We shot the ball like top 15-20 teams do. Hopefully something has clicked with Wiley and he starts to impose his will. Created so many open shots, and took the pressure off everyone.

We had a ton of great passes to cutters. Hopefully our guys recognize the offense works

I don't know. USC has a way this year of getting opponents on nights where they can't hit water on a boat.

I'd kill to go on the road and beat TCU and USC next week. Talk about cementing us on the bubble. It has to click sometime.

I just don't know if we can defend Thornwell and Dozier. We don't do well with athletic perimeter players

This is a big maturity test for the team. It'll be easy to have a let down game against a good team like Carolina.

The Kentucky hangover is real. We are the only conference team to win their next game after playing Kentucky. USC is playing UK as I type. Js

Alabama mad about the foul differential today yet they were in the bonus in the 2nd half at the 1430 mark. And then they didn't attack the basket or anything offensively to force us to foul.

Essentially, the foul differential was their own fault

Bingo. They didn't get as many calls because they didn't put themselves in situations to draw fouls.

It's starting to click for us offensively. Johnson and Dunans have really stepped up their play. Now we just need to stop giving up so many easy buckets.

If they've figured out how to play with Wiley, we can make a run.

I'm not counting on a win against USC but it could be a nice surprise.

I think they're starting to realize that the refs are calling every little bump if you're attacking the basket, so they're driving more. It's working and we need to continue to do that. It puts Wiley in a position to get put back buckets too.

Did anyone hear Wiley's interview after the game? Dude sounds like a grown man.

Anyone else not notice that Lang didn't play at all?

Also, who was the celebrity N?

Yeah, Bruce said he wanted more minutes for Dunans/Heron/Purifoy. The N was Kendall Simmons.
