@ Alabama Tonight

[PGHBulldogBG]

Well this will be fun…

[MedDawg]

Why do we have to play two top 4 teams twice in the first month?!?

[confucius say]

We've had the toughest schedule in the league so far

[Goldendawg]

Why do we have to play two top 4 teams twice in the first month?!?

LT helping us out on scheduling in SEC office.***. He was at the FL game and spoke to a couple on the row we sat on before the game. Didn't speak to my friend, my son, or me. Guess he didn't see us!****

He's a dick to anyone he doesn't know. He'll either outright ignore you or be extremely short. Seen him do it to multiple people even when he was the AD, but especially after.

[Ranchdawg]

I totally agree. If you didn?t carry a bank vault with you or some how know him personally you were totally invisible to him. He was a total prick to me and my family on more than one occasion when he was AD.

[confucius say]

I'm surprised we're only 11.5 underdogs tonight. Alabama is the best team in the league.
Was 12.5 this morning.

[NCMSTFAN]

As crazy as it sounds, we have played Bama the closest in SEC play this season. Every other game of theirs were blowouts.

Of course it's a huge long shot but if we find a way to keep it close early who knows what can happen. Upsets in basketball happen every week. Again, I know it's a long shot but I do feel like we play them good tonight

[msstate7]

Hopefully Jans is recruiting their bench tonight during postgame handshakes. I'm sure they have a shooter or 2 we desperately need

[Turfdawg67]

It's been a brutal schedule accentuated by unrealistic fans. UT and UA have destroyed teams this year but we've played them very tough. We'll lose by 40 tonight because I typed that...

ETA: Jans will get some guys from the portal and then we'll be talented AND well coached! Refreshing and exciting.

[TUSK]

[RocketDawg]

Should be an interesting game. No doubt our guys will be up for the game. Maybe they'll be on a hot shooting streak tonight - you just never know.

[Goldendawg]

He's a dick to anyone he doesn't know. He'll either outright ignore you or be extremely short. Seen him do it to multiple people even when he was the AD, but especially after.

Yeah, I was standing with a few big donor Dawgs from my home country as he walked by us at the half of a game in the Jackie years that we were losing. I spoke to him about the game. He stopped, sized me up from head to toe, curtly turned on his heel, and walked away without saying a word. I then shouted to him that if he wouldn't even speak to us, then maybe he was part of the problem. He was. Not missed by me and most Dawgs I have known for 50 years.

[PGHBulldogBG]

Why do we have to play two top 4 teams twice in the first month?!?

Along with @Auburn who is basically impossible to beat at home and is ranked top 15

[schddog72]

Ironic to listen to Finebaum gushing about how he and LT are the best of friends and about how classy, etc. LT is. But I have seen your sentiments and comments about him posted literally hundreds of times on various boards. The most common theme is: "If he knows you, he knows you; if he doesn't know you, you will never know him." But really, why would anyone want to??

[parabrave]

Shak getting the start over Reed/ Jans must read ED.

[EdwardDrayton]

I'm afraid to watch

[PGHBulldogBG]

We may lose by 30 but that was the best 5 minutes of basketball we have played since SEC play started

[EdwardDrayton]

We may lose by 30 but that was the best 5 minutes of basketball we have played since SEC play started

Don't get seduced by the siren's song

[RocketDawg]

We may lose by 30 but that was the best 5 minutes of basketball we have played since SEC play started

I liked the steal where he just took the ball out of the guy's hands.

[civildawg]

These inside post passes are so dumb

[R2Dawg]

Who is this team.

[RocketDawg]

Who is this team.

They're out for redemption. Hope they can keep it up.

[R2Dawg]

Shak getting the start over Reed/ Jans must read ED.

I don't care who starts but Shaq needs most backcourt minutes and McNair needs most post minutes.

[R2Dawg]

They're out for redemption. Hope they can keep it up.

SEC play has been terrible but honestly, we are not that far from being a good team.

[RocketDawg]

Is it just me, or is the color guy pretty irritating? He just won't be quiet.

