Cause you fouled because UConn is way better and you couldn't stop them.

I do think Grant Nelson got pounded on some of his shots with no call. but it wouldn't have mattered. The best team won the game. It would have taken an absolutely perfect game, and even that might not have been enough.

Nate Oats has a chance to win a National Title at Alabama, and sooner rather than later.

When you get screwed all game against a great team you’ll eventually cave. Proud of our guys! The announcer at the end said “sometimes you just get the feel that two teams are on a collision course and it’s suppose to be that way” LOL yup


Alabama fans, exemplified

Do you actually think basketball teams should end the game with equal amount of fouls?

You realize that teams that rely more on threes get fewer fouls than teams that push the ball closer to the basket?

Or that better defensive teams commit fewer fouls because they are in proper position than bad defensive teams who have to foul to stop easy layups?

The style of play and quality of players has a huge affect on fouls


Don't bother, I've been down this road with Bama fans.

Always fun when the team that lives and dies by jacking up 3s is astonished when they don't get to the line as much

The refs were absolute trash...but with that flurry at the end, Uconn was winning that game regardless

Melt bitch.

Bama fans and crying about refs in any sport go together like peanut butter and jelly.

You’d make a great LSU fan.

Foul discrepancies in basketball are normal when one team is superior.

Alabama players were flopping like fish on the deck all night. Embarrassing, actually. Gust of wind knocked one guy down….

Alabama shouldn’t complain about refs. That’s like Texas complaining about refs - it’s ridiculous

I watched the whole game - even correctly called what was going to happen in the game thread. Bama played the outside much more than UConn (especially in the first half). That draws fewer fouls. UConn was also the better defensive team. Their players were in better position throughout the game. UConn shooting more FTs isn’t a conspiracy - UConn was better and played a style that got more fouls.

UConn is simply better in many ways


Yeah, UConn had a better team.

But when shite like this consistently doesn't get called...



you gotta wonder.

That said, we went ice cold in the second half, and a lot of that had to do with UConn's stifling D. So props to them.
