Title: Slumping Alabama BB Trying to Salvage NCAA Spot Post by: Marshal Dillon on February 04, 2012, 02:49:37 PM Good article.
Alabama has created a new set of obstacles for itself as it tries to reach the NCAA tournament. A recent four-game losing streak and an ill-timed slump for star Tony Mitchell have left a Crimson Tide team once ranked as high as No. 11 needing a strong finish to end a six-year NCAA drought. But the Tide (14-7, 3-4 Southeastern Conference) still has nonconference wins over Wichita State, Purdue, Georgia Tech and Oklahoma State after a weak schedule helped send the team to the NIT last year http://msn.foxsports.com/collegebasketball/story/Slumping-Alabama-trying-to-salvage-NCAA-spot-52357076 :popcorn2: Title: Re: Slumping Alabama BB Trying to Salvage NCAA Spot Post by: pmull on February 04, 2012, 03:00:52 PM MD, I think you forgot the link for the article.

They are 13-8 with a 96 RPI. They are also leading #6 North Carolina at the half today. We need them to win. Purdue plays # 20 Indiana tonight. We need them to win too. Of course none of that matters unless we start winning. Title: Re: Slumping Alabama BB Trying to Salvage NCAA Spot Post by: Jamos on February 04, 2012, 04:41:18 PM I'll be there!!! Roll Tide!!! >:(
