Game thread: Alabama at Tennessee

There are no easy wins in the SEC. Florida beats LSU. A & M got Auburn. I'll be surprised if we play close in KVille. Shoot some three's. Roll Tide !
 
Who would have ever thought? A Herb Jones iso turned into a turnover.

Welp, the battle is all even so far. Only 44 minutes and 4 seconds to go!
 
Yeah sucks that Herb starts as our PG tonight. Just hoping Coach has a plan with him. Got to believe he sees something at practice that we aren’t seeing. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Oats and Petty need to get over their thing. It’s time to get Petty some shots. Every Herb iso should be a Petty set.

Apparently Oats wants penetration to open up the 3. Jones and Q are the only 2 who have shown the ability to do that.

What's up with this rotation? Right now Oats doesn't have any shooters on the floor. Not one!

Makes sense, but I’m afraid most defenses might just let Herb go in and “attempt”the layup or shot in front of the basket.

Playing tough right now. Refs impacting the game though. Got to keep the Vols off the offensive glass..

It’d help if we run some things and get some motion. Be a lot easier to penetrate. But I don’t consider Herb much of a penetrator.

And right after I post that he turns it over off the dribble.
 
Tennessee is really struggling. I think we are causing some of it with great defense. Got hope we have some shots fall for us here soon.
 
Somehow Bama is in this thing, I came into this game just hoping to not get ran out of the gym.

Herb might be the worst offensive player ever. Haha!! Only kidding 😬
Kinda. He needs to shoot a wide open 3 and off rebound. Put the ball in Primos hands more and let him try to make some plays for himself or others.

They are a 3 point shooting team who quiet honestly shouldn't shoot very many 3s. How do you miss this many wide open 3s?
 
Who's number 30 with that awesome rebound. He hadn't got much pt this year, I think he's a walk on. Oats going deep into the bench today...

This team has some streaky shooters like Petty, Shack, and Primo. How do you get streaky shooters going? Get them some easy layups or free throws. Come into the game with a few set plays you are confident in to get those guys going.

Primo needs to be the guy down the stretch. He needs the ball. We’ve seen all these other guys with the ball in their hands for years.
