Title: The Difference Between Auburn and Alabama Basketball
Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 06, 2019, 10:18:40 PM
Outstanding article & observations.




Quote
The nervous energy that Alabama used to keep this final game against its chief rival close for most of the game betrayed them when it mattered most. It was like watching an unprepared student cram for a final exam, and then sitting down to take it only to realize it wasn’t a multiple choice test at all, but an essay.


Quote
Pearl has a team built on trust here with one game left in the regular season for both teams. His counterpart couldn’t even find someone to get off a shot attempt in the final 90 seconds of the game.

And the sound inside that building after that second turnover by Lewis — the sound inside Coleman Coliseum was the biggest indictment of all.

One big collective exhale of exasperation.

Not a sigh of disappointment, but a grumbling of disgust.

How did that just happen … again?
