The first mission of the week for the second-ranked Alabama men's golf team has been accomplished.

The Crimson Tide made the cut to match play at the 2013 NCAA Championships in Milton, Ga.

Alabama shot a 2-over-par 282 Thursday and finished third out of 30 teams. The top eight teams advance to match play. The Tide will be the No. 3 seed.

Cal is the #1 seed and Ga. Tech is #2.

Roll Tide guys!!! Take it all this year!

Alabama did what they had to do to advance to match play. Cal looks strong. The Tournament is being played in Atlanta so I assume it is GA Tech's home course.

Match play is different. Anything can happen. We are right where we need to be.

Bama won their match against New Mexico easily today. They won 4-1. We will play host GA Tech tomorrow on their home course. There are only 4 teams left. A win tomorrow and we advance to the finals.

Our team is pretty good. Don't be surprised if we bring home another trophy.

As close as they came last year (the last putt on the last hole, beat them), I think they have a purpose. I think they'll bring it home. Ga Tech will be tough on their home course, but our guys have played it a few times now, so the advantage is smaller. Roll Tide boys!!

Bama has a 4-0-1 lead in the final holes of their match with host GA Tech.

Illinois beat No. 1 Cal 3-2 in a big upset.

If Bama can hang on to their lead we will play Illinois in the Championship Match tomorrow.

Alabama wins. I'm not sure what they will call the final score. We ended the match with our 3rd point and the remaining matches were both all square still on the course. Alabama may concede those matches for a 3-2 win.

We play for the National championship for the second year in a row.

They posted the final score as 3-0-2, 3 wins, 0 losses and two ties. Ties are 1/2 point so we win 4-1.

I am still shocked No. 1 Cal got beat. They have been on fire all week.

I'm not sure what the match format is for today but Bama has mopped Illinois in the morning matches 4-1. If there are no more matches, Bama is your National Champion. ROLL TIDE!!!!!

It is over. Bama wins the National Championship 4-1.

It was not even close. Only two of the matches went 18 holes.

Roll Tide!

With junior Bobby Wyatt leading the way, the Alabama men's golf team won its first national championship Sunday at Milton, Ga.

And it wasn't close.

The Crimson Tide defeated Illinois 4-1 .

Wyatt routed Thomas Detry 6 and 5 in the first group and set the tone.

Trey Mullinax, an Alabama junior from Gardendale, defeated Charles Danielson 1-up.

Scott Strohmeyer, a Tide senior from Auburn, defeated Brian Campbell 3 and 2.

Cory Whitsett, an Alabama junior from Houston, Texas, defeated Alex Burge 4 and 3.

Justin Thomas, a sophomore from Goshen, Ky., was the only Crimson Tide golfer who lost his final match, falling to Thomas Pieters 1 up.

The Tuscaloosa News has a good article about the Golf Championship. I like this quote about Bobby Wyatt who got off to a hot start and crushed his oppontent.

Quote
UA's two-man coaching staff had an early sense of what was to come for Wyatt shortly after the team arrived at the course at 6:30 a.m. to warm up for an 8 a.m. start.

“Bobby on the driving range, I don't think Tiger Woods would have wanted him when I watched him warm up,” UA coach Jay Seawell said. “(Assistant coach Rob Bradley) came up to me and said, ‘I wouldn't want to play him today.'”

Wyatt won seven consecutive holes to start the match, putting his point virtually out of reach before his pairing had even finished the front nine.

I love it that one of our players is from Auburn, Alabama. You know they are dog-cussing him for being there. Great game by all and another National Championship for Alabama athletics. I wonder if Saban was there?

I read where Coach Seawell said one of the first calls he got to congratulate him and the team was from Coach Saban. I think that is pretty cool.
