Last time a first year Barn BB coach beat Bama was 1964.

This is the most physical I have seen Tide play in long time. Tide 29-25.

17 rebounds (Barn 13)



 :wave:

31-30 Tide 3:30 left in half

Mason killing us with 16 points. 6/8 FG, 3/4 3 pointers. Need to smother him with D.

Cooper now guarding Mason. Levi being hesitant in shooting. Announcer just called him out.

Tide has 9 turnovers in 1st half.



 :wall:

Crap!!!! 4 turnovers in-a-row & Barn keeps scoring on them. 34-31 Barn. Coleman hits 2 FT. 34-33 Barn.

Tide has gotten very sloppy. Must have at least 11 turnovers, now. 36-33 Barn.  HALF



 :facepalm:

Another sloppy first half ending.  Same old song.

Tide has 13 turnovers. Mason hits a 3, 44-43  Barn.

Yeah, song & verse. That's so frustrating.

Cooper gets the roll...  And Bama leads by 2

Mason (19 points) & Harrell (14 points) are all that's keeping Barn in game.

Great win for the players, bouncing back after the Vandy mess.  And I think this is the 3rd SEC road win, which may be some progress on that statistic.

Still toooooo many turnovers.

But always good to beat the Barn...at anything!

The best part was watching the barnrats jumping off the ship with 2 minutes to go and a double digit deficit.  Wouldn't you agree Clint?

:clintyes:

:lol: :lol:

Excellent!

 :lol: :lol:

Auburn hit a late 3 pointer and then put on a press after Bama had just been running clock.  There really wasn't enough time for a comeback, maybe they were trying to make the score closer.  I really like that Obasohan went down the court and got the exclamation point basket!!  Take that Barn!!

This.  Was really nice to rub it in a bit.

Have an ecred for an observant post, and the proper attitude.   :lol: #+

 :wave:

Great to see a new poster Tear Away. Hope you post more.

I thought both teams played well last night. The barn played about as well in the 1st half as I have seen them play all year. Mason was on fire. We shot the ball well, rebounded and played with a purpose. The barn is not a very good team but we went into their gym, in front of a hostile crowd, and beat them easily. This was a team win. Everyone played well.

It was a much needed win for our program. It was good to see we have not given up on the season. We have two good seniors in Randolph and Cooper and I think they will not let this team quit. I was also glad to see a little fire out of CAG.

It feels a lot better to celebrate a win than to complain about losing. CAG has had his ups and downs but he owns the barn. He is now 9-3 against them.

It did surprise me they had so many inbreds in the stands :tinfoil:

I was very proud of how the team handled the crowd at Auburn and for the first time in a very long time the team played with a purpose. Their performance last night is what they could have been doing all season and it's sad their season has to be what is today.

Anyway, congrats to the seniors and I know they must be proud of how they finished against Auburn. :clap:

Surprised? Are you not familiar with the barn?  :lol2:

 ... by definition.  :dunno:
