Yep, it was pretty shocking to hear that Florida out rebounded Bama by 20. TWENTY, and lost.

The unfortunate conclusion I have come to is that the SEC just really sux at basketball. Teams that are just average good just don't lose to teams who can't rebound, no inside game, not marquis players, lose the turnover margin etc. Maybe once in a while, but half the conference can't beat Alabama and I really don't know what I saw last night except that LSU is not as good as they should be.

I didn't see a great Alabama team. I didn't even see a good one. So, way to go AJ for getting his team to find a way to win. It is like he has a genie bottle or something.

Maybe, but look at some of the OOC teams that Alabama has beaten (Notre Dame, Wichita St., Clemson)...that aint's too bad!

I don't think the conference is as bad as a lot of people think. What happened last year with all those "bad" SEC teams in the tournament? Also, as has been stated, Bama has had a very tough OOC schedule and has done quite well in it.

This isn't a great Bama team, or a great conference. But, I think both are solid.

Agreed, but it is a team with some quality wins against:

Notre Dame
Clemson
Wichita State
Florida
LSU
Texas AM
South Carolina

All potential tournament teams.
