I am excited for this Saturday, but this is the first of potentially 4 matchups with Auburn - away at Auburn, then a game in the SEC Tournament, and finally a game in the NCAA Tournament. I'll be happy with a win on Saturday, but it won't be heavy on the bragging rights.

It's going to be a battle. Given everything that is at stake, I hope we have a good officiating crew and the teams come out loose and ready to play. The focus of the basketball nation will be on Tuscaloosa, AL tomorrow and I hope we give them a good show. I never thought I would live to see this day but here it is and I can't wait. I've said many, many times that this state is more of a basketball state than we've ever been given credit for. I remember back in the early-to-mid 80's that Alabama, Auburn, UAB, and maybe South Alabama too, were all very good programs. The high school talent produced in this state declined and that along with coaching turnover led to those programs being up and down, mostly down, ever since, but I've always thought that would turn around and that we were capable of having high quality basketball in this state again. I hope this will lead to more emphasis at the high school level on basketball and we and keep this momentum going. A very exciting game tomorrow that has the entire nation talking will go a long way towards making that happen.

So, this game is kind of a big deal, huh? Love that we have them at home Saturday. I expect it to be a battle. Hope we didn't spend too much in the win at Texas the other night. 59% from 3-point is NUTS. If we shot 30% Saturday, from 3 point land, it would feel like less, though that is a fantastic shooting percentage still.

Tide 80, Auburn 77. Final.
