The Alabama Crimson Tide competes in NCAA Men's Basketball as a part of the Southeastern Conference. Florida, LSU, and Kentucky are some notable teams from their conference. They were founded in 1912.

The name Crimson Tide came into existence when in November 1907, former Birmingham Age-Herald sports editor Hugh "Doc" Roberts described a football game between Auburn and Alabama as "crimson tide."

The current logo of the Crimson Tide is an italics letter A, surrounded by the team name in a circle. There were multiple logos before and each of them involved an elephant before it was dropped completely in 2004.
