think the Saban strategy of just focusing on the next play is the most important mental aspect of this game.

My favorite example of this was against UNC. Bacot slams down a dunk. Their team, crowd and announcers are going nuts. Meanwhile Bama is already down the court and Griffen pulls up for a 3 barely 5 seconds later.

We've done an incredible job answering momentum plays and shutting down runs this tournament, especially late in games.

Exactly! UCONN made Illinois quit because that team was frustrated with nothing working at the start of the second half. Alabama can't let that happen to them. Keep on clawing. If it goes good, keep grinding. If it goes bad, keep grinding. The staff has given them much better plans in the tournament too...just listen to the coaching, listen to your teammates, and block all the other noise out.
