With a majority of the attention across the Alabama fanbase is on March Madness, let’s not forget that the Crimson Tide are also set to host a huge SEC baseball series this weekend in Tuscaloosa.

That series will come against a team which has given Alabama problems in recent years, the Florida Gators. Florida comes to Tuscaloosa for a three-game set against Alabama, with the Gators currently ranked No. 14 nationally, per the latest USA TODAY Sports College Baseball Coaches Poll.

The Gators also sit at 19-3 overall (3-0 SEC), and have won each of their last six games.

Alabama, who is sitting just outside the Top 25 polls nationally, is also in the midst of a recent struggle, as the Tide are currently riding a four-game losing skid that has included a series sweep at Kentucky last weekend, as well as a midweek loss Tuesday night at South Alabama.

Alabama baseball vs. Florida prediction

Prediction: Alabama drops series, 2-1 – The Gators are a team which has given Alabama problems in recent years, as the Crimson Tide have won only three of the 11 meetings between the two dating back to the 2022 season. As a result, Florida is the pick to take the series this weekend in Tuscaloosa, but a scenario where Alabama takes two-of-three would not surprise me either.
