Mo D with a huge block on the 7’1” player.

Nelson needs to hit the FT’s.

 

[alabama mike]

42 points at the half and a 13 point lead. Good going guys.

Good half. Could have played better but I think Alabama for the most part answered the call when it came to rebounding. Got to stop turning it over and giving life to Saint Mary's. Bury them and get ready for BYU.

I mean, Bama is playing some PHYSICAL Defense today and I love it. The officials are not giving them any slack though while letting St Mary's get away with some shoves, holds and bumps on their end. No way we had double the fouls in that half...

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

All in all, that was a good 1st half by Bama other than the turnovers. Defense was really good. People worried about rebounds? UA winning there too, 26-16. 19 of St Mary's 29 points have come off turnovers or at the FT line. Meanwhile, Bama's shooting 55%. Keep the foot on the gas!

If this stat doesn't tell you the difference between the 2 styles of play...

-Saint Mary's has forced 8 turnovers but have 0 fastbreak points.
-Alabama has forced 0 turnovers but have 7 fastbreak points.

The positive side is, usually, not always, but usually, when Bama has a bad half in terms of excessive turnovers, they correct it pretty well in the 2nd half.

Youngblood scores in double Bama is 9-1 right now he has 13 points.

Some of these fouls in the second half



Geez. The guard ran over Nelson and Nelson got the foul?

 

[bamafan9201]

Fouls back to being called ticky tack when we have the ball and they over there throwing bodies and elbows getting 0 calls our way on that. First half they should've had a flagrant, Cliff took a shot from an elbow to the nose and that's why they paused because CNO was trying to get them to review it. They refused to review it...once again never seen a team not get reviews as much as our team.

 

[alabama mike]

Man we commit stupid fouls.

 

[alabama mike]

1st turnover by SM.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Forced our first turnover thankfully. Alabama loves to keep teams in the game.

 

[Bammerboy321]

We just need to go on 1 10-0 run

 

[50+yeartidefan]

Put it away. Just make FTs n shots

Just laughed. @Krimson

 

[alabama mike]

Sears struggling, 2-10 from the field.

 

[alabama mike]

Dang, that #2, Ross is hitting some shots.

 

[50+yeartidefan]

Announcers really want SM to get in. And talk of all shots they have missed at rim. But bama missed as many
