Nate Oats on field of 68. He seemed pretty impressed with Bradley’s 0 TO performance against number 1 team on the road.

This was on their board as well.

No. 8/10 Alabama Comes Back from 15-Point Second Half Deficit to Stun No. 1/1 Houston, 71-65

The Crimson Tide captured its second win over the nation’s top-ranked team in less than two weeks, secured first true road win over the No.1-ranked team in 40 years

For the second time in two weeks the No. 8/10 Alabama men's basketball team has defeated the nation's No. 1-ranked team, as the Crimson Tide knocked off No. 1/1 Houston, 71-65, in front of a record crowd at the Fretitta Center Saturday afternoon.

The Tide (8-1) trailed by as many as 15 points early in the second half but outscored the Cougars (9-1) 42-21 over the final 17 minutes of play to earn the team's third top-15 win of the season.

With the win, Alabama became the first team to defeat two different No. 1 teams before January since the 1965-66 season when Duke accomplished the feat. Two games ago, on Nov. 27 at the PKI in Portland, Ore., UA captured a 103-101 quadruple-overtime win over then-No. 1 North Carolina.

Alabama's Noah Clowney led the Tide with 16 points and a game-high 11 boards to lead three players in double figures. Jaden Bradley finished with 12 points to go along with five rebounds and four assists, while Mark Sears added 11.

Houston (9-1) was led Jamal Shead's 19 points, while Tramon Mack added 10 in the losing effort.

Head Coach Nate Oats' Postgame Comments
"This is one of those character wins that shows the guys are going to keep fighting no matter what the score is. We could have easily given up when we were down 15. The start to the second half wasn't great. We made some changes with the bench guys which allowed us to hang in there. We kept clawing away until we finally took the lead and then we were able to pull away down the stretch. That's a tough team. You have to give Houston a ton of credit. They give you everything you can handle. They had our offense looking like a disaster for most of the game and that's total credit to them. They take you out of what you want to do, and they did a great job of taking Brandon (Miller) out from what he does. But he showed a lot of character stepping up and making free throws late. We were able to get contributions from a bunch of different guys. Huge program win – not sure how many teams get to play two No. 1 teams in non-conference, but I think that shows that we've gotten this program to where we can play with anyone in the country."

Box Score

Clowney's comments about not caring about any team's rank or numbers may have just made him my favorite player on this team.
