How do you beat these guys? Outside of bama scoring 110 again, I don't see any weaknesses.

Well, that really fricks up my all SEC final 4. Thanks, man.

UF is likely the only team that matches up decently with them.

And while I'd love to see Broome win the Naismith, Cooper Flagg is just ridiculous.

You make Flagg carry the whole team. Live with him getting 30 and make him run his arse off. Hope he wears down like he did vs. UK early in the year. Not sure it would work as he has grown a lot as a player over the season I’m sure.

Bama can win with the threes or lose in spectacular fashion giving up 100+ (Duke slows it down if they’re blowing out teams). If Florida or Duke make it to the championship without the other, they’re winning it.

We have the bigs to play with them I think. Flagg can shoot it but he does a lot of damage down low and we have size to put on him.
If the guards have a good shooting night we can hang, we have to force them to play at our pace.

Well, Auburn certainly couldn't. Guess Alabama will have to show you how it's done.

Honestly, you gotta get the refs on your side

^agree.
If Alabama hits 25 of 51 threes over and over, this tournament is over.

We beat them early, but it was early. They can certainly have a bad shooting night against a good defensive team.

Defend and rebound.
Duke shot 60% from the floor and 58% from the Three and only won by 7.
They won’t put up those number against a Florida, Tennessee or Auburn.
The Sec plays strong defense.
Florida will out rebound them by 20.

FIFY, and if the other team hits 6-30, it's really over. I'm not sure Duke is going to give as many open looks that BYU did.

It’s a tall task, but not impossible. I do think we will be their toughest opponent since like December. They really haven’t been tested all that much, which also speaks to how dominant they’ve been.

Duke isn't even in the top 50 for bench production. You wear their asses down by playing your game.
Their fast break points production is also not in the top 50. So they are a
half-court team.
BAMA RUNS! This works well in BAMA's favor. Duke has to try to slow BAMA down, and that's not going to happen.

Going to get out and run, play our game, and let the chips fall where they may. If we get bounced in a regional final by a #1 overall pick at a basketball powerhouse, so be it. But they're less scary than last year's UConn team IMO, and we gave them a decent game with a worse squad than this year's team.

Agree BoCam. Outside of anybody getting as hot as we were last night it’s gonna be very difficult and you can’t count on anybody getting that hot again. I think Florida and Auburn match up with them a little better than we do in a half court game but if we’re hitting 3’s and they try to run with us we can win. I don’t think they have the depth Bama has so we need to run them to death!!
