Guys we are 14th in the country in PPG. Despite being one of the worst a taking care of the ball.

And we are shooting 71% at the line. Much improved

Well, part of that is because we have a whole lot more possessions (we also give up a whole lot more possessions). Nature of the style.

We've been efficient on offense too, though, especially compared to past Alabama teams. This is certainly a much different team than we've had.

Offensive Efficiency (KenPom)
2020 - #67
2019 - #103
2018 - #106
2017 - #152
2016 - #164
2015 - #53
2014 - #128
2013 - #151
2012 - #115
2011 - #144
2010 - #88
2009 - #113
2008 - #55
2007 - #33
2006 - #28
2005 - #9


Basically, it's the co-most efficient offensive team we've had since the heart of the Gottfried era. And I'd wager that the last 3-4 games we are more like Top 40.

Pretty encouraging stuff.

My heart wants to wonder what could have been if we had Rojas,Gary,and JQ but then I remember this is Alabama basketball so bad things would have still probably happened.

Big game fellas! This team is making improvements. Would make for a nice early season win to beat Belmont.

I’d feel a lot better about this season with a win today. 6-5 is just so much better looking than 5-6

Would be huge to be 7-5 going into conference play. I was just joking the other day When I said we would beat UF but Florida is not good and I think we got decent chance to win that game.

I thought Auburn would take a step back, but they're good

By the time the Barn comes to T-town we will better understood this bunch. We're still in pre-season building mode. The W-L's don't matter as much a building a product. Maybe a NIT invite but that it's possible that invite might mean we're headed in a positive direction vs the normal crash and burn NIT invite.
