Vanderbilt women's basketball ranked No. 23 in the AP poll released Monday morning after defeating Alabama, 66-64, in Tuscaloosa on Sunday. The Commodores (17-4, 4-3 SEC) have been receiving votes in both the AP and USA TODAY Coaches Polls for most of the season but have yet to crack the rankings.

In the contest, Alabama went on to be upset by the Commodores, falling by a final score of 66-64 to an unranked Commodores team. With this result, the Crimson Tide now sit at 17-4 overall for the 2024-25 season, as well as 4-3 in SEC play.

The No. 19 Alabama women's basketball team came up short on Sunday, losing 66-64 to Vanderbilt at home. The Crimson Tide welcomed Sarah Ashlee Barker back into the lineup for the first time in five games.
