24 turnovers and how many by Ingram? Half. Why is even handling the ball so much. Why would a team foul him when he is the only free throw shooter Bama has. Just stand around him until he turns it over.

If we could just get all our guys to look as comfortable at the line as Donta Hall does, we'd be fine. Feels weird to say that.

Petty needs to step up if this is going to be his main shot. Otherwise, make an extra pass and feed the post.


Unfortunately, his passes are just as inaccurate as his shots right now.

3 of our next 4 games are against lottery type big men. This is where Hall and Giddens have got to show out if they want to get to the next level.

Huh? Am I misunderstanding what you're saying? Ingram had 4 turnovers last night.

The next time someone calls me out for being negative about Jalen Hurts, I'm just going to direct them to this thread. It's like everyone is surprised that we're not undefeated and outscoring every team by 50 on the backs of some freshmen.

Sexton was hurt practically the entire game. Who else would you want handling the ball? Avery Johnson Jr? He can't dribble against any pressure. John Petty? He can't dribble period.

It is comical that Petty was considered a one and done type player at some point

Honestly, has anyone compared our FT shooting at home and away? I'm curious if our rims too tight or loose.

Giddens has had at least one that didn't even touch the rim

I can only assume you didn't watch the game at all.

Ingram a turnover machine? He played 37 of the game's 40 minutes and had a whopping 4 turnovers. That's a turnover every 9.25 game minutes. Sexton played 17 minutes and turned it over 3 times (one per 5.67 minutes), Petty had 5 turnovers in 34 minutes, Hall 5 in 29 minutes, and Norris had 1 in 17 minutes. So among the starters, all but Norris turned it over more often than Ingram.

Ingram is the only free throw shooter Bama has? He started 1-5 and finished 6-11 which was the worst percentage of any Bama player that went to the line last night.

Quite literally everything you said is completely wrong.

It's a shame we aren't playing Florida right now. They've been in a real rut since that Duke loss

I think we need 19 wins. That's 12-10 the rest of the way.