[RocketDawg]

Why is a moving screen illegal? Seems like a good play to me.

[EdwardDrayton]

DJ probably should take a Turkish language skills class.

[NCMSTFAN]

Good start, I had a feeling we would hang around early. We have to keep it up because they will make runs.. Jans made some really good adjustments

[msstate7]

The only thing miller is better at than basketball is crying like a baby on every call he gets

[HoopsDawg]

Can u believe that charge call?

[RocketDawg]

We're shooting well tonight. Probably should just omit halftime so they don't get cold.

[msstate7]

I really enjoy seeing us play this great team well; but if we played Georgia and Florida like we have bama x2 and Tenn at home. We'd be solidly in the tourney

[msstate7]

Freshman AA crying to get a call

[msstate7]

Ok, maybe refs are gonna give us a shot

[civildawg]

That was a terrible call

[msstate7]

That's a horse shit call

[EdwardDrayton]

What a ridiculous foul on Cam

[msstate7]

College refs loving to call offensive fouls is one of the reasons the sport is getting worse and worse

[civildawg]

Total momentum shift on that terrible call

[R2Dawg]

What a BS cale on Cam. Refs trying to get Bama back in it.l on charge on Cam

[msstate7]

msstate7, go to bed now up 7. Enjoy this "win".

[R2Dawg]

Freshman AA crying to get a call

Bama cries more than any team in America. Oats cries all the time too.

[HoopsDawg]

That charge on Matthews needs to be sent to the SEC office. Cost us at least 3 possibly 5-6 point swing.

[LC Dawg]

Bullshit call on Matthews prevented a 10+ point halftime lead. Defense has played great and we answered every Bama run. I'm trying to casually watch to keep from getting too invested but team gets a lot of credit so far.

[RocketDawg]

That charge on Matthews needs to be sent to the SEC office. Cost us at least 3 possibly 5-6 point swing.

Consensus is that it was a terrible call.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

We will get beat by 15. SEC office on line 1.

[msstate7]

Foul was crap, but it woulda been a 1 and 1. We'd most likely have missed it

[PGHBulldogBG]

I am smart enough to know we lose by double digits but it was our best half of the season. It’s just a shame we didn’t show up like this against UF and UGA or we would be 3-5 heading into a stretch that would allow us to make the tournament

[msstate7]

We will get beat by 15. SEC office on line 1.

Not that the sec would help us in any way, but us winning probably helps the sec more. It would get us closer to the tourney

[msstate7]

This is what makes me mad.

[HoopsDawg]

Should have just been a no call. But that's a foreign concept in college basketball

[msstate7]

Should have just been a no call. But that's a foreign concept in college basketball

Yes it is

[Rawdawg]

Up 7 at halftime and it?s almost like playing our best players has made a difference.

[Alphadog]

Should have just been a no call. But that's a foreign concept in college basketball

Actually shouldn?t it have been a technical for flopping?

[KB21]

This is the best I?ve seen this team play.

[MoreCowbell]

It looks like Jans message was just go have fun tonight

[msstate7]

This is the best I?ve seen this team play.

Hopefully it's starting to click. We desperately need 1 of the games this week, and with an 8-pt 2nd half lead, it needs to be tonight

[msstate7]

50% ft shooter. No one misses FTs vs us

[msstate7]

He slapped the backboard

[Cowbell]

That last out of bounds was last touched by them and now the zebras are gonna intercede....

[parabrave]

DAm refs getting whistle happy. and Toulu make a FT.

[KB21]

That is a ticky tack foul call.

[KB21]

I can feel my blood pressure going up.

[HoopsDawg]

Officials are calling everything. Brutal.

[LC Dawg]

Announcers:
ITS SUCH A PRIVILEGE TO WATCH A GREAT TEAM LIKE BAMA! LET'S TALK ABOUT MILLER AGAIN!
but give mississippi state some credit for being in the game

[msstate7]

I seriously hope that ref's wife is cheating on him with a guy that has aids

[KB21]

What a bullshit foul call

[R2Dawg]

BS call on McNair on Miller. Refs ain't gonna let us win. Too much money in Tusc

[Dawgology]

That wasn’t a foul. At all. I’m going to say this:

Alabama is bad for college athletics. They started the arms race in college football that started the snowball to where we are today. They will do the same thing in college basketball now that pay for play is here.

