We expect a tight game in the Charleston vs Alabama matchup in the NCAA Tournament on Friday. While Alabama has the most potent offense in the country, their defense leaves a lot to be desired. We already saw Kentucky fall in this tournament by trying to score without playing much defense. While Alabama should avoid losing outright, Charleston will keep this game within single-digits to cover the number.
