Title: Bama Basketball Post by: pmull on January 17, 2024, 07:27:18 AM Bama picked up a home win over Mizzou last night 93-75. The win improves the record to 12-5 (4-0).
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: N.AL-Tider on January 17, 2024, 09:01:22 AM How are they playing in this cold? And if they got any snow in T-town, they will lose their balls in it... :panic:
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: 2Stater on January 17, 2024, 09:15:45 AM Bama lost most of their games to quality teams by close scores. They hadn't even had a chance to gel and develop chemistry. It looks like they are finding themselves now in conference play. Off to a good start.
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: ricky023 on January 17, 2024, 12:25:14 PM I watched and they had to play hard. RTR!

Bama played and lost close games to three-top10 teams. Those games could easily have gone our way so at least IMO, those were "good" losses when it comes to the selection to make the dance or not.Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: ricky023 on January 19, 2024, 09:27:52 AM Bama lost most of their games to quality teams by close scores.

Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: SUPERCOACH on January 21, 2024, 08:06:45 AM That train wreck was hard to watch. We have got to get better on defense.
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: pmull on January 21, 2024, 08:58:28 AM It happened at Tenn last year too but in a different way. We only lost by 9 but scored only 59 points. The score was closer than the game.
We are still in good shape. We are in a 3-way tie for 2nd in the league. Beat Auburn at home on Wednesday and we are tied for 1st. We need to put the UT game behind us and get ready to beat our biggest rival on our home floor. Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: ricky023 on January 21, 2024, 01:26:44 PM I truly don't think that Tenrc is 20 points better but those off days come hard to high ranked teams. RTR!
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: 2Stater on January 21, 2024, 05:11:26 PM 22 turnovers and lack of defense will get you beat like that.
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: ricky023 on January 23, 2024, 01:04:23 PM Well going to auburn is gonna be no fun they are great this year. My pick right now is they will be in the Final 4 this year. RTR!
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on January 24, 2024, 08:54:04 AM We need a win against Auburn tonight. This team has played some close games against good teams, but hasn't gotten over the hump. We could use a win vs a top 10 team to build some confidence.

Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: N.AL-Tider on January 24, 2024, 07:44:16 PM At halftime Bama is leading by 14 points and TONS of momentum. I hope they can maintain the intensity they finished the 1st half through the 2nd half.

Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: N.AL-Tider on January 28, 2024, 02:37:47 PM I didn't get to watch the Bama/LSU game last night. But from what I heard, we put a good ole whuppin on them. The final score was 109-88.

Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: SUPERCOACH on February 01, 2024, 07:32:18 AM A surprising comeback tonight. Road wins in the SEC are always tough to come by!

Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: 2Stater on February 01, 2024, 08:24:20 PM A great comeback last night by the Tide. CNO seems to know how to push the right buttons.
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: N.AL-Tider on February 07, 2024, 09:30:11 AM I was informed on Monday by a co-worker who is also a Barner that Bama doesn't stand a chance tonight against the Barn. I guess that settles it. We're just gonna lose the game and totally ruin our season. No need to even go to the NCAA Dance or anything... :panic:
Wait! Maybe that's why games are always played on the court rather than just in people's minds... ;) I actually like our chances tonight.

That is the second consecutive game against LSU that we scored 109 points. It also breaks the Bama basketball record for most points on the road.
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: pmull on February 11, 2024, 08:16:26 AM Bama pulled away late to beat the corndogs 109-92. That is the second consecutive game against LSU that we scored 109 points. It also breaks the Bama basketball record for most points on the road. Pros: This team is fun to watch. When we hit our shots, we can beat anyone. Pringle has his best game of the year. We need more of that. Any road win is a good win. Bama is tied for the league lead with a 9-2 record. Currently projected as a #3 seed. Cons: This team needs to learn how to play defense. Teams with a big post player give us trouble. Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: ricky023 on February 11, 2024, 10:00:16 AM pmull you are right one thing I noticed was we are slow on defense. auburn put it on us at their house but it seems them and Tenn. give us the biggest trouble. RTR!
Title: Re: Bama Basketball Post by: pmull on February 22, 2024, 09:08:59 AM Bama got a big home win in OT over Florida last night.

We are projected as a #3 seed right now and rising.
