Staying healthy will also be key....we see if teams like Alabama and Houston can keep the pedal to the metal or if complacency rears it's head.
It was Providence and in the Sweet 16 against some little white guard named Billy Donovan and slick looking coach Rick Pitino. We finished 28-5 SEC champs, regular season and tournament. That was a fun group to watch with Terry Coner and Keith Adkins too. Craig Dudley, not Erwin for those that may not know.January 24th, 1987, Alabama beats Tennessee to mark a 15-2 record.
January 14th, 2023, a Bama win over LSU Saturday and the Tide will match that record...three and a half decades later.
It just crazy to me thinking I was two years out of high school that season...hell of a fun team to watch. If I'm not mistaken, the Tide was a two seed that year losing to Providence in the first round.
McKey, Ansley, Dudley, Farmer, Gottfried ...
