NOTES

  • Alabama is playing in five invitational tournaments. Three of the five are ones they are hosting. The competition is mostly of the cupcake variety. A single loss in any of these tourneys will be highly disappointing.
  • The Crimson Tide’s biggest challenge comes early on in the Clearwater Invitational, a tournament that has ascended to the heights of a showcase event. It is the Maui Invitational of softball. This year’s opponents are last season’s WCWS tournament 12-seed Duke (44-11), WCWS runner-up UCLA (51-10), AAC Champs UCF (49-14), Indiana (27-22), and powerhouse and Tide nemesis Florida State (54-7). Don’t expect the Crimson Tide to win all these games with a rebuilding team. Three wins would be satisfactory.
  • Another challenging tournament will be the Bevo Classic with two games against WCWS participant Texas (47-22-1). Wisconsin (30-21) will be no pushover. Sun Belt runner-up Texas State (38-19) is a good non-Power 5 program.
  • On Tuesday, March 14, Alabama will travel to Florence, AL to face North Alabama. The Lions are an up and coming program. Last year, they went 40-20 and made it to the third round of the postseason National Invitational Softball Championship - which is the softball equivalent of the NIT.
  • Another in-state road trip, takes Bama to Birmingham to play SoCOn runner-up Samford (34-19) on Tuesday April 11. I recommend jumping on either of these game tickets as soon as they come available. They go fast.
  • Alabama also takes an odd midweek trip to Huntington, WV to play Marshall (35-18) and ASUN Champs Liberty (44-18) on a Tuesday. Coach Patrick Murphy pulled a similar stunt last season traveling to Bowling Green, KY for a game with Western Kentucky. They lost and the whole season basically unraveled from there.
  • As for SEC action, the Tide gets Arkansas, Auburn, and LSU at home. Back-to-back road trips to Knoxville, TN and Columbia, MO in late March could be an issue. They miss Florida, Kentucky, and Georgia all together.
