I’m assuming she stayed in Washington to finish her high school career? And I’m assuming she’s going to stay there and played for the Huskies? Anybody know how shes playing this spring wherever she is?

We are proud to announce our partnership with Autograph. Just like Grant Nelson against UNC, Autograph is coming in clutch for Crimson Tide fans! They celebrated Alabama's trip to the round of 8 with $16 tickets today.




We dropped a signed Mark Sears basketball in the app this afternoon for our Alabama fans. Users that claim the offer, before 04/01 at 12PM PT, will be eligible for the chance to purchase the item on Monday for $24. We’ll select one winner!

try not to throw off on our players. I've done it and most all of us have. were all human and basketball can be frustrating, but this is a good group of guys giving their best. roll ****ing tide.

Did anyone notice the key play Dioubate made last night when the score was 87-85 and UNC turned it over on the shot clock violation? Go back and watch the replay the officials reviewed to see if the UNC shot hit the rim. When the ball comes off the backboard Bacot had perfect position on Dioubate to grab the rebound and get what should have been an easy put back bucket. But Bacot got caught flat footed and Dioubate got up quicker and knocked the ball away and the shot clock violation occurred. Huge play the announcers never talked about.

What time do we play tomorrow? Bama vs Clemson that is

I will never get tired of typing that title. I am 32 years old and before Nate Oats, I have only experienced one Sweet 16 or deeper run in 2004. Nate Oats has done it now 3 times in the past 4 years. Incredible.

What a game this was. It was absolute street fight for the first half, and while the lack of calls was horrendous, I didn't mind it as much because there was still a nice flow to the game. In the second half, every possession ended in a foul for Grand Canyon and it was annoying. Alabama got called for a foul on 8 straight GCU possessions at one point in the 2nd half. This was a fight, similar to games against Tennessee, but thankfully these guys were far less talented. Alabama's depth and athleticism won in the end, as they dominated the offensive boards 12-6 in the second half.

Mark Sears is having one of the best NCAA Tournaments in Alabama history scoring 31 and now 26 in back to back games in the tournament. He has been incredible and the consistent star this team desperately needed. Mo Dioubate and Nick Pringle deserve the hard hat tonight as they played so hard and made winning plays in the end. Dioubate had two offensive rebounds late in the game that led to points, and the game sealing lay up with 1:30 left. Alabama held Grand Canyon scoreless for the final 4:05 of the game and outscored them 17-3 after GCU took a 58-55 lead with 6:03 left.\

They face #1 seed North Carolina in the Sweet 16 which will be a monstrous test facing RJ Davis and Armando Bacot. This is where Alabama misses having a guy like Charles Bediako to match up with guys like Bacot. He gave Bacot fits last year in the 4OT win in Maui. If Alabama can defend like they did tonight, but shoot how they typically do, then they can make it a very interesting game.

What a great stretch of Alabama basketball we are witnessing the past 4 years.

Everyone knows that Chris has a history of being a little subdued on his broadcast of the game and being a calm mild mannered broadcaster, never showing any emotion. I sure wish you would post it if you have it.

It’s not a lot but it’s something!

Okay Bama historians, where does yesterday’s W rate all-time for us?

Had to be one of, if not the best bball game I've seen in a while, not just an Alabama game but any game I've seen in years. One team throws a haymaker and the other answers with their own haymaker. Extremely proud of this team and especially for Nelson.

I know everybody is understandably focused on Grant Nelson (who basically morphed into Larry Bird last night)...but, my God...let's not forget that Rylan Griffen played a nearly flawless game!

He was hitting 3-point daggers all night...and - most importantly - he locked down the ACC player of the year with his fantastic defensive performance.

So damn proud of this team...GREAT GAME, Rylan!! 😋

we need to shoot the lights out.

The first half seemed like it was extra fast. The first part of the 2nd half seemed a little slower and it picked up. It seemed like the Bama rotation was a little bit longer. And I think they got into our pace a little more than they needed to. And that hurt them down the stretch. Our pace is just different. It’s not the same fast that most fast teams play.

Down 6-3 to Kentucky in 7th inning WITH Beavers starting.

Kentucky was 0-6 in SEC coming into tonight.

2-5 in SEC right around the corner. I rest my case. Murphy is done.

Moving on in our voting for players who excelled on special teams, we turn our attention to Kickoff Returners. We have had some good kickoff returners, excellent athletes who have courage and speed and find a way to move through coverage teams with acceleration and vision to make maximum yardage to provide the best field position on each return or possibly take it to the house. Please vote on the (1) best kickoff returner of the Saban Era.

And I am happy about that. Now revenge.

This is funny. Willie, the closer, is everywhere.

Hey guys! SEC play is finally here and I want to do a thread where everyone can pick the games every day and keep a running tally as the season goes. Also, we can use this thread for conversation on the SEC games going on as well.

Go back to your post you made your selections and add in your record at the bottom once the games are complete.

After today, I’m going to sticky this thread at the top so you don’t have to scroll and find it!

Here’s my picks today:

South Carolina over Miss St
Kentucky over Florida
Missouri over Georgia
Auburn over Arkansas
Texas A&M over LSU
Tennessee over Ole Miss
Alabama over Vanderbilt.

5-2 Not a bad start!
