re: 2017-18 Alabama Basketball Season Thread: 20-16 (10-11)

Yeah, that wasn’t my opinion. Fran said that multiple times during the broadcast.

Imo, Herbert could easily be drafted as soon as next year.

Kid has a serious all around game.

There was something like 58 NBA scouts at the game.

If any didn’t know about him before, they certainly have notes and are aware of him now.

Kentucky came back from down 17 in the second half at #7 West Virginia to win. That gave the SEC the win over the Big 12. The SEC had 6 wins and the Big 12 had 4. Definitely helps the perception of the SEC when discussing how good the conference is

And the wins were over the best teams. It’s not like we beat their cellar dwellers: TCU, Oklahoma, West Virginia, and Okie State all fell. Their wins were UGA, Ole Miss, USCe and aTm. Advantage SEC

100% chance we don't show up against Missouri and lose. This is Alabama basketball.

even AJ made that tough layup which was big at the time.

Subsequently, he had the most awkward traveling jump shot I've ever seen

I dunno, I feel like with Sexton back at 100%, guys figuring things out, Mizzou being offensively pathetic.........

Yea we'll lose 56-54.

Missouri just had a PG suspended and they’re down to only 1 PG on the roster.

Now they traveled to play Miss State tonight and Mizzou lost by 12.

We get them at home. We’re 10-1 at home. I just don’t see us losing that one

Our remaining games from least to most difficult

1. LSU
2. Missouri
3. Arkansas
4. @State
5. @A&M
6. UT
7. Florida
8. @Kentucky
9. @Florida
10. @Auburn


I agree with this EXCEPT the A&M game will be easiest of all....

I think because it's on the road, it'll be tougher.

What's crazy is LSU may be the easiest team left on our schedule, and that's still a game we could lose. Speaks volumes for the level of competition this year. Reminds me of the B10 a few years ago.

I wonder what our RPI would be if UT-A wasn't 120 or spots lower and Minnesota wasn't 80 spots lower than a year ago. Can't complain about the SOS, but it stinks to see teams you thought would help your resume suck.
