Game Thread: Bama vs. Rhode Island
- Thread starter TexasBama
- Start date
A lot of effort from the team. But every time we got close, if we didn't do something stupid, the refs took up the slack.
I think we're gonna just have to grit our teeth through some more games like this this season. Flashes of excellence combined with stretches of struggling to adapt to a completely new style of play, exacerbated by a lack of depth inflicted by injuries and those weasels at the NCAA. Probably gonna be and up-and-down season.
Probably accurate. The injuries and NCAA are conspiring to make this season much worse than it would have otherwise been.
Tonight showed, even with a lack of depth, this dog a lot of fight in it. I love teams with toughness and doesn’t quit.
Down 22, it would have been easy to throw dirt in them. But coming back to cut this thing to 5 with a chance to cut it further shows me something.
Going to be a tough season, but it will be to see how much they can progress this year.

Beetle Bolden was Poison every time he touched the ball tonight.
Kira is elite, Davis just might be a stud and Herb looks like he has put in the work on his offense to possibly be really good on both ends.
Defense has got to be better, but hopefully that will come.

At times, yes, but there were stretches of resiliency that weren't there before. Probably not realistic to expect Oats to coach away bad habits built up over 2-3 years. I think they'll improve as the season goes on - some big, unexpected wins along with more frustrating losses. I figure the overall trend to be towards improvement.
Terrible 1st half. 33 points off turnovers for RI. That said, we had a chance but Beetle decided to play hero ball rather than have awareness of what was working offensively and go back to that.
This year will be about establishing a foundation for the future. Hopefully, we can put some good games together as Coach Oats discovers which guys he can trust in crunch time and builds on that.
I still say there is a game we will win and not supposed too. I have been saying we will have bumps in the road .
I have not being keeping up right now because of football but are we to get some of our depth back anytime soon?
