Stop Dorian Finney. Guy is averaging close to a double-double. I think if we can contain him, we have a shot. Much easier said than done obviously.

Bama has to also limit the 2nd chance opportunities. Florida is fast to the ball and loves to shoot up 3s, then go up and tip it in.

I gotta feeling this one is going to be a heartbreaker. I want Alabama to win so fricking bad.

Hasn't it be like 20 years since Bama won at Florida. Bama is due for a win.

I don't think Grant ever beat Florida did he? This could be something else Avery could do that Grant didnt

Alabama hasn't beaten Florida since 06 I believe. We got close in Grant's first year, then our tournament year. Other than that, Florida has dominated recently. Bama still owns the series, but we've lost 9 straight- the most vs any team currently in the SEC.

That's what I thought. I doubt it'll end tomorrow, but I sure hope it does. I think we have a better chance this year than we've had in awhile just bc this teams fights and has already beat 4 ranked teams. This team fights no matter who they're playing. That's why I want to see them make the NCAA tourney this year bc I know they'll fight and maybe pull off an upset

One of the things I think this staff has done so well this year is to identify the main person on the other team to stop, and come up with a plan that will limit their effectiveness. We haven't always been able to execute the plan, but we've had one.

Yeah for the most part we've done a really good job with that.

Here's a good interview with CAJ that I saw on BOL: LINK

Think CAJ's best job he did this year was stopping Demetrius Jackson for ND. He did have a good number of assist, but his production was way down to his usual.

I agree completely with you guys. Avery has always structured up a good plan to get someone else to beat you. Can't stop a hot player though.

The last time Bama won @Florida, Avery still had almost ten years left in his playing career.
