Alabama’s Ronald Steele, out for the year with a knee injury, won’t be able to travel at the end of tonight’s Georgia-Alabama basketball game.

If there’s one game that keeps coming back when you talk about last season in basketball and coming up just short of the NCAA Tournament, it was the loss at Alabama. Georgia blew a 20-point lead and a rare chance at a big SEC road win, and that buzzer-beater by Steele might have been the single most significant play of the entire season.

The Dawgs and Tide both enter tonight’s game looking for their first conference wins of the season. Georgia has struggled with inconsistent offense, and Bama has really missed Steele. The home court should give Georgia the edge, but they’ll have to play and shoot much better than they did last weekend at Mississippi State.
