The Alabama men’s basketball team will tip off its 2025-26 season in less than a month. And on Tuesday, the SEC and ESPN announced the start times and TV channels for its SEC games.

The Crimson Tide will open the season, Year 7 under Nate Oats, against North Dakota on Nov. 3, and after 13 non-conference games, SEC play will begin two months later on Jan. 3 with a home game against the Kentucky Wildcats. That game tips off at 11 a.m. CT on ESPN.

In addition to Alabama’s 18-game conference slate, ESPN also announced times for Crimson Tide games against Purdue (Nov. 13 at 6 p.m. on ESPN2), Clemson (Dec. 3 at 6:15 p.m. on ESPNU), UTSA (Dec. 7 at 1 p.m. on SEC Network) and Arizona (Dec. 13 at 8:30 p.m. on ESPN).
