3 bold predictions for Alabama's Top 25 matchup against Texas

Alabama women's basketball will conclude the regular season Sunday afternoon at home against Texas. Here are three bold takes for the game.

Alabama women's basketball will host the Texas Longhorns at Coleman Coliseum on Sunday in the regular season finale of the 2025-26 campaign.

The Tide enter the matchup fresh off an underwhelming performance against the Vanderbilt Commodores in Nashville, as the Commodores defeated the Tide by a final score of 85-60. A win over Texas would prove to play a massive role in SEC Tournament seeding moving forward, as the Tide will look to bounce back with authority at home against the Longhorns on Sunday.

Here are three bold takes for Alabama's top 25 matchup against Texas.

Jessica Timmons stays hot, records 30+ points

Timmons is widely regarded as a top guard in all of women's college basketball this season. The star playmaker struggled during the Tide's loss in Nashville, as Timmons shot just 22% from behind the arc.

The senior currently averages an impressive 16.6 points and 4.6 rebounds, as Timmons could quickly find herself having another big time performance against the Longhorns in Tuscaloosa.

Karly Weathers hits 5+ three pointers

Weathers has been widely regarded as a top shooter in the entire SEC throughout the month of Feburary. The star guard shot 60% from behind the arc in the loss to Vanderbilt, as Weathers will look to stay red hot from deep against the Longhorns on Sunday.

Weathers currently averages 9.7 points and 6.1 rebounds this season, as the talented senior continues to play a massive role for the Tide on both ends of the floor in 2025-26.

Ta'Mia Scott continues to shine, records 20+ points

Scott has played a key role on the offensive end of the floor throughout the entire season. The talented guard currently averages 9.7 points and 3.4 rebounds per game, as Scott has been on an offensive tear throughout the second half of SEC play this season.

The star senior could quickly begin to shine once again against Texas, as Scott will look to end the 2025-26 regular season with another 20+ point performance.

Alabama will host the Texas Longhorns at 11 a.m. CT on Sunday morning, as the Tide will look to end the regular season with a massive win over the Longhorns.
