1) Not much to say except to tip your hat to Kentucky. They played one of its best games of the season to win 86-63. Gabriel hit 7-7 and Kentucky hit 10+ threes when they were the leagues worst 3 point shooting team in the country. Not many teams in the country can beat this Kentucky team when they shoot 64% from the field and 67% from 3. Gabriel averaged 7 points coming into this game and led the two teams in scoring with 24. That's just an anomaly and tip your hat to them.
2) Another different starting lineup. Coach Avery started four freshmen that included Alex Reese for the first time. Alabama outrebounded Kentucky today and only allowed one offense rebound... but that's because Kentucky never missed. Nobody was beating Kentucky today. John Petty was a huge bright spot hitting threes like we know he can. If he regained that confidence, then Alabama will be a very tough out in the NCAA tournament.
3) Now we wait. Alabama will dance and a 8 or 9 seed if I had to guess. I'm liking this team's mindset and moxy heading into the Tournament. They are playing with high confidence. Having Hall back, and hopefully Petty with his confidence back will be huge. Buckle Up! Alabama is going dancing!
