Alabama rarely loses this year. When they do? Opposing teams pray they’re not next on the schedule. The past two games Alabama lost, then won by an average of 53 points. Not their fault they’re next on the schedule. Tonight it was 108-59.
From the beginning of this game, you knew how it would transpire. Alabama hit their first two threes and that led to a 30-8 run in the first 8 minutes. The guards were doing whatever they wanted and Brandon Miller was hitting everything. That’s the recipe for a blowout. Miller had a very easy 21 points in 23 minutes and showed all of his greatness. Nick Pringle finished with 19 points and 12 rebounds in 21 minutes in what is his best game in his Alabama career. He showed great defense and finishing ability around the rim.
Alabama shot 16/34 from 3 and they also shot 23/29 from 2. Has to be one of the most efficient offensive nights any team has had all season. When this team plays with so much ball movement and motion, it’s impossible to stop. There’s a reason this team is a #1 overall seed and possibly going to retain their #1 ranking, even with the loss to Tennessee. They hurt you in so many ways and they play elite defense.
Alabama retains their 1 game lead over Texas A&M, with Alabama traveling to South Carolina and A&M facing Tennessee at home. It’s going to be a rather tight race seems like.
