SEC Basketball Thread

Fun game to watch last night, made something like 22 or 23 3 pointers, Petty made 7 in a row to start the game, and Bama were up by 40 at one point before winning by 30 against a good LSU team.

Last night was one of those games that you are just unbeatable. We hit shots from all over the court, and no team in the country could have beaten us last night. Problem is, that is such a rare game to see, and probably the best game I've seen Bama play since we beat a 1 loss Stanford in the tourney in the early 2000's.

Calipari is one severely overrated coach. Dude is garbage. 5 star players across the board and they are 4-9.

Well he has nine new players with no summer ball and no exhibition games and no confidence building games for this team to gel this year plus add Covid restrictions has hurt Kentucky.

Another good win for Bama this past weekend. One of the ugliest games we've played, but still got the win.

I'm interested to see where we are ranked today. Top 10? Maybe.

Massive 3 games ahead against Kentucky, At Oklahoma, and against LSU, all talented teams.

He’s had more 5 star recruits than any team since he’s been at Kentucky and has what 1 title to show for it? He’s overrated as fuck.

Bama plays Kentucky tonight, and I'm worried that it could spell trouble. Kentucky are used to being the underdog, but are certainly ones tonight.

This week will be massive for Bama, with games against Kentucky and then traveling over to Oklahoma.

Bama up by 3 at halftime against UK

 

[Eco]

We are 5 for 17 for 3's, and still we are in the lead against UK.

Yikes.

Absolutely awful in Tuscaloosa tonight. Team can't shoot, stupid turnovers, and trying to drive with every possession when they are much bigger than us and continuously to block our shots.

No idea why we appear to have given up on the 3..

 

[Eco]

10 minutes into the 2nd half, and we have yet to hit a FG this half...yet we are winning.

 

[Eco]

Can't believe we won this one. BY FAR the worst we've played in probably 3 years on offense, but the Defense was strong again so that we were able to hang on despite awful from 3, and going 10 minutes without a FG.

A few exciting matches up ahead....

SEC/Big 12 Challenge (January 30, 2021):

Alabama at Oklahoma

Arkansas at Oklahoma State

Auburn at Baylor

Florida at West Virginia

Texas at Kentucky

Texas Tech at LSU

Iowa State at Mississippi State

TCU at Missouri

Kansas at Tennessee

Texas A&M at Kansas State

Alabama heads to a red hot Oklahoma team today for the SEC vs Big 12 Challenge. We have had a couple of games in a row where we have clearly struggled, so hopefully we can bounce back, continue to play good defense, and beat a really good Oklahoma team.

How are you feeling abotu VW @tabascojet ?

Also, will be watching and hoping that the doors get absolutely blasted off of Auburn as they travel to Waco to play #2 Baylor.

Down goes Bama!

What a weird game. Play like crap all game, then go on a run to get within 1, but miss 2 layups (one of which looks like a clearly missed foul, but whatever), and then lose by 3.

Oh well, we were crap today, and have been since we played against UK and went 10 minutes without scoring a FG. Truth me told, we are the best team in the SEC, but if we were in the Big Ten or Big 12, we'd be 3-5th best. The SEC just isn't close to being as strong as it usually is.

Oh well, hopefully we will find out stride again soon and finish out with a regular season SEC title. Our end of year is pretty easy compared to others.
