It's not even particularly close, in auburn we'd still have a chance i will be pretty surprised if we can go on the road and beat them. It sure would be sweet though

Its going to be very tough to win Saturday. Chances are we split home and home again this year.


However, a win Saturday would be sooooo freakin sweet

I’m wondering how we are going to defend them. They are relentless from 3. Holloway shoots 50% from 3 in SEC play and they can all shoot. I’m not sure how we run them off the 3-pt line. Out backcourt is going to have to play lights out for us to win. Miles and CBM need to have a good game

it will take the best defensive effort of the year to beat them in their own house. They can all drain threes and they have some really clutch players.

Were number 1 and 2 for a reason

We need to take good shots and shoot well ourselves. A lot harder to get in transition off made baskets

A lot may come down to refs calling fouls on bullshite Sears flops. We have to stay out of foul trouble.

Loved the way we played tonight. Locked in when things got rough and put them away

I like how we are built to beat Bama but Broome and CBM have to be ready to go and play business like, though contact

Gotta trust the primary defender to stay with the guard. Bama kills you either on the kick or the dish when you help.

Extended elbow into defender and head flying back all night.

No doubt. They are going to try and draw fouls against Chaney when he backs them down in the paint. I'd almost bet on it

This is the game that they absolutely cannot waste time crying to the refs if they don’t get the call. We have to get back fast after a miss or a make.

Yeah, I bet bama will push their buttons early and often to try and get them rattled.

They’d be dumb not to. It’s going to be potentially the biggest test mentally of the year. Being in a hostile environment, against a team that is going to try and push their buttons and makes a living at the FT line. Guys are going to have to stay composed when things inevitably go against them.

Chaney having a great game came at just the right time. Not sure bama was figuring to key on him very much. After tonight, they may be forced to and hopefully that can open things up for others.

Kelly was really quiet on offense tonight (1/5). Would be good to see him get back in form Saturday.
