Before Alabama basketball faced Mississippi State, Nate Oats turned to scripture. Here's the verse he shared with the Crimson Tide.

No. 5 Vanderbilt takes on the Mississippi State Bulldogs after Mikayla Blakes scored 25 points in the Commodores' 91-51 win over the Texas A&M Aggies.

Led by NBA Draft prospect Labaron Philon, the Crimson Tide rebounded from a loss to Texas over the weekend with a win on the road.

STARKVILLE, Miss. (KLTV) - Former Pine Tree Pirate Dealyn Evans signed with Mississippi State Tuesday. Evans entered the transfer portal on Jan. 8 after spending two years at Texas A&M. Evans played sparingly as a freshman and was nominated for the team’s Defensive Scout Team Player of the Year. Last year, in 13 games, Evans had eight tackles.

After a similar 2025 bill failed when the House added sports betting provisions, Mississippi senators are making another attempt to ban sweepstakes casinos.

Heading into Tuesday's matchup, Alabama is expected to be without at least three players. Freshmen Davion Hannah and Collins Onyejika are both out for an indefinite period of time due to medical conditions, and graduate guard Latrell Wrightsell Jr. is "probably doubtful" to miss his second game in a row with a right leg injury.
