We gotta get hot or we’re done. Duke is legit no doubt.

Horrible mishap. No two ways about it.


It was but two guys thought the one guy was gonna get it and that one guy got snatched by a Duke player.

Auburn was beating the hell out of Duke at Duke, before Duke won.


Auburn had a lead early then Duke took over and Auburn was chasing the rest if the game.

Just need to hope and pray we start making 3s

I think we all underestimated Duke since they play in the weak ACC.

I think Bama just needs to sell out on transition 3s. Duke is showing a little fatigue

It's going to take the best half of basketball Alabama has played all year to win this tonight.

Duke has gotten into a bad habit of letting teams claw their way back in the game the last month or so.

We’ve had some dumb turnovers. Take that out of the equation we’re right in it even without being hot from 3 like the other night.

I wonder if Oats sits Sears like he did last month when he was cold. Duke has him locked down. Different situation but something has to change.

That missed rebound made 3 by Duke was a momentum killer...but if Bama doesn't fix these missed switches and back door cuts, it won't matter

Well we lost the first half now we have to beat them by 10 to win! I don’t see it happening. Unfortunately.
We are making too many mistakes, can’t do that in the Elite 8 against great teams.
If we suddenly start hitting 3s and not get out schemed on defense we can hope against hope.
Hit 3s, Hit FTs. Get stops . That’s the recipe.
Man I don’t to lose this game. Come on guys rise up.

Shoot, if we don't miss a dunk, a bunny and a layup, we are in this thing.

Does anyone else find "Bowtie man" annoying. He gets on my last nerve.

Florida is the only team with a shot at beating Duke assuming both teams play reasonably well.


This.

I’m glad we aren’t down by more than 9 as well, but it would take a massive anomaly for us to outscore this team by 10 in the 2nd half. People on this board wanted to downplay how good Duke was and downvote those who were trying to be real about it.

Anyone is beatable, but Duke would have to go into a shell and start missing shots while turning the ball over carelessly for us to get back in this one.

We just have to shoot better. Take some of that magic from the other night.

It wasn’t just that, it was acting like we’ve never seen a back cut before.

The guards got absolutely humiliated in the 1H.

We clean up the defense and have an average night outside shooting it’s a totally different half.
