Davion Mintz 5/5 from 3.


I still think Tennessee comes back and wins. But if they don’t it Moves UK up to Q1 and Q2 wins

It's easy to see why Bruner elevates the +/- for the team when he's in the game.

Everything he does is a positive.

It's the early morning blues again. Let's pick it up in the second half. Think we do. Defense has picked up.

Turned it on with 9 minutes left in the game, at 18-25. So we're on a 12-4 run since I've turned it on. And ever missed a lot of good looks. Sucks, but shot selection has been good. We just suck today. If you're gonna play like shite, at least it's a team we can beat playing shitty. Hopefully the shots start feeling in the 2nd half.

Either way, glad to see Brunner back

Great stat here:

Vandy was 50% from 3 (5-10)

Bama was only 25% from 3 but made one more (6-24)

Yea all the looks are good. And we're 4/5 from 2P range, which is excellent.

Just gotta make some more shots.

Doubt we lose the OK and Mizzou game with a healthy Bruner out there.


We don't lose to Mizzou with a fully healthy Herb.

@AlabamaMBB head coach Nate Oats to @UA_CTSN at halftime:

"Struggling on offense, we can't make a shot. I thought our defense was great. 6-24 from 3PT isn't how we typically play, we've got to have some shooters make some shots but I'm pretty pleased with our effort."

Yeah even an average shooting day (9-24) and this one is heading towards a blowout. You have to think things will average out after halftime, but I've expected that before and it never happened. At least our defense picked it up the last 10 minutes of the half.

It is nice to have this bad a shooting effort.......and still be winning.

In the past we're down 7 at the half with this sort of outing.

So is that bad shot selection or just an off-half of shooting? seemed more like an off-half to me.

Our looks have mostly been really good. As has been discussed, our passes seem to be just a hair off and it's causing guys to have to collect the ball or double clutch.

They’ve had great looks. They’re just not falling.

No we don't. We're playing at the same level we have the past couple of weeks, just missing some shots we normally don't. Vandy came out hot shooting the ball and we adjusted and settled down defensively and locked them down the final 10 minutes or so.

I only recall one ill advised shot all half - a Reese 3. And even that one was an open look that Oats likes. Just thought he had a better opportunity to drive the ball on that one. We maintain our defensive pressure, and hit a few more shots, we run away with this one.
