Alabama hosts South Carolina (3:00 SEC Network)

[SUPERCOACH]

On a separate note, I am excited about next year's team.  Releford will be a senior, and we have Lacy, Randolph, and Cooper back as Juniors.  Jacobs should be much improved in his 2nd year, which would make a huge difference in helping out the other 4 to take their game to the next level.

20lbs and a years confidence on Pollard. Perhaps an auto impact surprise or two in the recruiting class. But Jacobs and Pollard with another year of weight training could turn out dynamic.

Bama is down to a 6 game season now with their backs to the wall. They must win at least 4 of the next six regular season games to have a chance at all for the Big Dance, and then win at least 2 games in the SEC Tournament. It won't be easy. With the SEC being hated so much because of football, I don't expect any favors from the selection committee come selection time.

Miss State - Home
LSU - There
Auburn - Home
Florida - There
Ole Miss - There
Georgia - Home

I agree we need to win 4 of the remaining regular season games. As it looks now we will be one of the top 4 teams that will get a bye until Friday. Winning two puts us in the finals. We may only have to win one.

We should be better next year for sure. We only lose Steele. Releford, Randolph, Lacey and Cooper all return. Jacobs will be in his third year. He was injured in the off season and he is just now playing like we expected. Gueye and Engstrom will be back. Pollard will have a year under his belt and time in the weight room. We add two big men as incoming freshmen. One is already 6-10 220. He is trying to put on weight to be ready to bang in the paint. The other is a 6-8 power forward. Obasohan will also be a second year player. He is starting to show signs he can play. We have a lot to look forward to.

Enough about next year. Let go win some games and get in the NCAA Tournament this year.

As far fetched as it may seem, Bama has got to get Gueye and Engstrom ready for next year. I thought Pollard would be a lot of help this year because he was rated so high out of high school, but that hasn't been the case at all. I just don't see any high schooler coming in and making that big of an impact for the team, maybe a juco could. Maybe they should send them up to New York for the summer and let them play in that summer league, they'll get an education of basketball  there. They have this kid coming in from Greensboro High School next year, he's a little taller than Pollard but I think his skills are no better than Pollards.

Yep, good analysis of the state of the team for next year.  Jacobs actually played last year too and looked much better than he has so far this year, so hopefully he will be back at full strength next year, along with Engstrom.  Gueye will only get so far, acceptable for D and under the basket rebounds, but forget about shooting or dribbling.

I think this team will do enough down the stretch to make the NCAA Tournament, as the second or third best SEC team with a half-decent RPI.  This team has a legit shot at the SEC, and that is the post season I am most interested in right now.

Oh boy. LOL No seriously, IDK the mechanics of it but I can't imagine them not transferring out somewhere.

I watched the rest of the Arky game.  All of the talking heads are saying it will be UF, UK, Mizzou, and Ole Miss from the SEC and Alabama left out.  I could see why they have us left out based on some of the ugly losses, but I can't see how 3 teams we are ahead of in conference play can be in and still leave us out.  Ole Miss has lost 4 in a row if I am not mistaken, and UK is not the same team without Noel.  We beat them when they had Noel.  If we can win the rest of our games except UF we might be able to get back in it.  That means we have to beat Ole Miss at their place.  That pathetic 2nd half at Auburn could cost us our chance when it is all said and done.

It was a good win today against SC, Bama led from start to finish, and the game was never really in double. 

I think the talking heads were saying that before Ole Miss and KY's losses.  Bama should be a solid invite team as No. 2 in the SEC and playing a tougher non-conference schedule than most SEC teams.

Jacobs was better last year because Green was getting so much attention. It will help him next year if we get another big guy capable of scoring in the paint.

Florida will get in. Maybe as a No. 1 seed. The rest of the league is fighting for two, maybe three spots. We leveled the playing field today with UK and Mizzou losing. Oe Miss is fading fast. They lost a good big man with a knee injury a few games ago and have not won since. They play UGA tonight.

The committee looks at the entire season but finishing second in the SEC has to account for something.

I have absolutely no recollection of Jacobs playing last year.

He always tells stories of you from last season.

You do seem to be watching more BB this year -- you actually post in BB threads.

Well I have only got to watch one game our Cable bunch don't have the SEC Network. I do however read every post on basketball in here.
What I am now seeing is an Alabama team that sounds of getting better at this time of the year than they did last year. If we can keep the inside circle covered, and up our 3 Pt. percentage we could be in it for the March and April madness. I am not going to guess but I can feel maybe a Elite 8? RTR!
