Sweet 16, Elite 8, and Final Four are all driveable for me if we get put there. From my understanding the overall 1 seed gets the region closest to them, correct? So let's go get it. I do prefer a loss somewhere near the end but before SEC tournament. Kind of a refresh in motivation. Seems to benefit teams. It did that final 4 team.

boisnumber1 2,814 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Glad this was a Tuesday game. Gives us a few days to put it behind us and move on. We seem to always play poorly against ole sis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cole256 16,957 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Happy we won but we're not playing to our potential. But we're still learning each other. I still haven't wrote my stuff about the team I usually do because I feel like we're still so new. I had hoped we would handle the ball better but we caused them to turn the ball over more than us. It was dangerous because that's how you let teams get wins, especially teams with the 3 ball potential. I wish Z was a more solid ball handler but I'm hoping decision making gets better each game. I remember the team we had with Harper and chuma and the rest I would say in every post just about that it's always great to learn stuff each game but when you don't necessarily play great and you get to learn from it AND you still get a win, that's the best case scenario 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravejd 3,263 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I gotta get back in here and call out one more thing on Cardwell. And that is how intelligently he played in this game. I have been a little disappointed in his play this season. I thought a lot of it was due to him getting block happy and being out of control. Accumulating a lot of fouls in very few minutes. But last night he knew he had to stay out of foul trouble and still impact the game and that is exactly what he did. I think this bama game could really be a jumping off point for Cardwell. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really makes a lot of sense to me as a pro wrestling fan, watching how he invited the crowd noise and had a sense of ruthless aggression about him. Anyways, I like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people have complained, rightfully so, about the fouls on Kessler but IMO I think it will turn out to be the best thing that could have happened. We still won the games and it allowed for Cardwell to get more SEC experience that wasn't in a small role. He proved that he could play controlled but high-energy defense for long stretches of the game. It will just make us more deadly later on in the season knowing that we can go to Cardwell more often and give Kessler more breaks. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a ton more things that can be done for Pearl and the bball program, but the individuals that got AA (which is ridiculously small but constructed perfectly for the advantage it creates) built and those who stuck their neck out for Pearl in ~2017. Season tickets have been sold out for years as I understand, and those holders actually show up to games We’re at least doing several times more for our ball program than our two rivals, and enough to compete with Tenn and Kentucky, which feels sensational Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxCohen216 514 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 The good news about this game is: 1. We got into a dog fight with our evil rival, on the road. 2. Our numerous fans in attendance were LOUD. 3. We got into a lot of foul trouble, early in each half. 4. We shot terrible at the foul line, while Alabama shot it very well. They made more free throws than we attempted, and they shot a high percentage. 5. We turned the ball over a lot. Yet we still won. And had a 14-point lead late. We're awesome. And Alabama is not. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
