimson Tide snapped the Razorbacks' 17-game home winning streak and kept themselves on top of the SEC standings. The Tide's 4-0 start in the SEC is its best start since 1987 in conference play.

The Crimson Tide will hit the road for its next contest against the Arkansas Razorbacks. The Tide takes on the Razorbacks in a clash of SEC West powers on Wednesday, Jan. 11 at 6 p.m. CT.

Two Alabama freshmen had career-best games on Saturday afternoon.

After pulling ahead by double digits in the final minute of the game, the Crimson Tide faced a barrage of scoring from Memphis and finished the game with a 91-88 victory.

Alabama and No. 11 is now the highest ranked SEC team in the AP Poll through just four weeks. The Tide has climbed nine spots from its preseason No. 20 ranking. Success in the second half of non-conference play is crucial to starting the SEC schedule on the right foot and ensuring steady improvement through the season.

Brandon Miller has already proven himself Tide-worthy during his first three games of the season and he is looking like one of Alabama's next top players.
