URI is looking to get back on track after a suffering a tough loss at Maryland. This game at The Ryan Center is finishing up a home & home series in which Alabama won the opening game 2 years ago at home, 68-64. Dowtin, Cyril, & Fatts are the only members of this current team that played in the last match-up. Dowtin is hoping for a better shooting performance than the last game where he shot 2-11 at Alabama. Alabama is a guard heavy team, so we won’t have the height issues like we faced with Maryland. Alabama has a new coach this season, Nate Oats, who coached at Buffalo the last few years & as most of us already know, he was EC Matthews’ high school coach in Michigan.
