Tough to see how freaking bad herb was the last 2 games. Was beyond painful to watch how bad he was

Free throws shooting is such a revealing stat.
It's a momentum killer when you can't hit.

They were just flat out tougher and more composed than us

They are just a better team. This moment was too big for us. Including Nate Oats.

I wouldn’t go that far. We were just off a little tonight and they hit a lot of tough shots. I’d say we would win 3 out of 5 vs them, at least

Great season everyone. We would have been joyous at the beginning of the season with both conference championships and an OT to potentially go to the Elite 8. Wouldn’t trade for anything.

No.. the better team missed more than half their free throws and could have coasted to victory it not for that.

It was completely retarded to put it in Herb Jones hands late


And early. You could make the argument that this game was lost in the first :40 of the game. It set the tone for the whole first half and crippled us in terms of being able to use our best defender effectively. Gave them a lot of confidence.

Hit one more free throw and Reese's 3 would have been for the win.

Oh well.

FTs cost us big time. There's always one game you lose because of FT shooting. Sucks it happened in the Sweet 16, but it happens.

Hopefully Oats can learn to not take away your best ball handler in clutch situations. Herb getting the ball was stupid as hell.

Free throws.........11-25 on free throws

Yeah, we make even three or four of the 14(!) we missed, and the whole last couple of minutes in regulation would’ve been drastically different.

I hereby put forth this petition to ban Lemonpuppy, and any alters he may have or create, from the Bama Board until Alabama Basketball makes it to the Elite 8.
