I fully expected to lose today just because of the last 2 big wins, them having Cooper back, road game, etc.

The fact that we gave up a couple leads and just grinded until taking it away at the end....it's hard to overstate how impressive that is, especially for this program.

Yep. The losing the lead part and never flinching is most impressive. Definitely not a normal Bama basketball response.

No kidding! I’ve watched too much Bama basketball through the years to not have a little “what could have been” still in my system though.

Literally everything about this season says we can win in Rupp. That's why we will definitely lose by between 6 and 10 after narrowing it down to a 3 or 4 point game with 3 minutes to go.

That’s weird because I was debating on going to get one of those rapid ones they give you at Urgent care. I’ve been sick since Monday and Wednesday I couldn’t hardly breathe. I’m feeling better and on the downside of it now so I’m debating if I should just go get one out of curiosity.

I don't know if there is a new strain out there that is more virtulant or just coincidence, but we've had 4-5 very fit people at our firm come down with it in the last 7-10 days and have serious breathing issues - 2 of them had to get airborne steroids to take or else they would have had to go to the hospital it was so bad.

Yeah, Wednesday was rough. I had to sleep in the recliner Wednesday night because if I laid down I couldn’t breathe. Idk if I wanna get a test to confirm it or not. But the curiosity might kill me

I think Today’s game will end up as a Q1 win. I expect Barn to get on a little bit of a run with Cooper

I tested positive right after Christmas. I was pretty lucky - just 4-5 days of mild-ish symptoms. No real breathing problems.

I wasn’t like on the verge of death breathing problems but it was just uncomfortable. I considered going to the Hospital(I work there in maintenance) but decided against it. I guess I would have been too embarassed( And I didn’t wanna pay for them to give me one) I’m better now but my job told me I had to stay home for 10 days... I can go back to Work Thursday

Keon Ellis was getting hosed all game for good defense. Not sure why the refs picked on him and herb in particular.

The Tennessee win was impressive. The UF and AU (with Cooper they’re tournament quality) wins without a PG were even more impressive. To be 4-0 with the slate we’ve had and Quinerly being down for 2 of them is incredibly impressive. Finally, the hard non-conference schedule is paying off for us.

Bruner finally had a nice statistical performance to get the detractors off his back. Whether or not he shows up on the stat sheet, he’s always been a vital player for us to have. Primo looks to be getting comfortable. Shackelford had a couple impressive drives where he looked under control and side step around the defender. Petty is the unsung hero of this game though. Cooper was giving us fits until we put Petty on him. He stayed in front of him well and cut off his passing lanes. His future NBA agent needs to be spamming every GM in the NBA those last 5 minutes of this game. Incredibly impressive.

Yep - per KP we've played the #3 hardest conference schedule to date.

#1 and #2 are Arkansas and Missouri and they are both 1-2 in league.