[LC Dawg]

****ing refs have decided to be a factor.

[msstate7]

That wasn’t a foul. At all. I’m going to say this:

Texas probably gonna take oats, and I'm gonna laugh

[EdwardDrayton]

Bogus call on McNair. The guys are gonna have to regroup and get tough.

[MoreCowbell]

17 these refs

[KB21]

I?ve got a headache now.

[msstate7]

This foul fest is not in our favor. They can shoot FTs, and well, you know

[LC Dawg]

WTF is McNair thinking?

[BulldogBear]

This is why I care but I don't care. College athletics is so incredibly corrupt, filthy, slimey, and dirty.

Show me an Alabama team that can score a TD on us without holding. Seriously go back a decade and watch every TD they've ever scored. You'll find on something like 4 of every 5 there is an obvious blown call.

Nick Saben is the worst thing to happen to college football.

[parabrave]

Well crap.

[msstate7]

Didn't you used to have to be set to draw a charge?

[parabrave]

Hell even Richard says the refs are getting whistle happy.

[R2Dawg]

Didn't you used to have to be set to draw a charge?

Depends on who you are.

[R2Dawg]

Hell even Richard says the refs are getting whistle happy.

That call on Stevens was embarrassing. A sneeze was more of a foul than that.

[Cowbell]

Didn't you used to have to be set to draw a charge?
That was before Bama was good at basketball

[R2Dawg]

Oats is the biggest whinner coach in SEC. He works refs non stop

[EdwardDrayton]

Davis with a three stroke. I want to believe.

[CaptainObvious]

Looks like Oats actually knows how to make half time adjustments. Tolu had 10 pts, 4 boards in first half. This half, 1 point, 1 board.

[LC Dawg]

Our guy gets mauled and Oats reacts like a whiny *****. What a little bitch.

[EdwardDrayton]

Nate Oats is a douche bag.

[HoopsDawg]

Bad substitution by Jans is costing us

[Rawdawg]

Bama 9-2 run when Reed came in

[msstate7]

Nate Oats is a douche bag.

I have no idea if he is or not, but he and musselman have the most punchable faces in sec basketball history

[HoopsDawg]

Should have beaten UF and UGA. Oh well.

[msstate7]

I'm not gonna get mad. Good game dawgs... keep improving

[HoopsDawg]

Bama 9-2 run when Reed came in

You got it. That was ball game.

[msstate7]

Lol, he traveled big time on that layup

[Rawdawg]

You got it. That was ball game.

If someone can find the +\- stats at the end of the game I?d appreciate it. I tried keeping up with his but at around -11 I couldn?t keep up.

[PGHBulldogBG]

Should have beaten UF and UGA. Oh well.

At least got 2 of 3 from Drake UGA and UF

[IngomarDawg]

Jans should call this officiating out. The whistle happy first 5 minutes of the second half has killed our chances of winning this game. Sure we could make more shots but when you?re double bonus from basically the 10 minute mark you win that game 99% of the time.

[EdwardDrayton]

The best performance we are going to get with the talent we have. The guys gave it everything they have to give.

[CaptainObvious]

Has an SEC team ever gone 1-17 in conference play?

[parabrave]

Just got outmanned the last 7 mins.

[IngomarDawg]

How is that the offensive possession you have??????

[KB21]

Reed?s going to pull up for a long two? Really? When you need a three to tie?

[Rawdawg]

Reed shot a 2. Can not make that up.

[LC Dawg]

Horrible ending but follow this with a win over TCU Saturday and I'm good with it.
Also, **** Bama and their whiny ass coach and players.

[msu15]

What a moronic decision to not call a timeout there.

[HoopsDawg]

The best performance we are going to get with the talent we have. The guys gave it everything they have to give.

Close but not quite. We needed the Shak Moore that we had at Rupp last year. DJ is what he is at this point.

