Stanford at Alabama

A long road trip for Stanford as Alabama plays host in a second-round National Invitation Tournament game. Stanford is on a 3-6 ATS run, and isn't a good road team at 5-6. They played at Missouri of the SEC this season and lost 78-70, along with road losses at NC State, USC, UCLA, Colorado, Arizona and Oregon. The Cardinal is 3-8 ATS following a win and 1-4 ATS against the SEC. Alabama (22-12) is hot at the right time, on a 6-1 ATS run, covering in a loss to mighty Florida in the SEC tourney and roasting Northeastern their last game, 62-42. The Crimson Tide was a 2011 NIT finalist and a No. 1 seed this season anchored by a terrific defense. Alabama hasn't lost at home since December 30 against Tulane and the Crimson Tide is 5-0 ATS in their last five games against a team with a winning record. Take Alabama.
