🏀 GAME THREAD 🏀 Alabama vs. Texas A&M - Late Heroics Helps Lift Alabama Past Texas A&M, 100-97

Throwing up a prayer and it somehow going in and a foul fits the somehow category....

 

[mando]

But it would help if you actually hit the free throw

7 years in and Oats still doesn't have an idea on how to draw up a set play in late-game situations

Worse than that can't even inbound the ball.

Just nail these Allen and the game is over

 

[Bammerboy321]

And he misses the first horribly

SMH FT shooting.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Made the 2nd. 3 point game

WHY ARE YOU FOULING SO FAR FROM THE BASKET????

Hangs on fortunatley but why would you have Philon blocking out on A&M FT's when A&M put their big guys in. He was giving up 8-10" and it almost cost them of Griffin hit that 3 that got tipped out to him.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Escaped with a win. That was not how you should finish a game but whatever. More relieved than anything because Alabama tried to lose that game. Aggies are coached very well. Alabama is only coached well on offense.

 

[mando]

To not leave just a negative comment, they found a way and this was a good and much needed win.....

If the officials don't overturn that OOB call with 1:20 left (and Bama was out of challenges), I very seriously doubt Bama wins that game. Good on them for getting together to make the right call.

What I don't get in that situation is why three Alabama players just sat there watching instead of at least attempting to block the shot.

Got the win so it's good I guess..

All have been correct calls. It isn't bad officiating - it's Alabama playing horrible defense.

It was more of a comment about us not being able to play defense without fouling.

 

[footballer]

Nice, Big win. Still playing sloppy and not so smart at times. Got a ways to go yet to get to the corner before making that turn.

Beat the top of the SEC and can't beat the other ones.

Bucky definitely is a good coach. He coached the end of that game very well and got his guys in good position to attack Alabama. Their full court press is hard to do for 40 minutes in a game when you're playing at a ridiculous pace. Credit to them.

Oats is going to have to replace Adams and really nail better transfers.