[IngomarDawg]

Jans not calling a timeout there is mind blowing maybe it?s hindsight but man that offensive possession was awful from the start?

[HoopsDawg]

We all knew that BS charge at the end of the first half would be the difference.

[LC Dawg]

We all knew that BS charge at the end of the first half would be the difference.

Yep

[EdwardDrayton]

Again don't get lured by the siren's song. We occasionally will shoot well enough in a game to hang. But in the end we do not have the talent to win. Jans better get on his portal horse or hope he likes fishing with his kids.

[StarkVegasSteve]

That is without a doubt one of the worst officiated halves I have ever seen. We picked up 4 fouls in 20 seconds at one point. We played well enough to win tonight. Unfortunately the officials decided Bama was going to win before the game began.

[NCMSTFAN]

The best performance we are going to get with the talent we have. The guys gave it everything they have to give.

Agreed, the guys did play their butts off tonight though. And Jans coached well and threw different defenses at them in that 1st half that confused them some so I have to give him some credit for the 1st half coaching. But in the end it's another loss with TCU coming in

[PGHBulldogBG]

That game is over before it starts. We have to make a run in our last 10

[Rawdawg]

Reed played 10 minutes tonight and was -12. The writing is on the wall?

[parabrave]

I wish we still had Garcia and Fountain for this team.

[R2Dawg]

Again don't get lured by the siren's song. We occasionally will shoot well enough in a game to hang. But in the end we do not have the talent to win. Jans better get on his portal horse or hope he likes fishing with his kids.

Two lucky 3s the last two games by other team and they win. Get a bounce in either one and we won two in a row and on the bubble. This team is on the edge of doing some things.

Course we may not win anohter game either. Going 1-8 will take its toll.

[R2Dawg]

Jans is figuring out who to play too. McNair getting some more, Shaq more, Reed less. Davis playing better lately. PT by players has hurt us big in SEC play

[NCMSTFAN]

I wish we still had Garcia and Fountain for this team.

Keeping Jaykwon Walker and Riley Kugel would have helped us on the offensive end tremendously but when Howland was fired they decommitted. Fountain is solid at LSU but Garcia wouldn't help us much in the scoring department and thats what we need right now

[msstate7]

Davis starting to give us some scoring... 11.3 ppg last 4 games

[HancockCountyDog]

We all knew that BS charge at the end of the first half would be the difference.

It was horrendous. I'm still not over it.

[CJDAWG85]

I did not see it but our radio guys said it was the right call. Could we not have held for the last shot and taken a double digit lead into halftime?

[msstate7]

I did not see it but our radio guys said it was the right call. Could we not have held for the last shot and taken a double digit lead into halftime?

Man, our radio guys didnt see a replay then

[CJDAWG85]

Listening to it… them hitting the 3 at the buzzer, I instantly said watch that shit cost us the game

[schddog72]

Listening to it? them hitting the 3 at the buzzer, I instantly said watch that shit cost us the game

My thoughts exactly!!

[HoopsDawg]

I did not see it but our radio guys said it was the right call. Could we not have held for the last shot and taken a double digit lead into halftime?

Cam was pulling the ball out for the last shot and the official fell for the obvious flop. The TV guys said it was bad on the replay.

[msstate7]

Bama has been called for 2 flops today. Imagine if we had big 12 officials Wednesday night

[RocketDawg]

Alabama is getting polished by Oklahoma at halftime 50-33 in the SEC/Big 10 shootout. It would be better for us if Alabama could win the game, I'd think. Auburn lost earlier to West Virginia.

[RocketDawg]

Bama has been called for 2 flops today. Imagine if we had big 12 officials Wednesday night

What's the penalty for a flop? Does the flopee get called with a foul?

[msstate7]

What's the penalty for a flop? Does the flopee get called with a foul?

Technical foul, I think. Oklahoma got FTs

[RocketDawg]

Technical foul, I think. Oklahoma got FTs

Good. It's about time they made flops against the rules and actually call them. Now if they'd only do the same for fake football injuries.
