Last season Bama was regular season champs, SEC Tournament Champs, and the number 1 overall seed….and yet didn’t make it past the sweet 16. It’s March Madness. You just never know. I expect this Bama team to do well….no expectations….just play. One bad game doesn’t erase another great year. Enjoy what Bruce had built down on the plains, knowing that you will be back in the tournament next season. That is what is great about the 2 coaches in Alabama. No more worrying about the bubble on Selection Sunday….. Cheers!

Yep.. although the refs were one sided, you can’t win with atrocious guard play. Maybe Aden will grow up and be dependable as Sears is now.

What ale’d us last year raised its ugly head when it counted. We could have put the game away with FT down the stretch, but we choked from our best line shooters.

Yale has a great shooter who made contested shots when it counted.

Did you watch the game? Many phantom fouls that were one sided. Broome and others got annihilated with the put backs seconds left on the clock.

Do you play past it and win? Yes. Atrocious FT shooting down the stretch lost us the game.

True. Yale plays a style of ball that is unorthodox today. Auburn didn’t have its best stuff. As far as the pain, yes I understand totally. Being the one seed just made it that much worse last year. I wish free throws were our problem. We literally have to just outscore everybody. If it wasn’t for Sears I don’t know where we’d be.

Bruce needs to recruit some guards that actually pan out.

Yea when Nate first got to Alabama the FT % was abysmal. It lost us the sweet 16 UCLA game. We have slowly gotten better at the line….

The sad thing about yesterday was 2 of our best FT% guys choked at the end.
It wasn't like Cardwell was standing there shooting a 1&1.

Obviously you missed the part where one of your players was ejected for committing assault...

After he got throat punched on the previous trip down the floor you asshat.

frick you.
If that was reviewed, then the reason for it should have been reviewed also.

That said, CBM should have kept his composure and retaliated when the opportunity presented itself instead of going off in front of the same ref that ignored the Yale player throat punching him.
And by the way, frick you.
