re: Bama vs Clemson for a Final Four spot

I’ll take a 6 seed all day in the elite 8 but Clemson is a terrible matchup for Bama. They play a super slow pace and excel at disrupting the rhythm of fast break 3 point offenses. Not to mention they already beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa.

Alabama going to have to assert their tempo on the game and get timely stops or probably lose. Alabama has gotten stops when it matters in this tourney so far: clamped down on Charleston in the first 30 to build up a 30 point lead, held GCU scoreless in the final 4, held UNC to 2 points in the final 2 minutes.
