🏈 GAME THREAD Alabama tops Oklahoma 80-73, SEC finishes 6-4 in Big 12/SEC Challenge

OK but it was a home game, Bama need to win some away from home!

how the hell do we beat team like oklahoma, but we can't beat a crappy ole miss or vanderbilt team?

Interesting that the Oklahoma coach took Young out of the game with a little more than a minute to go and trailing by 10. I think he saw how frustrated he was and it didn't look like he was still competing. We look like we had that kid in a box and one all night. Avery's best coaching job without a doubt. Wonder if the big 12 has a blueprint going forward?

Congrats to Coach Avery/Staff/Players.....Huge win...............and how about that crowd.....get on your feet and give them a hand...

 

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

Yup.

Stat lines: rebounding was a push essentially, only down 1 in that category.

But, we held them to 40% while shooting 55% from the floor ourselves.

HUGE.

Said it last game that Herb Jones is our most consistent player and should get all of Key's minutes.

I always wanting the SEC school to do the best against other teams. But right now I'm a very happy camper now! Bama Won!! bama Won@!!
But why didn't UK and the barner play today against the Big 12

But why didn't UK and the barner play today against the Big 12

Kentucky does play West Virginia at the bottom of the list. SEC has 14 teams and Big 12 has 10. The 4 not playing today play each other. Lsu vs Auburn and Missouri vs Mississippi State.

Trae Young looks like he models his game after Steph Curry. If u get the least bit physical with him and the refs let it go he will upset and way off his game. If Bama comes out and plays defense like they did today they will be tough for anyone to beat as long as the refs are calling it fair. I loved the comment about TY never committing fouls. I saw at least 3 that should have been called and the ref just looked the other way. Plus the kid plays no defense at all

SEC wins the Big 12-SEC Challenge 6-4

A Texas victory earlier in the season would have been awesome.

Danny tries to stay relevant tweeting shit like this. Imagine if all the SEC fans would stop responding to his nonsense.

Hey were this guy been doing? He wasn't sitting on the bench, he was hiding behind it!

He does the Curry 30-foot pull-up jumpers, just doesn't hit them as often.

When Jones matches up with guards or more slightly built forwards, he is very effective with his length. He struggles with physical play. Offensively, he is excellent at getting to the rim but his shooting needs a good bit of work. He's going to be star.
