Alabama -4

The Arkansas Razorbacks will host the No. 3 Alabama Crimson Tide tonight in Bud Walton Arena.

The Hogs have been a great home team this season, holding a 9-3 record in their own building. John Calipari has coached this team well in 2025, and they've won their two biggest games recently (at Kentucky, at Texas).

Meanwhile, Alabama has won five straight and has been absolutely sensational against the spread in conference play (7-2).

The Tide should be able to break down the Razorbacks defensively, and I expect to see some major regression from Arkansas against one of the best teams in the country.

Alabama shoots the ball extremely well and consistently attacks the paint against its opponents. The Tide are shooting 46.7% from the field this year, and Arkansas should really struggle to keep up against the Tide's fast pace.

I’ll be locking in Alabama at -4, and I could easily see it winning by double-digits tonight.

Pick: Alabama -4
