what is bama`s

best chance at getting a number 1 seed at this point?
i think KY beats Ms State and that Ky game scares me. they are playing a lot better as a team and they obviously are loaded with talent. gotta beat them first and go from there.

Got to win out and hope for Ohio St to fall on their face. >5% chance IMO. Meeting an on fire Arky in the conference championship would help too.
 
Illinois all but rapped up the last 1 seed with win against buckeyes!good news is all the teams battling for a 2 seed lost today except bama! Bama will almost without a doubt be a 2 seed no matter what happens in sec tournament! Something to look for is can Arkansas reach a 2 seed by next weekend

Good grief. For anyone to actually think Alabama is a number one seed is slipping. Realistically we are a good team but not a great team. The SEC is way way down this year. I’ll be thrilled if we make the Sweet 16!
Actually, the SEC is as good as it’s been since 2007-08 according gif KenPom. That’s a tired narrative.
 
No chance we have a 1 seed. We're surrounded by big 10 teams, so even if a few of them lose out, they won't all lose out

Sounds like you need to grow a pair.

Definitely won’t take 5 or 6 teams to falter. Only 1 but there’s not enough time for that to happen
So, you are saying we are number five at this time and we are going to win out? Which team ahead of us is going to lose two games? Not hating, just being realistic.
 
I think some of you only watch Alabama basketball games and then think we are terrible because we don’t make every shot. Go watch any basketball game and they have turnovers and bone headed plays. It’s just part of basketball. Some of you really need to realize how good this team really is.
 
How did we do against ranked teams. That I think they were in the 15-25s. I didn’t say they were not good. The question was about #1 seed possibilities. This and end of season momentum are very important. How many times have we played our “A Game” in the last five weeks? I didn’t join this thread to bash Bama, I was just answering a question.

That’s exactly what I said, not about winning out, but Only one team is ahead of us and there’s not enough time for them to lose 2-3 games.
 
I guess we will see. Typically about half of what you say seems valid. You have a long way to go to be even remotely close to as good as our football mods.

I sure hope I am wrong about Bama, but I just do see it.

The SEC NET this year is #2. The SEC RPI this year is #3. That is the highest the SEC has been ranked as a whole in at least the last 10 years, possibly ever.

Based on your name alone, I’d say you’re probably new over here. Great to meet you! Bone is the GOAT of the industry and Kyle and the others are doing great too. I’m just a lost puppy trying to find my way over here.

Harper-- He just needs to take his butt back to his football mods and enjoy themselves in his double wide trailer. I think you have done a great job with basketball information. We need more of folks like you who are ALABAMA ATHLETIC FANS, and not just football fans alone. Keep it up.

There are 350 division 1 basketball teams. We are ranked 8th for a reason. It means we are pretty damn good. Look what happened to Ohio State. They are still really good, but they have fallen apart recently. I get what you are saying, but this team has never been the hunted until this year. They got every team’s best shot. I think they handled it well. Finishing 16-2 in the SEC is impressive. I don’t feel like there is a just a terrible team in the SEC except for Vandy. They still have scorers who can shoot them into games.

Bama was down 14 on the road against GA, and they settled down and won with defense and fantastic shooting. When they played Mizzou, they were down over 20 and still had a chance to win at the end. I won’t comment on the AK game because it was ridiculous officiating. This team can beat any team in the tournament. I am enjoying the ride as I expect to see something special at the end of this season.

If there is a script A on their jersey, I support them. Football, basketball, tiddly winks, I don't care. They are Bama and they deserve our support.

I hope I am completely wrong about all of it. I hope we win the SEC and Natty. However, for whatever reason I think the competition is down across America. Yes there are about 3/4 elites. After that there is a log jam of teams that can beat each other any day. Bama is in that log jam. If we knew if hot Bama or cold Bama was going to show then we would have a better feel on them.

Not a single person expects us to win the national championship. Even if we were far and away the best team I wouldn't expect us to win the championship. It's ok to think we're one of the best teams in the country and not feel bad about it

I think there’s only a few elites because the country as a whole are a lot more equal than normal. The SEC is as strong statistically than it has been in nearly 15 years. Big 10 is loaded. Big 12 is stacked. College basketball has a lot of parity which is really good. Parity is why college football is nearly unwatchable right now because there is none.
 
I love it when guys come busting in on this board and start telling us stupid stuff like Bama is not a really good team because the SEC is way down or some other completely baseless facts.
I love it because we have a really good core of very knowledgeable people on this board that will set them straight and also when our dedicated mod makes them look silly. Thanks to all!

You actually have an excellent point on that for sure. It just doesn’t seem right to have Duke, NC, Mi State and Ky all down at the same time. Maybe that’s what I am seeing to skew my thoughts. I’ve watched 17 or 18 band games this season. I love coach O for sure. I like the direction we are heading.

Yeah each team you’ve mentioned, except Self, have coaches that are old and are being passed by younger more analytically driven coaches. That’s why that is happening. It was bound to happen eventually.

College football is very watchable. Yes Bama has processed nearly all the relevant football teams in America. And I have enjoyed every season of it for the past twelve years.

I would have agreed with this statement if you had of worded it as coaches not willing to change, but to just use the age word of old is really not that agreeable to me.
