Alabama clinches the SEC regular-season title tonight with a win
We gotta get better at the rim. We drive down there way too much to not be good at it
It’s kind of maddening the shots we take around the basket. Just bc you are in the paint doesn’t mean it’s a good look. It’s just drive in and throw it up there and pray it goes down. It usually doesn’t
Who would have guessed? Another slow start for Alabama
Alabama trails Mississippi 6-5 heading into the first media timeout. The Crimson Tide starts the game 2 of 11 from the floor and 1 of 5 from deep and hasn't scored in the last 3:30

Yea we gotta get it figured out! The tournament is unforgiving on this stuff. George Mason starts out hot and we start like this and your tourney life is on the line 5 minutes into a game
I think they all forgot how to hit a basket. Many good looks, refs are letting them play and they can’t hit anything. Luckily Miss State not hitting much either.
I am definitely in the minority here Tony, but JQ should be starting imo.
ROLL TIDE!!!
It’s frustrating bc we’ve all seen what this team is capable of during the first 8 league games. Since then we have been in a funk. We have found ways to win a lot of games which is awesome but we aren’t going deep playing like this and I think we all know that. I fear we just peaked too soon
I love Gary! I wish he had better size but he is our most effective “big.” Gets after it, great at positioning himself for rebounds on both ends, and athletic enough to run the floor and make big plays. He has brain farts sometimes but name someone who doesn’t
Alabama is on a 15-1 run over the last 5:14. The Tide leads Mississippi State 20-9 with 7:11 left in the half.
Jahvon Quinerly leads the Tide with 8 points, while Herbert Jones has a team-high six rebounds already.

Herb looks awful on offense. If he tries anything other than passing it’s usually a negative outcome.
Halftime: Alabama 34, Mississippi State 21
After a slow start, the Tide is shooting 40 percent from the floor and 42 percent (5 of 12) from deep. Jahvon Quinerly has a game-high 15 points.

JQ put the 1st half on his shoulders and has produced. Bama looking like they are getting into a rythmn.
Apparently State didn’t get the memo that you are supposed to flop on the ground after shooting against us. But there is no Doug Shows to help them
The refs are really letting them play. I wonder if they got a memo after Wed night?
Once again, our opponent's best play is a shot, a miss, an offensive rebound and an easy bucket. Why can't we ever seem to get a rebound??
Not sure the numbers but pretty sure we’re owning the boards
