 :tinfoil:

7-7 early in game.




 :clap:

Quinerly, our point guard, is out with a “medical condition” tonight & maybe Saturday. Virus or something else?

I think Primo is the PG tonight. UF 22 Tide 21 7:50 left in game. Do I need to mention that we are 1/4 FT tonight?



 :deadhorse:

Tide 16 rebounds, UF 10



 :clap:

Good hustle & effort all half by Tide. Tide 39 UF 32 HALF



 #+

Tide starting out of sync in 2nd half but picking it up now, 43-39 Tide. Jones has 3 fouls. Scored and fouled Petty. He’s looked solid on D and all areas of game. Whoa, long 3 by Ellis for Tide. He has not been used much during the season but if he keeps shooting like this he will play more. He’s 3/3 in 3 pointers so far. He’s a Juco transfer, 6’6” guard.



 :popcorn:

Tide hitting on all cylinders right now, 51-41 Tide.



 :P

Tide hits 2 FT then rebounds missed UF shot. Rojas cores & fouled & hits for 3. Tide 56-43, 12:54 left.



 :wave: :wave: :wave:

Petty hits a moon shot, 61-46 Tide after Rojas gets lay-up. I like it, I like it.



 :behave:

Rebounds: Tide 33, UF 25
Tide 7/14 3 pointers, UF 4/10

Tide 61-48 10:54 left



 :clap: :clap:

Tide has hit 10 FT in a row. No way! Must be a misprint. Tide 16/20 80% in FT. I have not been drinking or taking drugs, I promise. Tide 74-58, 6 minutes left.



 :jump:

Tide making lay-ups left & right. Tide 79-61, 3:46 left in game. Well, this is how my week has been going: Tide destroyed Notre Dame in football, beat #7 Tennessee in basketball, my mother celebrated her 93rd birthday, my daughter just had her birthday, and Tide beats solid UF basketball team 86-71.




 :toast2: :toast2: :toast2:  (with Coke, I don’t drink)

 #+ #+ #+ for MD and the Tide BB team. Hey MD this back to back ranked teams right? RTR!

Another big win!!!  Three conf wins in a row.  I can't remember that.

Tide 46% FG, 8/20 40% 3 pointers (very good %), & 76% FT shooting

 :-*

JQ missed because of a medical condition and they did not elaborate on the condition.

I watched the 2nd half.  This team is much different than what we have grown accustomed to over the last several years.

Buckling up??

I think SC is buckling up his hard hat.  :lol2:

A fantastic win last night.  That was the best I've seen an Alabama team look since possibly the Oklahoma game 2 years ago.

During the game the announcers said the last time we started the season 3-0 was 86-87 season. That was IMO Wimp Sanderson's best team with D McKey, T Conner, M Gottfried, J Farmer and M Ansley. We won the SEC, D McKey was SEC POY and advanced to the Sweet 16 before getting beat Rick Pitino's Providence team lead by red hot shooting Billy Donovan.

One thing I truly believe is helping us you don't hear CNO talking about the past he is talking about what we have to do to get better. If our recruiting picks up any watch out then. We have become a potent team. RTR!

 :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

Move over boys, I am back on the band wagon.  I will not buckle up though.  I don't anticipate the bus being wrapped around a telephone pole this time.

Truth be told, even when I don't want to watch, I still sneak a peak with one eye open.  I can't help myself.

Bama took the lead with about 5:24 left in the first half.  UF tied it up with a quick 8-0 run in the beginning of the second half.   Then zBama scored and never trailed or was tied for the rest of the 2nd half.
