We just don't match up well with them but this is the game where we shoot lights out. I can feel it in my loins.

Bama 80 State 72. Just don't see this as a good matchup for us. Bama is another 3 point shooting team which we don't defend well.

Is sears playing? Sears will go for 45.

Otherwise, his 45 is spread amongst a couple of rats.

This'll be another "thank goodness we beat Vanderbilt" game.

Sears goes nuclear. Our offensive woes continue. But we get right against Mizzou.

Bama shoots a lot of threes, but they don’t make them at a high rate. They are ranked 231st in the country at 32.5%. By comparison, Kentucky is 48th in the country at 36.9%. We are 254th at 32.1%. Bama really makes its hay from the free throw line. They are one of the best teams in the nation at free throw attempts and free throw makes per game. We need to keep them off the line, hope their three-point shooting stays on average and Hubbard finally has a good night shooting the ball. I’m optimistically hoping those things will happen
State 76, Bama 72

Alabama quad-1 away games:
  • @ Purdue - L
  • @ North Carolina - W
  • @ Texas A&M - W
  • @ Kentucky - W
State quad-1 home games:
  • Kentucky - L
  • Ole Miss - W
To this point, Alabama has been more impressive in this type of game.

It will be the most lopsided officiated game you have ever watched (or at least since the last time we played bama) even the announcers will have a hard time explaining why the officials treat bama like they are their boss, deciding their fate.
There will be lots of booing. Give me Jans odds on a technical and subsequent ejection and I’d sprinkle a little money on it. We know after all these years what’s about to happen. Robbery.
