The Alabama women’s basketball team is on the road again heading to Knoxville, Tenn., to visit the Volunteers on Sunday. After winning against Ole Miss, Alabama is confident to win another SEC game.

After two days off, head coach Wendell Hudson is hoping rest and practice will help his team get another conference victory.

“We’ve been getting some rest, getting some rehab and getting the team ready to go,” Hudson said. “I think it’s a good thing [we had the byes] because after being on the road in Mississippi, during the second half we were only playing six people so it worked out well to [have the byes now].”

The 83-75 win over Ole Miss boosted Alabama’s confidence to a whole new level. Now that the Tide has its first SEC win, Hudson is focusing solely on the next games one at a time.

“I think we played well in other SEC games, it’s just that we had a problem winning one but being on the road, I think everyone was excited,” Hudson said. “I told the team to take it one game at a time and to win one game at a time.”

Tennessee, currently ranked No. 9 in the country, is also coming off a win against Georgia. Though both teams are coming off a win, Alabama feels the rest will give them the edge it needs to win.

Since coming off its first conference win, the Tide has been focusing on its strategies. Among the many Alabama is focusing on, working the floor is one of the key things Hudson has been trying to improve on.

“I think the main thing is that we have been doing the same thing we have been doing but we are concentrating on ourselves and making sure that we are executing and playing the basketball game that we like to play,” Hudson said. “I think that would like to focus on the floor and hoping that we can get up and down the floor. We have been concentrating more on us instead of Tennessee.”

Walking into Tennessee won’t be easy for the Tide: The Vols are known for their crowded arenas. With that in mind, Hudson hopes to make sure his is composed when playing Tennessee.

“One of the main things against us is the crowd we’re going to play in front of in that arena,” Hudson said. “And secondly, the expectations are higher. We need to get comfortable and composed and play our game instead of theirs.”
