The Crimson Tide head coach said he's happy with the defensive effort the team has shown so far, but still has areas to improve.
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- The No. 2 Alabama basketball program keeps its season going on Friday night as they welcome former Crimson Tide assistant and now second-year Arkansas State head coach Bryan Hodgson into Coleman Coliseum for the second game of the year for both programs.
Alabama performed well defensively in the opening game of the season against UNC-Asheville as they held the Bulldogs to just .75 points per possession. The effort lands the Crimson Tide inside the top 25 in defensive efficiency to open the year, so where can the team look to improve over the next two games?
