Good Lord I’m glad that’s over. RTR

As the great Gene Stallings says, “A win is a win.” Would’ve preferred we put Arky away but they’re a tough bunch and Cal knows his stuff. Not keeping a big lead after building one is a serious concern, though.

A win is a win is a win, especially in this conference. Onward and upward.

There. is. no. excuse. for. leading. by 18. with. minutes. to. go. and. have. to. sweat. the. win...

Yet I still figured it would happen. Bama just isn't a complete team yet.

I. Will. Take. It.

fell asleep when we had a big lead, woke up to a close game. I will take the win. Roll Tide!

When the other team isn’t getting called for fouls it’s hard for any team to be complete. Bama should’ve been shooting free throws for a long time.

The other team has good players too and it a road game in the SEC. Basketball is a game of runs we went on one to open up the lead and they bounced back.

There is. Arky is really stinking good in spite of their record. They were at home.

And they are a team of second half runs. Doug Shows is garbage. That’s expected. They did go on a 21-4 run. Thankfully, despite some defensive lapses and Shows’ incompetence, Bama closed out a win.

I can't figure what we'd add. Steph Curry? Maybe 6" more height on Holloway and Sears?

there’s only one team in America with a better résumé than Alabama, and they’re literally on the schedule, at home, a week from today.

folks, we’re literally at the pinnacle. The next closest threat got beat by a team that got beat by *South Carolina* tonight, and the next team after that, Houston, we have both beaten on a neutral floor.

Bask in it. Alabama and Auburn are the best teams in America right now and will be 1 and 2 come Monday, with our battle for supremacy a week away.

To be completely honest I’ll be shocked if they jump us. But that’ll resolve itself either way.

The basketball team is the new sheriff in t -town 😄. Good win, but they can't play like that down the stretch to even more talented teams. The turnovers, missed free throws etc.

Proud of coach oats and the boys RTR
