Alabama chat rooms

[Waquoit]

I still want to know who's scoring at the rim for Alabama.

LOL!! Have they ? Not even a little. Raw points per possession for their opponents ? 1.31, 0.86, 1.21 and 1.15. Average of 1.133

 

[Mr. Wonderful]

There was a quote by Calhoun one time. I can only paraphrase. “ They want to run with us. We’ll show them about running”

That was 2004 and said about Georgia Tech.

And where is this "Uconn's not tall" idiocy coming from ? On average, taller than Alabama. UConn's guards are bigger than Alabama's and our guards rebound the ish out of the ball. Pringle is the only guy on Alabama in the top 500 in rebound rate. UConn has Clingan, Johnson, Newton, and Castle, and Spencer just led the team in rebounds against Illinois.

Add this to the wall of disrespect. Castle the 13th of 20 FF starters:

According to EvanMiya (BPM) this list is actually (not just starters, but top 14):

Player	EvanMiya BPM	Player	EvanMiya BPM
1) Zach Edey	11.73	8) Hassan Diarra	6.69
2) Donovan Clingan	10.91	8) Aaron Estrada	6.69
3) Braden Smith	8.37	10) Mark Spears	6.38
4) Tristen Newton	8.07	11) Lance Jones	6.13
5) Stephon Castle	7.54	12) Mason Gillis	5.77
6) Cam Spencer	7.52	13) Fletcher Loyer	5.40
7) Alex Karaban	6.99	14) Rylen Griffen	5.32

Yes, the Big East 6th man of the year had more of an impact on games than any player on the NC State roster

football school.

The football program is in decline even with Saban. The basketball program is in ascendance. It is only a matter of time before they are Kentucky without the whites-only titles.

 

[Bboy Lace]

You kinda suck.

You're cool!

 

[Leebo]

They're right to think their defense in the tournament has been better.

On Torvik, they're #117 in defensive efficiency for the season. For the tournament span, they're #53.

Better, but still not amazing.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

You have to understand. This is the fanbase we're talking about here. For sure, this hillbilly has been kicked in the head by a mule before, right?

That’s actually the president of the University of Alabama.

Time really does fly. Feels like yesterday watching the 04 squad dominate Alabama with BG going berserk, I remember exactly where I was etc. Can't wait to replicate that feeling saturday night!

Rashad went berserk, Taliek with 10 assists, and the best part may have been Okafor's left handed block.

 

[gsmooth]

Rashad went berserk, Taliek with 10 assists, and the best part may have been Okafor's left handed block.

And Okafor only played for the first 40 seconds of the 2nd half until Calhoun decided to rest him for his back injury.

So by the "tournament span" does Torvik mean only the teams that played in the NCAA or NIT. If that is the case #53 is not at all impressive. They gave up 96 to Charleston (average 80), 87 to UNC (average 81.5, and 82 to Clemson (average 77.4). Their defensive masterpiece was giving up 61 to 12 seed Grand Canyon (average 79.8) and this was Charles Barkley's quote regarding the GCU's offense "I’m not sure what they were doing offensively, I don’t think they ran a play in the entire second half… That was some of the dumbest basketball I’ve ever seen grown college men play.

 

[Scot-e]

I believe AW has to post those comments per the Judge mojo hangings.

My bad.

 

[DRBackup]

Wasn’t that the game when Anderson was ‘onions’

That was the dagger 3 against Washington to force OT in 2006

Of course they're higher, there are no losses in the calculation.

 

[August_West]

My bad.

I have no judges rulings against me this year. In fact Mr. Softee simple judge apparently put me on ignore.

Saban retired.

I was mostly trying to make the point that it's still not "good" even if they're impressed by it.

OK, so then they're in the Northwestern or St. John's range of mediocrity on D instead of BC or Kentucky.

 

[B1GEast]

Those fans are going to experience what their dominant football team did to the other teams, but on the opposite side.

Not Roll Tide, but get rolled over Tide

 

[QuickDraw]

the tide isn't coming in, it's rolling out
LOW TIDE!

And Okafor only played for the first 40 seconds of the 2nd half until Calhoun decided to rest him for his back injury.

IIRC, an Alabama player hit EO with a hard foul (nearly pulled his head sideways) and Emeka had a sore neck, which was a concern leading up to the final four.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

The Pace they play at is way too fast and we are not conditioned for such a game. We have not faced anyone like Alabama.

Waiting for him to throw chicken legs to the alligator

 

[uconn_jack]

My daughter who is clueless about sports, asked why in the hell they are named after a woman's period.
