Yeah, he balled out. Hopefully he's not too banged up.
Fun to watch as a disinterested 3rd party. It would have been making me crazy if I was a Bama fan.

Yeah, I mean it was frustrating, but at some point you just have to give the guy credit.

Every single time we tried to blow it open, he'd make a play.

I think losing Nimari Burnett before the game probably hurt a little bit on him defensively, but it's just hard to stop a guy like that on a night when he's dropping 30.

Yeah they are considering their losses are pretty bad.


I wouldn't necessarily call losses to the RPI 31 & 73 early in the season with mainly all new players learning to play together "pretty bad". JMO

I thought the last little run they had to make it close at the end was partly due to us being in "just don't foul" mode. But, they definitely made it uncomfortable.

Yep, up nine with 34 seconds left to winning by three.



Noah Clowney played great, but his two fouls there in a span of about eight seconds really hurt, combined with their two offensive boards.

Those made free throws in the last minute or so were clutch.

He did the same thing to Auburn last week, did you watch that game?

Man, Alabama has a GREAT hoops team this year. Better than your football team. Not saying this in jest but I believe it's true.

Technically, you're correct.

They're currently ranked higher, anyway (#4 vs #5).

Oh definitely.

Our basketball team would destroy our football team in a game of basketball. ;)
