Predictably the Least Valuable Player is Alex Reese. He is Nate Oats version of Luke Jackson

Alabama is tied with Saint Louis for No. 24 in the latest coaches basketball poll.

Other than preseasons, that is the first time since December 2011 that Alabama basketball has been ranked in the coaches poll.



I mean I knew it had been a while but it didn't really hit me that it had been almost a DECADE

Alabama received 173 voting points in this week’s AP poll, the most of any team not in the top 25.

The Tide, at 4-0 in the SEC and 9-3 overall, still has not been ranked in the AP top 25 since Nov. 2017.

Gonna be a hard game. Kentucky's record is what it is, but they seem to be getting it together and obviously are talented. They are not a good scoring team because outside of Mintz and Allen they struggle shooting from the perimeter. If we can make sure Sarr doesn't have a big game and if we can make a respectable percentage from deep I think we will win.

I’m a little ticked that the guys didn’t crack the AP T25. That’s the best two week run basketball has seen in ages. Some of the wins weren’t pretty and I admittedly haven’t watched a lot of teams play yet, but I’m not sure you find 25 better resumes than Bama’s right now.

KP has us losing by 1 (73-72), so that's right on the money.

KP Total of 145, 1.5 pts under the total.

I’ll take a pick ‘em against UK on the road every day of the week.

Also, has anyone released an update on Quinerly’s status tomorrow?

Anyone who watched the UT-UA game knows this isn’t entirely true. Dykes was a broken record on the subject.

Coming from a guy that typically likes his commentary, that was some of the most one-way commentary I’ve ever witnessed. And I’m a Hawks fan who regularly gets to listen to Dominique prematurely claim victory after the Hawks establish a 5-point lead with 5 minutes to go.

Can't remember the guys name who called our game against Auburn, but it was pretty obvious he was pulling for them the entire game.
