I like our chances for the Elite 8

Re: AH fingers - it helps his touch, IMO...

I hope Sears gets his long-range back...

We’re spoiled. Nate Oats has set a new standard. Pay the man whatever it takes to keep him.

So where will our sweet 16 game be played??

 

[CrimSonami]

Didn’t realize this Sweet-16 is the first ever 3-peat by Bama. Thank You CNO and Greg Byrne.

Hopefully we’re peaking at the right time!

ROLL TIDE!

Fun Fact: This is the second time Bama has played a team with the Gael mascot. The other being Iona. Both being Catholic schools thus the mascot.

Roll Tide!

That game was basically over at halftime. St Mary’s did not belong on the same court.

not a knock on Bama. Quirk of seeding.

Congrats on getting to the Sweet Sixteen! RTR!

What a great time to be a Bama fan! SEC is looking strong as well heading into the sweet 16!

CNO substituting tonight was masterful. Playing Sherrill and Cliff together took away some of the advantages the Gaels had with their 2 bigs in the game

Hopefully no more “fans” telling us how bad we are after another great tourney win. First team to score 80 against St Mary’s in 105 games is truly a remarkable stat.

 

[Tide&True]

I feel like this team hasn’t played to their full potential yet.

eh. They sucked.

fact of the matter is the WCC is a conundrum. They’re a mid major conference with a single high major team in Gonzaga. Sometimes those teams beat Gonzaga. How do you properly bifurcate that?

again, not knocking Bama, but that was more akin to a 15-2 matchup than a 7-2. Bama was clearly way better from the jump. I let the fool’s gold of those wins over the Zags fool me lol.

No, you are knocking Bama. That’s two posts in a row trying to belittle the win. It’s what you do.

definitely belittling the win. Not belittling Bama. Bama is every bit as capable of winning the title as Duke or Auburn or Florida or Houston on both résumé and metrics.

but that matchup was a bad one. They didn’t belong on the same court as Bama and it was clear pretty damn quick.
