To be honest, they knew what was at stake last year too. They laid an egg down the stretch.

Yeah they did. But I really don't think Avery preached about making the tourney last year. He mentioned it barely when interviewed last year after a game I think, but he never made a big deal about the tourney. Now before this year, he gets those shirts made for the team. That means it's a goal, and he may preach about it a little more. Just up to how much this team wants it. That's all it comes down to.

Y'all keep assuming we're just going to beat Ole Miss. They are definitely underrated. They aren't world beaters but they are better than given credit for. They gave Florida and Baylor fits and swept Auburn. That game worries me. Road games are always tough, so a loss to UT wouldn't surprise me but we have to hold serve at home and that game is not a gimmee

We could play a decent game and still lose any of the 4 games left.

Gonna be one hell of a finish to the regular season. I'm interested to see how Coach handles this stretch and how the team responds.

Would have been nice for the UGA game to be on Tuesday instead of Thursday.

Yeah it's pretty lame that we get a Thursday game before one of the longest road trips of the season to TAMU

OT: The Pelican fans that are happy about Cousins are in for a huge let down. That guy is a cancer. I didn't want him at Bama because I knew the shite he pulled at Erwin High School. Cal did a great job keeping him out of trouble for a year.

From a scan of the available tickets on rolltide.com looks like about 1,000 tickets available for Thursday. All in the top 12 rows and scattered singles.

Mark Fox said Maten more than likely won't play again in the regular season.

Sucks, Maten is a really good player. Wish he was healthy on Friday morning.

Alabama women win at Auburn on a buzzer beater. 2nd straight Top 50 RPI win. They have 3 Top 50 wins and only 1 100+ loss.

Move to 17-10 (5-9)

I hope we are starting to turn the corner. It sucks that our administration let WBB get as bad as it was.

Have ticked up each of the last 3 years. No idea what the ceiling is, but hopefully next year both the men and women can break out of the NIT rut.

The women have no shot at the Dance?

Nah, their OOC was atrocious and they're 5-9 in the SEC. Their RPI is like 120.

Then they'll just have to win the conference tourney.

You say they're 5-9 in conference and AU is no better in conference but when I was watching the game they had AU in. I know more goes in yo it just saying.
