Bama Game Thread: Bama vs St Johns - Sat Nov 8 - 11a -FoxSports1

[Joefus]

Surprised to see wrightsell playing this early in the year. Especially with that limp…

 

[Bama Lee]

These refs are calling Ricky tack stuff on us but they don’t hardly call anything on St Johns

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

Love the size in the lane this year

Williamson is looking rough so far. Beat badly to the basket on defense, way too timid in trying to score down low, not blocking out… Hope he’s just still getting over the effects of his injury, but definitely a step slow at this pace.

I never understood , Why foul a little guy under the basket? Probably an 85% FT shooter, better chance he misses a contested FG.

And playing well

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

Ball movement has looked really good so far. Not nearly as much iso as in the past.

 

[Joefus]

And playing well

On fiyah

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

37-30 Alabama, TO StJ. 5:47 left in 1st

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

Something about MSG brings out the juice

 

[Bama Lee]

I’m liking our guard play

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

Very, very early in the year and can't read to much into one game, but if they keep this up this game and improve on this throughout the year, look out!

 

[Bama Lee]

These refs are awful

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

As usual, some bogus foul calls leading to foul trouble

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

Would love to see Oates use TOs a little more this year when other team gets on a roll.

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

Free throws:
16-StJ
3-Alabama

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Free throws:
16-StJ
3-Alabama

seems legit

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

39-38 Alabama 4-min TO

 

[carder24]

Finally a call for us, I like the pace, our depth will help get through these calls unless refs are overly corrupt

 

[December05]

That was almost 10 minutes of game time between SJ’s 4th and 5th fouls.

If you’re a crew that feels you need to skew it a little to carry the home team a couple possessions, so be it, but when it is essentially the only thing keeping the game competitive, why even waste everyone’s time to play the game.

Hope we get a return trip down south from these Yanks over this.
