This upcoming Friday night, the Alabama Crimson Tide are likely faced with their toughest test yet as the Seton Hall Pirates make the trip to Coleman Coliseum.
An opponent out of the Big East, the Pirates are off to an undefeated start to the 2026-27 season under head coach Shaheen Holloway. Seton Hall currently sits at a perfect 3-0 with wins over Saint Peter's, Long Island, and Charlotte, the latter of which came on a neutral court.
Stats-wise, the Pirates currently rank No. 14 nationally in points allowed per game at only 54.7 to opponents, but the offense is a near complete opposite. The Pirates average 67 points per game, a total which ranks among the bottom of college basketball.
Here are three players to know for Seton Hall ahead of Friday's
showdown in Tuscaloosa, each of which will face the Crimson Tide for the first time.
Roddie Anderson III, Guard
A transfer guard from Xavier, Anderson is the lone Seton Hall player currently averaging double figures this season, sitting at a career-high 17 per game on 39.4% shooting from the field, as well as an impressive 55.6% from three-point range. The graduate student is also averaging 2.3 rebounds and two steals a game, as well as shooting 68.2% at the free throw line.
Elijah Fisher, Guard
Fisher is a returning starter for the Pirates who is currently averaging 8.3 points per game over three games, as well as leading Seton Hall in rebounds at 5.7 a contest. The fifth-year senior guard is shooting 43.8% from the free throw line, as well as a career-high 90.9% at the free throw line.
Devin Williams, Forward
Williams, a transfer forward from Florida Atlantic, is averaging a career-high eight points per game this season over 42.1% shooting from the field. The junior is one of the top names off Seton Hall's bench, and is also averaging 4.3 rebounds and two assists per game, as well as shooting 72.7% at the free throw line.
