Bama Game Thread: MBB - Bama visits LSU - Sat Feb 21 - 5p CST SECN

[Richtide]

3-15. Why aren’t we attacking the rim?!

 

[Richtide]

How did Arkansas have a 36 pt lead on this team in Red Stick?

 

[Richtide]

Thought a 7.5 spread was a no brainer cover

 

[Krymsonman]

I think we're still feeling the Arkansas game a bit. Plus, there is no continuity in this game due to all of the fouls being called.

 

[Richtide]

Need to hit our FTs and play some semblance of defense for 38 sec

 

[Richtide]

Well so much for defense. 10 of their last 12 buckets have been lay ups or dunks, the other 2 open 3s. At least we’re hitting FTs.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Well a win is a win. Roll Tide!

 

[Bama Lee]

Solid road win and more importantly no additional injuries

 

[Lifer]

What was ailing Philon tonight? Hope he heals quickly.
Good to get a W on the road. RTR

 

[Richtide]

Good win. We lose that game if we don’t hit 10-13 FTs in last 7 min. Gave up 25 pts in that span after decent defensive play, almost all on lay ups and FTs. LSU only lost by 10 to Vols in Knoxville so any win on the road is a good win.

I’d almost rather he sit out than continue to risk worsening the injury. Rest up

We lose that game if Philon sits

 

[BamaInCummingGA]

Before Coach Oats got here we'd be around 15 - 16 wins and hoping to squeeze into the tournament.
I'll take a win like this as much I will the Arky game.
Win out. Get a second round bye and win a game or two in the SEC Tourney and should be a 3 or 4 seed.
Good win tonight, Team.

 

[Richtide]

Win looks better when you see our top 3 guards shot 2-14 from 3. Helps they went 19-20 on FTs!

 

[Cruiser]

Thought a 7.5 spread was a no brainer cover

Maybe not?

 

[Nothingfaced]

Florida has to drop 3 out of the next 4 games, then our guys have to win out, for the SEC regular season title.

I fully get that isn’t the main priority in March, but it would still majorly sweeten the season.

A truer statement has never been said.

Kentucky got hosed late in the Auburn game with a “flop” by the AU player leading to an offensive foul with UK up by 1 with 14 seconds left. Auburn gets a put back with one second left. Mark Pope, UK coach, on “how to say you officials suck without actually saying you officials suck”.

As he walked away from the microphone (I won’t post because of language-but you can find it) you can hear him say (my guess is to his AD, association AD, or SID) paraphrased “I don’t want to hear anything about any fines because I didn’t say a single word about officiating and how they screwed us”.
