2023 March Madness odds: Sweet 16 betting lines for Alabama vs. San Diego State

This is Alabama’s ninth trip to the Sweet 16 and is seeking its first Elite Eight appearance since 2004.

Beyond that? Well, that’s where this Crimson Tide team is expected make history.

Led by NBA Draft darling Brandon Miller, No. 1 Alabama (31-5) has a chance of reaching its first Final Four in school history.

That’s if the Crimson Tide can get past this weekend’s action in Louisville. Fifth-seeded San Diego State (29-6) stands immediately in their path on Friday.

If Alabama advances, it would face the winner of (6) Creighton vs. (15) Princeton on Sunday.

Miller, arguably the nation’s top freshman and a potential top-five pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, has played unevenly in the first two rounds, with a combined 19 points on 5-of-22 shooting.

That’s a far cry from his usual dominance (19.1 points, 8.2 rebounds for a season average).

It’s mattered little in NCAA Tournament blowouts over Texas A&M-Corpus Christi and Maryland. San Diego State, however, has only lost once since the start of February.

Alabama is a solid betting favorite (-7.5 via DraftKings Sportsbook), but the Crimson Tide need Miller playing at an elite level again for this run to reach Houston and the Final Four next week.
