Bama is 7-7 in Quadrant 1 games.

At 6-7, we were 13th in the Country w/ Q1 games.

RPI is 37.

Only 11 missed shots in the second half, and one was Lawson just throwing it up. That's efficient basketball.

Just rewatched the 2nd half.We can shite on Petty all we want but he balled out on defense in the 2nd half and his shot is close to falling, he had 2 or 3 that were halfway down and popped out.

If Alabama and Arky win tomorrow we will have avenged 3 of those last 5 loses with a chance at a 4th and SEC Tourney.

Every one of those teams we lost to were solid. It's just how we lost some of them.

The effort was there today. It looked like the big games they got hyped for before the 5 game losing streak.

Lunardi has us as a 9 right now playing....Creighton again. Id love to get revnge on them because Releford was fouled. And then we would play Virginia in the 2nd round which IMO plays our kind of style.

While I'm just happy to be in and don't care who we play, I think Virginia would be a very tough out for us if we got to them...their defense is smothering...

Virginia absolutely does not play our kind of style . That'd be one of the worst second round draws we could possibly get. You have to be patient, physical, not turnover prone, and capable of scoring a lot of your points from outside to present a serious matchup problem for them. We are none of those things.

I’m excited for the potential this team has, my only hope is they can unleash that second half and sustain it. God if we won 2 games in the tournament it would epic.

Morning boys. I think we do it today.

I like the adjustments Avery has made. I think he simply has decided that if he goes down, it is with Sexton. Less minutes for Jr. and rightfully so. Probably told him, "You're not worth getting fired over, son." I like it though ..

If, and it's a big if, we can rebound and not give them so many second and third chances, I'll feel really good. Obviously without Hall that's going to be a large task.


*Assuming Sexton continues to play out of his mind.

yep, it needs to be a total team effort on the boards today. We need to out effort them. Hopefully Petty will think he is playing at home today since its the 3rd game on that court in 3 days.
