Mods, in case you're confused, I checked "Spoilers" when I RA'd the OP, as this is the kind of thing that will spoil our season.
TIA for doing the right thing and deleting this thread and any others like it in the future.

Good enough to have a 40 point lead in the second half on an ESPN nationally telecast game for first place in the SEC.
That good.
That good.

I admittedly don't watch much basketball, but the margins of victory are like nothing I've ever seen before from Alabama basketball. Playing like they played tonight looks like to me they could beat anyone in the country on a given night.

Best team I've seen in the SEC in a long time. If they continue to shoot this well, they have a real shot at final four

Worked with an attorney who turned 90 a couple of years ago, right before he died.. he had went to UNA on a basketball scholarship, but he loved Alabama basketball. ..had season tickets..I drove him down from North Alabama, when he got to where he couldn't drive, to watch a few games every year. Seems like we lost every one we went to tho. He would have loved to have been alive to see this

Could, but Gonzaga and Baylor are very good teams.
Bama had a scare from a young Auburn team. Gonzaga manhandled us.
I would give Bama a chance to make a final four run like Auburn did IF they can avoid Gonzaga and Baylor.
It will be interesting to see whether the shooting stats red hot every game and whether Bama can win a few with a cold shooting night.
Like I’ve said before, “Bama basketball is fun to watch.”

They remind me of Loyola Marymount really solid team. When they get the Yale transfer back they will be even better. They whipped us last night but we got them again next week.

The ridiculously good three point shooting notwithstanding, I was really impressed with how well and hard they played defense. Shooting will come and go, but you can hang your hat on defense. Oats has these guys focused and on the same page. I do not think its fluky in any way. I think you Bama fans can give the catastrophe syndrome a rest.

Old Bama would follow this win up with a 20+ point road loss @Ole Miss on a Wednesday night. We’ll see.

Basically we beat a team of two we shouldn't have in the middle of the season usually one the wins are a fluke but we somehow get enough wins to be a bubble team the last few weeks. Then we drop 2 of 3, play well the first game of the SEC tournament and but usually lose the next round. That sum up Bama BBall last few years.
Don't forget there were usually a couple of horrible losses to bad OOC teams before SEC play

I have been watching Alabama basketball since CM newton was the coach. CM had some good teams and Wimp had some fantastic teams. Time will tell, lets just enjoy the run and hope it holds together.

I would go ahead and buy final four tickets and book a room.
