Got worried about this game when listening to Troy's coach and Scott Sanderson (Wimp's son) talk about it on the radio today.

Apparently, Georgia State runs a pretty complicated zone defense. Plus, they have several upper classmen. The probable starters are redshirt Junior, sophomore, junior, senior, senior. D'Marcus Simonds is supposed to be very, very good. He is the Sun Belt preseason Player of the Year.

Riley came in for a few minutes, we’re shooting pretty well and rebounding. Looking ok so far, 39-26 Bama 5:00 left

Shooting the ball really well! Lewis with 16, Ingram being efficient and hit a couple 3’s.

52-31 Bama halftime

'Wow' is right, but this is how we are going to have to play to get anywhere this year. This conference is going to be a battle.

That was a farce. They call a foul on the GSU guy and because he catches an inadvertent elbow it's suddenly a foul on our guy. And why doesn't the guy that caught the elbow have to shoot the FT's? The current rule rewards defenders for sticking their face in the ballhandler's space.

I officially do not understand the cylinder rule or whatever it is called when the defender crowds the player with the ball. How was Smith called for the elbow when the defender was rubbing bellies with Smith?
