Bama making 3s like this and nobody will beat them. This is unreal

 

[kiddiedoc]

I'm not sure if the Lakers could beat Bama if they shoot like this.

 

[VolCalls]

You can’t beat Bama by trying to out-Bama them if you’re already at a talent disadvantage.

Came here to say this, these two teams play the same game, but Bama has twice the athletes.

Duke will completely shut them down. I don’t think that game will be close.

Bama going to end up with 110!

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Bama hanging 150?!?

Goodness Sears going off

If Duke tries to run with them, Bama has a real shot. Play defense, Bama a goner.

Duke plays excellent defense.

Bingo. They beat KY thrice. You can’t beat Bama in a foot race.

Geez Bama is going to set a NCAAT record for points.

 

[Matt_Netherlands]

Alabama is a team that can look unbeatable on certain nights but if they play a team that can score right there with them that also plays a semblance of defense, ala Florida twice this year, they are imminently beatable.

Nah - they’d need to score 53 in the last 7 minutes. That won’t happen.

This is what I said earlier but BYU has the worse 3 point defense of anyone left in tournament.
Those looks won't be so easy for Bama in next games.

Yeah I just looked this up, crazy.

Yep. Alabama looks great against teams that are subpar defensively, but if you play even a little bit of D on them, they are in trouble. Duke isn’t BYU, lol.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Must be cool to have an offense like this.

 

[Voltopia]

Going to commercial, they show Florida's player in slow motion dribbling to face up from the free throw line, bounce the ball, place a hand on the ball, take a step and then take two more steps shuffling to a stop before he shot the ball. I know I'm a broken record but this crap is just stupid. Sears took four steps on an assist earlier in Alabama's game - four - and no one even said a word. It wasn't even hard to spot. Gah. This sport.

 

[johnboyhunter]

Sears is on fire. 34

Nah, they getting their arse kicked.
UCONN is who choked.

 

[volsarelife1]

This Sears game is reminding me of the Jodie Meeks game against us. Where fans just started cheering for Meeks. Same for Sears to me. Incredible to see someone catch fire like this as a basketball fan

 

[Nico ee-ah-MAH-LAY-ah-va]

Maryland is allergic to rebounding

The LMU and UNLV teams in that time frame were very fun to watch

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

They got a first team All-American point guard.
We have a 3rd team All-American point guard.
There should be a difference but not this stark.
ZZ needs to take it to the basket more like Sears.
He is very capable of doing it ( we've seen him do it with much success in some games). If he doesn't, IMO we don't beat KY.

 

[TrapVol]

I read he had a desire to play for UT but didn’t want to sit behind ZZ. Since that spot opens up next year maybe he’ll still be interested?

Interesting. I’d certainly take him if he wanted to transfer.

Terps imploding. Late karma for the travel.
