St. John’s Red Storm Face No. 15 Alabama Crimson Tide at Madison Square Garden
St. John’s University will face off against the No. 15 University of Alabama Crimson Tide today at Madison Square Garden in New York City, marking a significant early-season test for the Red Storm.
The Red Storm began their season with a victory against Quinnipiac, improving to 1-0, but will encounter a considerably stronger opponent in Alabama. This game offers St. John’s an opportunity to prove their potential against a ranked SEC team. Star transfer Ian Jackson led St. John’s against Quinnipiac with 15 points, a performance that followed less impressive showings in exhibition games.
The matchup is scheduled for November 8, 2025, and will be closely watched by college basketball fans as both teams look to establish themselves as contenders this season. For more on college basketball rankings, see the official NCAA website.
St. John’s is hoping to build on their recent success and make a run in the Big East Conference; a strong showing against Alabama could significantly boost their profile. You can find more information about the St. John’s Red Storm here.
