Alabama needs OT to beat 4-11 Jacksonville State

at home 67-59

Yeah Bama is still pretty bad. There have been a few on this board that have said how improved they are and have a chance to make the tournament.

They're breaking in a new coach with inferior talent. Ther's bound to be ups and downs. Record is irrelevant in his first year, you just need to see that the team is making progress. They're probably way ahead of where they want to be, but there's still gonna be clunkers/near clunkers.

It's Alabama. Avery may do okay there but I wouldn't hold my breath.

People thought Anthony Grant was going to do well there too. It's like UK football. It would take a really big name to get anything really good going.

Mizzou won by a hundred..does that count?? People only post negative stuff

No one on this board has said Mizzou had any chance to do anything this year. I've seen several say Alabama did have a chance. And they're wrong.

I think everyone is way too high on Avery Johnson too.

Alabama is never going to be anything in b-ball in that state. Auburn has the much better coach in Pearl and will do a lot better in years to come once he really gets his guys/system in place.

well Bama is in right now if the tourney started today by the bracket people so who cares if they almost lost . Almost doesn't count. Now in the end I think they will end up a NIT team with the Tourney teams being UK ,Vandy, USC , A&M , UF . UGA , LSU and Bama will have to win alot in the league to get that 6th bid.
