Alabama Crimson Tide Set to Challenge Syracuse Orange at JMA Wireless Dome

As the Alabama Crimson Tide Women's Basketball team prepares to face off against the Syracuse Orange at the JMA Wireless Dome, fans are buzzing with anticipation. The upcoming game promises to be a thrilling encounter, and based on recent performances, the Crimson Tide have positioned themselves as formidable opponents.


Syracuse Orange VS Alabama Crimson Tide

The Alabama team has been on an impressive run, showcasing their ability to dominate on both ends of the court. Their last game against the Lady Flames on November 26th was a testament to their prowess, with a decisive 72-47 victory that left no room for doubt about their capabilities. The team's shooting accuracy was particularly noteworthy; they hit 54 percent from two-point range and maintained an excellent free throw percentage of 85 percent. Moreover, they capitalized on turnovers scoring 22 points off them and dominated second-chance points with 16.


Defensively, Alabama has been just as effective. In that same game against Liberty University's Lady Flames, they managed eight steals and three blocks while holding their opponents to a mere 34 percent field goal percentage. This defensive solidity is something that Syracuse must be wary of if they hope to come out ahead in this matchup.


However, it would be remiss not to acknowledge the challenge posed by Syracuse Orange. In one of their recent games against Gonzaga Bulldogs on November 25th, despite losing by ten points (58-68), Alabama demonstrated resilience by rallying in the fourth quarter with a strong finish scoring 21 points which could serve as momentum going into this next game.


Looking back further at another past performance where Alabama triumphed over Louisville Cardinals (ranked #20) with a scoreline of 78-73 on November 24th shows that this team can hold its own even when facing ranked opponents—a good sign as they head into enemy territory.


In conclusion, while acknowledging Syracuse's home advantage and competitive spirit—the stats speak volumes about what we can expect from this encounter: A determined Alabama side ready to extend their winning streak through strategic playmaking and robust defense.


Fans should mark their calendars for December 1st when these two teams will clash at JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse NY; tip-off is scheduled for midnight Eastern Time (ET). There are no broadcast networks listed for coverage yet but stay tuned for updates so you won't miss any action from what promises to be an exciting game!
