ROFL if you want to see something hilarious, watch the last shot and Barnes still seems mad that it didn't appear to be what he wanted them to do.

Him and ZZ were trying to call a TO after JM crossed half court and they ignored him and he was pissed. Then ball goes in and he shrugs lol. ZZ Jsut stands there in disbelief lol

It looked like he yelled at Gainey or Lanier one asking "What are you doing?" after the shot went in lol.
 
So, what a day. I had a family event I had to go to today so couldn’t watch the game live. I was furious all week. Biggest game of the year, and of course family had to plan something right at 4:00 at tip off.

I turned my phone off, recorded the game, and somehow managed to not see the score for 6 straight hours till I got home at 10.

Just finished watching the game. I have no words. What a stressful freaking game. But incredible game.

The funny thing is I just KNEW we were going to lose because my recording was almost over after Alabama had the ball with a chance to take the last shot for the win. I turned to my father-in-law (who had known the score for the past 4 hours) and said, “This is about to be so painful. The recording is almost over, Alabama is going to win it at the buzzer.”

He just smirked and then the rest was history. I screamed. My wife thought I was getting murdered.

I mean….I could not be happier for Mashack. He took a game that Alabama had a vice grip on in the final minute and almost single-handedly won it. The Lanier show was obviously huge.

I’m stunned we won. Alabama lead basically all game it felt like. Mashack has meant so much to this program, and to see him get a moment like that in his next to last game before his career in TBA ends is heart-warming. What an exhausting game. But I couldn’t be happier.

If it makes you feel any better, I watched live and also said we would lose the whole time. You went through it all, just like live.

As you said great win for the program, for shack, and for us, as fans. This is the type of stuff we need in the tourney - I had tons of fun today, but this is the type of game that never seems to go our way. Glad it did today.

I can’t believe our offensive efficiency dipped 3 spots after that game. I didn’t think we shot poorly at all. Guess I just need to come to terms that this team is going to waffle between 25-30 the rest of the year most likely.

There's something really special about this group. I'm not sure they've put together a 40-minute game all season aside from maybe A&M, but they just find a way to get the job done, and it seems that it's different guys stepping up every night. I honestly believe this team has what it takes to go the whole distance, and there isn't a team out there that I'd be afraid to face. I'm not sure I've felt the same about any other Barnes team.
 
So is there something up with how the crowd noise is wired up for TV? The crowd didn’t seem loud on TV even on the game winning shot.

But the announcers especially Dykes said it was the loudest they’d ever heard it in there.

It definitely sounded louder than any other game this year on TV for me. But if you go watch videos that people took at the game, the TV sound doesn’t do it justice. Idk if it varies from arena to arena on how it sounds through the TV but it was definitely loud.

It was much louder in person than on the replay. There were times it was as loud as I've heard TBA, especially the final minute.

Haven’t looked, but I’d guess there are a crazy amount of possessions.
